THIS is The Real Reason Wheat is Toxic (And It’s NOT the Gluten!)

THIS is The Real Reason Wheat is Toxic (And It’s NOT the Gluten!) | Health Supreme | Scoop.it
Wheat harvest protocol in the United States is to drench the wheat fields with Roundup several days before the combine harvesters work through the fields as withered, dead wheat plants are less taxing on the farm equipment and allows for an earlier, easier and bigger harvest 

Pre-harvest application of the herbicide Roundup or other herbicides containing the deadly active ingredient glyphosate to wheat and barley as a desiccant was suggested as early as 1980.  It has since become routine over the past 15 years and is used as a drying agent 7-10 days before harvest within the conventional farming community.


According to Dr. Stephanie Seneff of MIT who has studied the issue in depth and who I recently saw present on the subject at a nutritional Conference in Indianapolis, desiccating non-organic wheat crops with glyphosate just before harvest came into vogue late in the 1990′s with the result that most of the non-organic wheat in the United States is now contaminated with it.  

 

Seneff explains that when you expose wheat to a toxic chemical like glyphosate, it actually releases more seeds resulting in a slightly greater yield:   “It ‘goes to seed’ as it dies. At its last gasp, it releases the seed” says Dr. Seneff.

Sepp Hasslberger's insight:

So wheat is sprayed with Roundup just days before harvest, and of course we get to eat the toxin...

The Lethal Suspects for Microcephaly in Brazil, With Zika Virus at the Bottom of the List

The Lethal Suspects for Microcephaly in Brazil, With Zika Virus at the Bottom of the List | Health Supreme | Scoop.it

We often hear that correlation is not causation, so why are world renowned scientists treating the Zika virus as the sole cause of microcephaly in Brazil when there are so many other factors?  

 

This article was originally published at TheEpochTimes.com and republished with permission. Original posting Here. 

 

Since the virus Zika was blamed for a cluster of cases in northeastern Brazil of the devastating birth defect microcephaly, the mainstream media have been dominated by fear of a Zika pandemic. Meanwhile, the real culprit(s) behind the surge in microcephaly in that corner of Brazil have been ignored, with the exception of a few scientists, and even fewer journalists...

Sepp Hasslberger's insight:

"Instead of announcing the Zika pandemic, the three international health agencies should have launched a CSI-type investigation in that quarter of Brazil examining all of the environmental triggers and toxins that might be contributing to the surge in microcephaly.

 

But that didn’t happen..."

Glyphosate Pretending to be Glycine: Devastating Consequences - Stephanie Seneff, PhD

Glyphosate is the active ingredient in the pervasive herbicide, Roundup. Glyphosate's inventor, Monsanto, has assured us that glyphosate is nearly nontoxic to humans. This is blatantly untrue.

 

Glyphosate's toxicity is insidious, and it comes about mainly because glyphosate is a synthetic amino acid. Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins.

 

When you replace glycine, an amino acid, with glyphosate, a synthetic amino acid, in a protein, often the protein no longer works as intended. Sometimes it can't be broken down and it accumulates in the brain, causing neurological disease. Other times, it is inactivated as an enzyme or it can't attach to a membrane.

 

Glyphosate also pretends to be glycine at glycine receptors. Glycine is a neurotransmitter, but glyphosate fools the receptor and then doesn't behave as expected. This wreaks havoc on human physiology in multiple ways, leading to a nearly complete explanation for the strong correlations between the rise in glyphosate usage on crops and the increased incidence in a host of chronic modern diseases, including diabetes, obesity, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, ALS, adrenal insufficiency, anemia, spina bifida and autism...

Sepp Hasslberger's insight:

Roundup (Glyphosate) interferes with important pathways in our metabolism. Yet it is universally used in agriculture today. They even spray a few days before harvest to dry up the plants evenly...

 

It's a long lecture, more than an hour, but the important info is in the first 15 min (with much more to come if you can spare the time)... anyway ...

I think an immediate ban on production and use of the stuff would be in order...

A common neonatal medical procedure is circumcision, which typically occurs during the postpartum hospital stay, within the first two days of life for a vaginal delivery and first four days for a cesarean section [34]. Prior to the 1990’s circumcision was generally performed without analgesics. A 1994 study by Howard et al. found that when paracetamol is given regularly every 6 hours for at least the first 24-hour postoperative period, infants demonstrated decreased responses to pain [35]. This study lead to the development of circumcision pain management guidelines by the American Academy of Pediatrics [36] and others [37-39]. These guidelines include the suggestion of a first dose of paracetamol two hours prior to the procedure, and doses every 4–6 hours for 24 hours following the procedure. Thus newborn males often receive 5–7 doses of paracetamol during the developmentally vulnerable initial days of life. Variations in circumcision frequency in different populations allowed us an additional approach to investigate the correlation between paracetamol use and ASD prevalence. This hypothesis seemed particularly relevant in light of the approximately 4.6 times higher prevalence of autism in males compared to females [23].

You’re going to want to sit down for this one. I’ve had some folks burst into tears in horror when I passed along this information before.

Sepp Hasslberger's insight:

How come you allow and even recommend (it's the harvest 'protocol') glyphosate poison to be applied to a food grain 7 to 10 days before harvest?

Is it any wonder people get sick eating foods containing wheat? 

Here's a campaign to get the European Union to end use of the poison altogether...

Fructose inhibits the stimulation of insulin by glucose, so this means that eating ordinary sugar, sucrose (a disaccharide, consisting of glucose and fructose), in place of starch, will reduce the tendency to store fat. Eating “complex carbohydrates,” rather than sugars, is a reasonable way to promote obesity. Eating starch, by increasing insulin and lowering the blood sugar, stimulates the appetite, causing a person to eat more, so the effect on fat production becomes much larger than when equal amounts of sugar and starch are eaten. The obesity itself then becomes an additional physiological factor; the fat cells create something analogous to an inflammatory state. There isn't anything wrong with a high carbohydrate diet, and even a high starch diet isn't necessarily incompatible with good health, but when better foods are available they should be used instead of starches. For example, fruits have many advantages over grains, besides the difference between sugar and starch. Bread and pasta consumption are strongly associated with the occurrence of diabetes, fruit consumption has a strong inverse association.

Dr Ray Peat also says...
After decades of “education” to promote eating starchy foods, obesity is a bigger problem than ever, and more people are dying of diabetes than previously. The age-specific incidence of most cancers is increasing, too, and there is evidence that starch, such as pasta, contributes to breast cancer, and possibly other types of cancer.

The epidemiology would appear to suggest that complex carbohydrates cause diabetes, heart disease, and cancer. If the glycemic index is viewed in terms of the theory that hyperglycemia, by way of “glucotoxicity,” causes the destruction of proteins by glycation, which is seen in diabetes and old age, that might seem simple and obvious.
