Well, welcome back to the Dr. Gundry Podcast. I'm going to share three so-called healthy foods that are actually wrecking your health,

and why I recommend avoiding them at all costs. First of all, whole grain bread.

For decades now we've been hearing that whole grain foods are good for us, but the truth is whole grains are actually behind some of the most common health issues there are in the modern era.

Remember, up until 10,000 years ago, human beings did not eat grain. It did not exist as a food.

Human beings actually shrunk about a foot over 2,000 years when they started eating whole grain bread.

Shrunk, and that's pretty scary.

Now, there's a difference between white breads and whole grain breads.

And up until a couple generations ago, everybody ate white bread. In fact, still much of Europe eats white bread rather than whole grain bread.

In fact, aristocrats and the rich always fought over who was going to get the white bread, and it was felt that the brown bread was for peasants.

Why did they do that? Well, it wasn't for social status. It was actually because they felt better.

Why? Because the hall of grains is where most of the really nasty lectins reside.

And one of the worst lectins in wheat is called wheat germ agglutinin, and that's in the hall of wheat.

Wheat germ agglutinin is a very tiny lectin that sadly can pass through the wall of our gut without having leaky gut.

And as researchers have shown, wheat germ agglutinin can actually bind to insulin receptors blocking the effect of insulin and making insulin store more fat.

And it can also bind to receptors on the wall of our blood vessels causing inflammation and attack on our blood vessels.

So we certainly don't want that. Now, white bread is no better for you than wheat bread because white bread still has gluten.

Number two, it's been refined into a very, very white powder of starch molecules.
