I commented on this Cleveland Clinic news item a few hours ago. The article recommended whole wheat as healthy. There were many comments regarding celiac disease, sprouted bread, Ezekiel bread, etc. And it is true that research shows that whole grain is healthier than refined grain. (of course the quiestion, "Is no grain healthier than whole grain?", is rarely asked). I commented that wheat could have a starch content as high as 80% or more and whole wheat was more glycemic than table sugar. In a second short comment I mentioned that the purpose in sprouting was to break down phytates which are bad anti nutrients. Both comments where removed. I am shocked. The above is true. Just check nutritional data sites. Read about phytates. Just those comments were made and no other editorial or judgmental content. Does this shock anyone else that my comments were deleted?
