White Flour or White Refined Flour Is Unhealthy Food!
White Flour...Often Called White Refined Flour Is Unhealthy Food And Is Historically Associated With The Rise In Heart Disease, Diabetes and Cancer!
The white flour or white refined flour problem.It was not until around the time of Louis XIV of France that the mills that ground wheat into flour became sophisticated enough and folks determined enough to produce white flour or white refined flour. Until that time everyone ate whole wheat or other whole grain products. Ah, but some enterprising budding food scientist managed to refine whole wheat into white refined wheat from which all those light and fluffy pastries the French are historically famous for could be baked. The consumption of white refined flour increased astronomically since that time as did the incidence of Heart Disease, Diabetes and Cancer which were almost unheard of at the time. You see the peasants could not afford refined white flour...it cost, relatively speaking a "kings ransom" to buy compared the the crudely refined whole wheat or other whole grain flours. And do you know what there was no increase of Heart Disease, Diabetes or Cancers among them. They remained as healthy as ever and the Doctors of that time were completely baffled.
Here Is How The Damage Is Done To Our Body!
All the good substances (bran which contains the enzymes necessary to digest the grain and germ) is removed from this flour during the refining process. Then it is bleached with a deadly chemical called "alloxan", a bleaching agent similar to Clorox. This compound destroys the beta-cells of the pancreas, leading to type 2 diabetes.Finally, some coal-tar-derived (carcinogenic – cancer causing) vitamins are added and sold to the unsuspecting public as “enriched”. White flour makes your blood sugar rise almost as much as white refined sugar. Remember the introduction of "Wonder Bread"? The joke is "it's a wonder it doesn't kill you". Sadly, the joke is the truth, since it contains white refined flour and sugar and coal tar derived vitamins in a lame attempt to put back into it the nutrition that was stripped out of it by the white wheat refining process. Thus, began Corporate and Madison Avenue Advertising Firms successful mission to portray bad, unhealthy foods as healthy foods. This marriage of convenience made in Hell is the main reason it is so hard to find good nutrition information. It is also why nearly everybody in the good old US of A is brain-dead when it comes to healthy foods and healthy nutrition. Intestinal infections are a direct outcome of white flour consumption. It gums up and puts pressure on the digestive system because it is nearly devoid of fiber.

Things made of white refined flour has no nutritional value at all, and cause more harm to your body than good. Combining white refined flour with white refined sugar or high fructose corn syrup (more and more these days) and high heat baking, and you have the perfect combination to create all kinds of degenerative diseases such as Heart Disease, Diabetes and Cancer. White refined flour wheat bread has recently been marketed as the "healthier option". Do not be deceived. Additionally, studies have shown that wheat is contaminated with mycotoxin. When consumed in high amount, this germ can be lethal and has been reported to cause rheumatoid arthritis, miscarriages, headaches, infertility, slow growth development in children and irritable bowel syndrome. And the final nail in your coffin, white refine flour and the products made from it converts to sugar rapidly in your body, and have high glycemic indices and contributes to the creation of the already mentioned degenerative diseases.
