Health Controversy Regarding Wheat and Gluten
Modern wheat is no longer the high-protein grain of the past. Through numerous hybridizations and improvements, today's wheat is high in carbohydrates, making it easy to produce flour and pastries, but this has also become a health hazard. Gluten in wheat is a protein that can trigger various inflammatory diseases, including:
- Intestinal diseases (such as celiac disease, Crohn's disease)
- Arthritis, tendinitis, skin diseases (such as psoriasis)
- Allergies, attention deficit, ADHD
- Blood sugar imbalance, diabetes
Even whole wheat bread can raise blood sugar levels faster than pure sugar, putting a strain on the pancreas and blood sugar.

The nature and processing of grains
Grains are the seeds of grasses, which are ground into flour for making bread, pasta, biscuits, and other products. During processing, exposure to oxygen rapidly destroys nutrients, and commercially available flour often loses significant nutrients after being stored for several months.
White bread is often bleached, and studies have shown that bleached flour may cause pancreatic toxicity and diabetes. Although it is labeled as "fortified," the added vitamins are mostly synthetic and cannot compensate for the loss of original nutrients, and may even cause potassium and B vitamin deficiencies.
The transformative power of germinated grains and wheatgrass
Germinating grains (such as in Ezekiel bread) can increase protein content and lower the glycemic index, making it a healthier choice. Wheatgrass, on the other hand , is the tender shoot of wheat seeds after germination; it has extremely high nutrient density and therapeutic potential.
Nutritional advantages of wheatgrass
- Nutritional levels increase by up to 1400 times after germination .
- Rich in 74 kinds of trace minerals (if planted in soil rich in sea salt minerals).
- It can help improve symptoms of diabetes, ulcers, and chronic fatigue.
- One teaspoon of wheatgrass juice powder is equivalent to the nutrition of 1 1/2 pounds of organic vegetables .
Recommended way to drink wheatgrass juice powder
- Drink 1 teaspoon every morning , avoiding consumption before bed (as it may be too stimulating).
- It can be added to water or kale smoothies for drinking.
- It helps boost energy and reduce dependence on caffeine.

Conclusion: The Two Sides of Wheat
Wheat itself is not inherently harmful; the key lies in its form and processing. Refined flour and gluten can cause health problems, while sprouted grains and wheatgrass offer rich nutrition and healing benefits. Understanding the nature of wheat and choosing the right form is crucial for maintaining good health.
