- 2016-12-16 Healthy body: What is gluten?
Here’s the first—and extremely misleading—line of the article…
“Gluten is a protein found in wheat and all related grains (bulgur, durum, einkorn, semolina,spelt ,kamut , triticale, and faro) rye, barleyand oats.”
1. Einkorn has a very small amount of gluten (1.21%) as compared to modern wheat (9.92%).
2. Einkorn has only 14 chromosomes. Later grains likespelt ,kamut and farro have 28 chromosomes. Modernfrankinwheat has 42, making it extremely difficult to digest.
3. Some studies have found that certain amounts of gluten are necessary for good health. Forexample: https://goo.gl/luRz9z
4. Chances are that your supplier of einkorn would not dream of messing up their precious grain with the glyphosate (Round-up) that modern wheat farmers have come to depend upon.
5. A good einkorn grower will allow the cut einkorn to set in shocks for a week or two before gathering it to separate the grain from the chaff. This allows internal enzymes to activate making the grain more easily digestible. Modern wheat farmers “combine” the two processes—cutting and separating—never allowing these enzymes to activate.
- 2016-12-14 Gluten-free diet may not promote good intestinal health. Einkorn is not gluten-free. But it is very low gluten compared to modern wheat. The big difference is that einkorn has only 14 chromosomes. Later grains like
spelt ,kamut and farro have 28 chromosomes. Modernfrankinwheat has 42, making it extremely difficult to digest. - 2016-12-09 The Ultimate Guide to Asian Rices. Interesting that the “keepers” of rice have allowed the varieties to flourish while wheat has mostly devolved into one unhealthy GMO type.

^ I saw an image the other day on facebook with the words “IT’S NOT THE GLUTEN. IT’S TH E GLYPHOSATE!” I appreciated the sentiment. But
1. The original wheat, einkorn, that has played such a crucial role in history before modern science turned it into a monster;
2. That original wheat being shucked in the field where it is left for a week or two before the kernels are separated from the chaff. This standing time—and exposure to the elements (dew, rain, temperature variations)—activates enzymes within the kernels that help make the einkorn—along with its healthier form of gluten—more fully digestible.
So avoid the glyphosate AND the hybrid toxic gluten AND the inactivated, sterile kernels. Start getting your wheat from the company that always puts your health first…and treats its grains with the same TLC as it does its oils.

Good article. Correction on the section about einkorn: Einkorn is not harder to grow. In fact, it’s
more hardy and less disease-prone than modern hybrid wheat. But the hybrid type is preferred because it is shorter and produces more berries per volume of chaff.
