Besides, he didn't start off with a cool idea for selling books and then find studies to support it, he is a cardiologist. He has had thousands of patients. Any medical doctor, any researcher would resent such a statement and immediately argument it.
Where is his database of patients? Wisconsin? So, Wisconsin is good enough to represent ALL of the USA, ALL of your hemisphere, ALL of the planet?
Any California, Florida, Alaskan or New England medical practitioner would immediately argue with that.
Not to mention anybody anywhere else in the world.
I have watched Dr.Davis' video on Youtube and the FIRST thing he says is "
modern wheat [in the USA] is genetically modified and is not the same as our grandparents ate many years ago".
THAT line has been understated all along.
Other than that, suggesting to use ground almonds instead of wheat flour, or even flaxseed...
For heaven's sake, in Europe we use linseed as a PAINT stabilizer, and he wants us to EAT it?
I don't care if flaxseed is theoretically edible, so are cats and goldfish, and even processed cow dung is theoretically edible, but I pass all of the above.
Happy Thanksgiving to you all, eat your WHEAT biscuits and your CORN bread and your pumpkin pie with a proper crust and enjoy it all !!! Parting shot: in a science fiction book of his, biologist and SciFi author Isaac Asimov observed that
the human body requires three generations to adapt to a new environment, in his case, a 2++G superplanet where the original settlers required artificial transportation and their grandchildren would happily trot about.
Now... Isaac Asimov was a BIOLOGIST and taught in University... he's got to be credible...
