If Wheat is Bad, Why is it Promoted in the Food Industry?

If wheat is really bad for you, then why is it in most of what we would buy in a supermarket?

The fact that wheat does so much more harm than good to the body could arise many questions as to why the food leaders and the government would produce and dispute it into our communities for a “food source”.

Here are a few reasons:

1. Wheat is a multi-billion dollar industry

2. It creates jobs

3. It accumulates money into the economy

4. It is full of opioid peptides which makes it highly addictive, increases consumption

5. And can be modified and packed with artificial ingredients to make it taste really good

6. And sceptics may not so much agree with this one but – Honestly it also creates so many little 'insignificant' health problems (as well as significant ones) that it also helps the medical industry, such as doctors, Medicare and pharmacies to thrive.

I know it doesn't sound like a fair thing to say but most people would agree that the government can be really poor at making good decisions for us when money is involved.

There is so much evidence out there to be obtained, but yet most people are completely unaware about the ways they are putting themselves at risk and potentially over time, letting themselves deteriorate by consuming wheat.

There is so much media, advertisement and propaganda to promote the sales of wheat that it can cause many people to struggle in making the right decisions when it comes to purchasing and eating food, but try cutting it out of your diet, even for just a few weeks, and notice the amazing differences in yourself, body and mind.

It's common knowledge that the supermarket is full of items that are bad for your health. So next time you visit, try sticking to the fresh food isles and enjoy how much better you feel!

I promise to get some creative recipes up in the meantime. :-)
