He could not help but notice the \u200emultiple \u201cwhole wheat bread\u201d entries. To my dismay, I quickly learned that he was less than \u200epleased.\u200e<\/p>\n<h3 dir=\"ltr\">When did \u201cwhole bread\u201d become synonymous with whole health?\u200e<\/h3>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Our western culture holds a place of honor for the venerable loaf, front and center stage at any \u200emeal or ceremony. The \u201choly bread\u201d is passed row-by-row to the congregation, blessed to usher in \u200ethe Sabbath and swathed in love in our children\u2019s lunch boxes.\u200e<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Ah, the heavenly aroma of fresh bread that fills the air. Joy is preparing homemade bread: \u200ekneading, licking one\u2019s gooey fingers, hand in hand giving form to the glob. Who does not hold a \u200esoft spot in his heart for the divine taste and smell of challah fresh from the oven?\u200e<\/p>\n<h3 dir=\"ltr\">You dump on my bread and you dump on my world\u2026\u200e<\/h3>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2519\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2519\" style=\"width: 716px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/hbne.co.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/BREADphoto-1449792066115-b24f2c87a1b3.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-2519\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-2519 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/hbne.co.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/BREADphoto-1449792066115-b24f2c87a1b3.jpg\" alt=\"BREADphoto-1449792066115-b24f2c87a1b3\" width=\"716\" height=\"477\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hbne.co.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/BREADphoto-1449792066115-b24f2c87a1b3.jpg 716w, https:\/\/hbne.co.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/BREADphoto-1449792066115-b24f2c87a1b3-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 716px) 100vw, 716px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-2519\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">https:\/\/unsplash.com\/gregoryb<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">I especially loved the inner white fluff of warm challah. I would tear out a fistful; roll it hard in my \u200ehands and plop the white ball of yummy directly down the hatch with delight.\u200e<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">My mother was no diehard health advocate, but there were certain foods which would never \u200ereach our shopping cart. \u201cWonder Bread\u201d was not welcome. That was too bad as the ever white \u200eand ever soft loafer was a perfect candidate to make wonder balls. I did so envy my friends who \u200ebrought their white wonder sandwiches to school.\u200e<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">A wheat kernel has three main parts: bran, germ and endosperm.\u200e<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The bran boasts B vitamins, fiber and minerals.\u200e<br \/>\nThe germ harbors antioxidants, vitamin E, B vitamins and fat.\u200e<br \/>\nThe endosperm contains the carbohydrates (energy) and protein.\u200e<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The modern white flour industry has its roots in the late 19th century. Bread was no longer a seed \u200eto plate affair, the family table near bare of homegrown fare. With the onset of the industrial \u200erevolution, workers were forced to seek nourishment elsewhere. \u200e<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Long term storage of whole flour was problematic as it quickly became rancid. In an effort to \u200eprevent waste and preserve health, the problematic components were ditched.\u200e<\/p>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\">All Things White<\/h2>\n<blockquote class=\"embedly-card\" data-card-controls=\"0\" data-card-align=\"center\" data-card-chrome=\"0\" data-card-theme=\"light\" data-card-key=\"575300cb785d44e9aa4226b4382f4a7b\">\n<h4><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=8Xu-9FZWUjo\">Hopalong Cassidy Orig Wonder Bread Commercial<\/a><\/h4>\n<p>Original commercial from my collection that was transfered from 16mm film. Wonder Bread commercial form Hopalong Cassidy Show.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/cdn.embedly.com\/widgets\/platform.js\" charset=\"UTF-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Pure white flour was the solution. All things white are beautiful, blessed and simply better. If \u200eformerly white flour was the privilege of the wealthy elite (ancient Rome, Egypt\u2026), suddenly \u200eit became part and parcel of the common man\u2019s diet.\u200e<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The production of white flour meant tossing two thirds of the wheat kernel aside. As such, the \u200epure white powder was naked of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and fat: a dark storm looming in \u200ethe disguise of an edible work of white art.\u200e<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">In time authorities realized that the nutritional void manifested itself as disease and illness. By law \u200ethe white flour was to be fortified with the lacking nutrients. Healthy minded consumers began to \u200esearch for healthier alternatives. In time a demand for whole grained breads developed and later a \u200eboutique artisan trade emerged. In the U.S., the year 2009 marked a turning point: for the first \u200etime whole grained bread outsold its white counterpart.\u200e<\/p>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\">Black is the New White<\/h2>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">It would appear that there is more to the matter than meets the eye. It is not clear how healthy \u200ewheat is, even if it is whole.\u200e<\/p>\n<h3 dir=\"ltr\">It's not what\u00a0it used to be.<\/h3>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Modern wheat is markedly different than the wheat originally found\u200f \u200fin the Middle Eastern basin \u200ethousands of years ago (prior to bringing GMO &#8211; genetically modified wheat into the equation). \u200e<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">In the ancient wheat kernel, for example einkorn and emmer, there is more protein but less \u200echromosomes and less gluten. If an einkorn kernel had only two sets of chromosomes, modern \u200ewheat has six (three ancient sets of parent plants became one)! Even the esteemed spelt has six \u200esets of chromosomes. \u200e<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Gluten is the common name given to two types of proteins found in the wheat kernel nucleus: \u200egliadin and glutenin. These proteins endow the bread with its elasticity. \u200e<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">We can upgrade our health by embracing new habits, big and small alike. At times, a subtle shift \u200eincites massive change. Such was the case when I decided to remove wheat from my diet. \u200e<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">I was no stranger to those moments when I had to eat something NOW! Just like a small child, this \u200elady had to eat and pronto!