I don't understand what that means.


Right. Getting cause and effect wrong by ignoring a ton of other
contributing causes.


Not if you do the experiments on yourself, as I described.

Remove wheat, feel better.


Well, isn't that reason enough?

If you also want to find out why you feel better, and how you can
prevent the potential for disease by doing it, read the book.

Credit the most recent mutations in the
wheat genome. Bzzt. Fail to take into account the carbs, the fact that
people have long been intolerant of wheat in specific and grains in
general.


Again...if you eliminate wheat, and then, say, replace the wheat carbs
with other carbs, it can't just be carbs in general, can it?

Before you reply, think about that one for a minute or two, okay?

Should we go low carb? Yes. Cauliflower beats any sweet or starchy
food. Should we limit grains in general and consider them no more
valuable than any other vegetable carb gram for carb gram? Yes.


But wheat is not just another carb. That's the point you keep talking
around. READ THE BOOK.

"Wheat Belly" is a stunt to make it sound like it's not Atkins. The
book could have been "French Fry Belly" and had much the same result.


You're wrong, Doug. Read the book. Plus, it's actually pretty silly of
you to argue against the book without having read it.
