The Gluten Issue
Even if you are not “gluten sensitive,” is it still beneficial to cut out gluten?
Yes, absolutely, 100 percent!
Why? Why is gluten bad? Because of a farming technique called crop desiccation and a provocative chemical named glyphosate.
Non-organic wheat fields are soaked in Monsanto’s signature Roundup before harvest. This method is referred to as “desiccation.” This accomplishes the following:
It makes wheat die early and go “to seed,” which increases production.
It kills competing rye grass and other weeds, which makes it easier to harvest.
There is nothing good about eating wheat and gluten-containing foods because of how they are farmed. Reuters says that “The EPA is conducting a standard registration review of glyphosate.”
In the meantime, refrain from eating non-organic grains unless you grow them yourself. I recommend cutting them out of your diet completely.
