It's a simple protien contained in wheat and grains, naturally occurring, that's been consumed for millennia but suddenly a few people decided it's the latest thing that's bad for you. Basically lol. Some people do supposedly have an allergy to it, which is a problem because it's in most processed foods.

In the last 100 years, we have seen dramatic increases in chronic inflammatory conditions, as well as degenerative diseases, and there seems to be no end in sight. Contemporary life – with its constant barrage of pollution and high stress – certainly plays a role, but research points to something else. Studies show that many modern-day illnesses and disorders such as; Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD), Attention Deficit Hyper-Activity Disorder (ADHD), Autism, Anxiety, Anemia, Cancer, Crohn’s, Depression, Dermatitis & Skin Disorders, Allergies, Epilepsy, Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis, Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), Lupus, Multiple Sclerosis, Migraines, Rheumatoid Arthritis, and Schizophrenia can often be traced to the high protein wheat we eat today. In addition, these health problems may be exasperated by the fact that our exposure to gluten has reached a level never seen before in our evolutionary history.
It is important to understand that the wheat we eat today is not the same as the wheat our forefathers ate. Theirs was a simple grain. It contained low levels of gluten and was fairly difficult to mass harvest prior to the agricultural revolution. Gradually over the centuries, this simple wheat was cultivated into a high-protein, high-yield crop, leading to an ever decreasing genetic diversity. Furthermore, most wheat strains we consume in the United States today are genetically altered, leaving us with highly cultivated versions of wheat that are relatively new to our bodies from an evolutionary perspective.
anyone else baked and mellow? :Sharing One:

Can everyone please stay seated......:AFN Site News:..I'm bringing the AFN sniffer dog in....
If she doesn't get excited by you..you haven't Smoked enough and will be asked to leave Live Tokers until your levels have been topped up.
Who let the bloody dogs in ??????????????
I have been abused! To put it bluntly.....the mongrel tried to rape me.
All I was doing was passing through the office looking for a stamp and an envelope and BOOM it was on me. Dribbling and snarling and tearing me with its claws. Ohhh it was horrible and terrifying. I had to fight with all my strength to throw it off my back and make my escape. My clothes are shredded and I look a bloody mess. I may have to go back to see my shrink to recover from this.
The Dog ? K9 ?
Naw, it was the future Mr Mossy. Hell hath no fury like a fiance scorned.
I'm sorry. Lesson learned. A humble eP.:dunno:
Look out AFN! B16guys cooking! B16girl hates when i cook. Today its roasted think different Buds cooked at 125f for 1 hour and pig ribs! Yum yum yum. Ill.be sleeping in 45 min.

Alkaloid Addiction.....
...first canna..now he is reinforcing it with Chilli........
I'm worried the chilli is his gateway drug..leading him on to stronger things.....and don't anybody tell me they didn't get the connection between chillies and canna..LL Good Tokers grow chillies...Aunty is on to you....you dirty little Alkaloid Addicts...
___________________________________________________________________________________
Yes--the connection. One can eat, smoke and vaporize both Chillies and Canna. I do hear vaporizing Chillies is the ultimate experience.
Cheers

Good stuff Banana. Tell us more and/or start a thread in medical if you are so inclined.
Should drop by this thread more often.
Have wondered why--the recent questioning of wheat and gluten. For wheat has been one of our most important crops. The fertile valley in Middle East was a vast wheat field in some areas.
Reading about early Roman history the staple food was a bowl of wheat a day and soldiers prepared there own in the field. Meat consumption was not as, substantial, as one would have expected. An interesting tidbit was that Roman's including soldiers rarely ate in the AM. Most only one tiny meal late in day. And their wheat must have been whole unrefined. In a book I read--stated most just drank water in the AM.
Didn't realize our wheat is not the shall I say--original strain. Wonder is that why one sees some wheat products tagged as heirloom old world wheat.
Cheers

Morning Stoners...:Hookah:..wake & bake time....
That is what I am Talking about evol...and Smithee.
IF we Understand the Beast..there are other ways to Treat it.
Timely Link cheers evol..:tiphat:
Put your fingers up and tick these off...
caffeine..chillies...tobacco..cannabis...cocaine..morphine..heroin...(All Alkaloids..)
Now..that has to be a List of the most Common Bad Habits in the general population...legal..illegal..and prescription
Who Hasn't got One of those habits..?
If it is an Alkaloid deficiency that we are unwittingly self-medicating..
..it puts a different slant on what we are led to believe about drugs and addiction.
Alkaloid deficiency..treatment...supplement Alkaloids into the diet to Cure the deficiency...really Simple meds.
Give the heroin addict massive supplements of chilli...feed the Deficiency...would the body/brain then shut off the Addiction because it's deficiency has been sated....?
FOOD for Thought...huh..?..while you are sitting there Toking....:Hookah:
