    There has been insufficient time and evolutionary pressure for complete adaptation to seed consumption to arise in Home sapients. As a result, individuals that tolerate grains and legumes should be considered the minority, not the majority.

    Tell that to Asia

    I'll pull up some studies that explain the portion of their diet this makes up, as well as the fact that all grains are not created equal. The way they cook their rice also has a differing effect than the foods we eat. (I'll have to check to get all technical. I don't have a biology background and always have to look stuff up.)

    Please listen to his lecture. Lalonde is great, and he is not one to overstate his case.

    Well you have to start somwhere, and I may not have been on this forum for very long but I have been studying a lot of different things because its interesting and everybody is different. I have found some great things that have helped me with my weightloss so I like to share it. Sorry if my sharing offended you.

    I guess we should just avoid all foods and die of starvation then. Really, until the magic food pill that gives you all your nutrients without actually eating any real food comes out...oh wait...people think it did.

    Never mind

    My Type I diabetic husband can not eat a lot of corn, he has to stick to strict portion sizes with all starches, including corn, or he sees spikes in blood sugar. We use it as a starch component, not a vegetable. So if we have corn as part of a meal, it replaces another carb.

    You should watch "Food, Inc.", that will certainly make you think twice about eating corn, or eating anything that is force fed corn, aka: cows, chicken, pigs, and even some fish. Monsanto has a monopolistic grip on the farming industry and treat their farmers like crap and other farmers who want nothing to do with them like crap as well. After seeing this movie I steer clear of anything that is GMO'd. You found some awesome information and you will find this movie eye opening.

    I'm still looking for the one that explains the difference in the cooking methods of rice, which kills off... something (darn my non science background). Actually - it MIGHT be in Lalonde's lecture.

    If you want some help, they eat mostly white rice, not brown and white rice has lower phytate content. But if lower phytate content made grains more tolerable then there shouldn't be an issue with people eating refined grains

    Thank you for sharing!

    I am troubled by the number of people here who bash others who are sharing information they have found. The purpose of these boards is to support and motivate. Not bash. If you disagree, use some class and do so in a civil manner.

    Or maybe the purpose of the boards is inform, not fill people's heads with nonsense.
