Hi, Deborah,
You mentioned organic sprouted wheat bread does not give you any trouble ?
Currenlty along with Ted spending time researching Lectins ( supposed to be toxic and speculated to cause autoimmune problems ). Pls see lectins
Proteins in autoimmune diseases and inflammation and
The Challenging Puzzle: Extinguish the Volcano.
I wonder if sprouting of wheat destroys lectins?
Just now noticed the following from
DIETARY LECTINS"Raw and relatively unprocessed foods are becoming more fashionable among health-conscious individuals in the Western world. Given the abundance of food in prosperous countries, such persons are therefore exposed to greater doses of dietary lectins than at any time, probably, in human evolution. The current fashion for sprouting beans and grains is therefore to be encouraged in this context, since sprouting in most cases causes a sharp diminution of lectin content within a few days (17). "
Rgds.,
Krishna
