Well one possible reason why Americans report better health and energy levels after switching to a lowcarb, no seed oil, paleo or whatever diet is that seed products in the US are contaminated with various chemicals.
Thus the statement of these experts may be true to some extent.
- noduerme 4y agoThis is an unhelpful conflation between several different health issues, and a wide range of fashionable paranoias. The article isn't to do with pesticide sprayed on grain crops, nor with seed products, nor with the value of "paleo" diets. It's simply about additives in bread. It's irresponsible to mash all those issues together, because glyphosate is a likely carcinogen and needs to be dealt with separately; hydrogenated seed oils are likely carcinogens and need to be dealt with separately too. But given a noncarcinogenic grain supply, there's this other issue of adding magical chemicals to everyday bread or packaged foods. That's what this is about, and trying to make sweeping statements about half a dozen other things that are harmful actually helps make the case that this is less important to regulate.