\u200e<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The first days were challenging to say the least. I wallowed in thoughts about all of the tasty foods \u200ewhich I was denying myself of. The tribulations of kicking any habit are painful.\u200e<\/p>\n<h3 dir=\"ltr\">At the end of the tunnel there was precious light, as my agony gave way to a delicious secret.\u200e<\/h3>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"http:\/\/hbne.co.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/RAINBOW.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-2520\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2520 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/hbne.co.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/RAINBOW.jpg\" alt=\"RAINBOW\" width=\"716\" height=\"403\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hbne.co.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/RAINBOW.jpg 716w, https:\/\/hbne.co.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/RAINBOW-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 716px) 100vw, 716px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Removing wheat from my diet created a shift. I began unintentionally and effortlessly losing \u200eweight. Moreover, all of my urgent hunger pangs dissipated. It was not long before I was able to \u200elook any banquet table square in the eye without feeling pangs of longing or envy. I no longer felt \u200ethat I was missing out.\u200e<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Did you know that it is no simple task to avoid gluten? It is much more complicated than merely \u200eavoiding bread and other baked goods. Gluten is often hidden in sauces and dressings, French \u200efries, meat and vegan patties, soup, fish, hot dogs, puddings, oats, alcohol, cosmetics and many \u200emore.\u200e<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">This week once again I met another \u201csister from another mother\u201d. I grew up with three brothers. \u200eHow exciting it was to suddenly be surrounded by my sisters from other mothers! This sister, who I \u200erecently met on social media, came to visit the land of milk and honey. She is not gluten sensitive \u200ebut rather suffers from celiac disease, &quot;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/glutenfreediva\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The Gluten Free Diva<\/a>&quot; no less!<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">This is an autoimmune disease. The body attacks the gluten protein as a foreign invader. Internal \u200edamage to the small intestine follows and the absorption of vital nutrients is compromised.\u200e<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">I was shocked to learn of the kissing regimen. Imagine that every time you wish to kiss your celiac \u200esweetie you must first rush out to brush, floss and rinse. Talk about putting a damper on a romantic \u200emoment\u2026\u200e<\/p>\n<h3 dir=\"ltr\">Only about one of every 100 people suffer from this disease.\u200e<\/h3>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\">What is all of the Fuss About?\u200e<\/h2>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">On my healing path I met with more than one healer who instructed me to abstain from wheat \u200econsumption and often remove all gluten from my diet. Even the conventional doctors advocated \u200ea blood taste to rule out celiac disease. Today gluten and gluten free seems to be on everyone\u2019s \u200eradar. \u200e<\/p>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\">Dwarfed Wheat \u2013 Super Gluten &#8211; Super Starch \u200e<\/h2>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Today\u2019s modern dwarfed wheat is a superstar: with both an abundance of gluten and starch \u200e\u200e(amylopectin A). Of particular interest is the lack of a difference in the glycemic index (GI &#8211; \u200emeasuring the rate at which foods impact on blood sugar levels) between that of white and whole \u200ewheat bread! Moreover, while the GI for bread is 71 per portion, the GI for Coca Cola is \u201conly\u201d 63 \u200eand a Snicker\u2019s Bar is \u201cbut\u201d 51!!!\u200e<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Modern wheat is an exceptional player, great at raising blood sugar and distending \u201cwheat bellies\u201d. \u200eFoods with an elevated glycemic index excel not only at raising blood sugar levels, but at \u200eweakening immune systems, creating low level inflammation and aiding to create fatty livers.\u200e<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The list does not end here. Wheat and gluten have been linked to mood and eating disorders, \u200eautism, schizophrenia, dementia, nutritional deficiencies, diabetes and more.\u200e<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The gluten can damage the small intestine even in absence of celiac disease.\u200e<\/p>\n<h3 dir=\"ltr\">Hunger Pains<\/h3>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Still the list goes on. Gluten has been linked to obesity and bouts of insatiable hunger. As gluten is \u200eprocessed in our intestine, the protein chains are broken down into shorter polypeptide chains \u200ecalled exorphins. These so called \u201cgluteomorphins\u201d bind to the opioid receptors in the brain. Much \u200elike the effects of a runner\u2019s high, a rush of ecstasy ensues as the pearly gates of heaven open \u200ewide. Just like another junky, with shaking hands, in frantic search for the next \u201cfix\u201d the vicious \u200ecycle continues.\u200e<\/p>\n<h3 dir=\"ltr\">Guilty as charged: the accused is the root of our cravings, overeating and obesity. Sound familiar?\u200e<\/h3>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">I warmly recommend that you give it a try. Find the courage to dare and rid yourself of wheat. Do \u200enot look at this as a life sentence, but rather as a trial period. Take the challenge for a period of one \u200emonth. I am willing to gamble that at the end of the month you will not only feel better but see a \u200elighter reflection in the looking glass!\u200e<\/p>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: center;\">Watch as this subtle shift incites massive change!\u200e<\/h2>\n<hr \/>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\">Avocado and Ginger Delights<\/h2>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"http:\/\/hbne.co.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/avo.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-2509\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2509 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/hbne.co.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/avo.jpg\" alt=\"avo\" width=\"716\" height=\"537\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hbne.co.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/avo.jpg 716w, https:\/\/hbne.co.il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/avo-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 716px) 100vw, 716px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">If you haven\u2019t noticed yet, ginger is a permanent fixture in my kitchen.
