I wonder how true this is

:devil I hope I am wrong,but I was wondering if they used Dioxin,to bleach breads and sugar,and other food related items.I hope not.All I know is that shit is really toxic,they use it to bleach paper products,pulp etc.

There was a place in the south called Times Beach that was permantly closed because of Dioxin,same with Love Canel,but Love Canel had more than just Dioxin

Usually I will buy wheat bread instead of white.

Dioxin isn't one Chemical. It's a whole class of chemicals. Noone used Dioxin for anything... It's a biological by-product of... well.. life. Our own bodies make dioxines as by-products of being alive.

I don't know about that but.....my doctor said all whole grains, non bleached foods prefferably organic......as I have gut problems and need fiber. And less sugar.

Your body needs fibor... but it doesn't have to come from grain. Grain isn't actually good for you at all. Better sources of fiber are fresh vegatables and fruits.

which is why it's one of the four recommended food groups!?!? :blink

What the AMA says and what is happening to peoples bodies are not always the same thing...

Humans have not always eaten the way we do now.... infact, if you beleive in evolution... the fact that we used to eat large amounts of raw/nearly raw red meat is why are brains are so big and complex. 10,000 years ago we changed as a people... stopped moving around... started farming.. invented politics... domesticated animals... and started a chain reaction that is still making us fatter and fatter with every generation.

I try to stick to the Paleolithic diet as much as I can. Which means.. I eat like a caveman... very little proccessed grains or sugars... lots of fresh veggies, fruits and meat... berries... nuts...

If you cant eat it fresh from the plant... your not sopposed to eat it. Most beans and grains are poisen. Don;t beleive me? Go find a Soy bean field. Eat a hand full of raw Soy beans.... I'll meet you at the ER.

so you don't eat anything made with flour? no breads, no soups, etc? sounds interesting, if maybe a bit dull. care to elaborate on it? i'm interested to hear how you can make a healthy, well-rounded diet in this manner... =)
