Americans Are Addicted to Wheat



I probably said this hundreds of times but only to make a point of how hard it is to get wheat out of our diets. I didn't know that gluten, the protein found in wheat, actually digests into opioid peptides which stimulate the same receptor sites as morphine and heroin. Could it be that we are literally self medicating by eating bread, muffins and pasta?
