Why are more people asking What’s With Wheat?

Wheat has been eaten for thousands of years, why oh why it is causing health issues for so many people now? A new eye opening Australian made documentary ‘What’s With Wheat?’has recently been released and is starting important conversations.

Wheat has become the way of life for the modern family. Cereal and toast is served for breakfast, sandwiches for lunch, cakes and biscuits for snacks, pasta and buns for dinner. The thought of giving up wheat horrifies most.

Until I personally went on a search for answers to help my husband heal from a serious bone infection while also searching for a better way to cope emotionally for myself....I had never considered making food changes as I actually though I was eating fairly healthy already. Wasn’t following the food guidelines and ‘everything in moderation’ ok?

I’m very thankful I started down the road of learning, questioning and empowering myself with knowledge. If my eyes hadn’t been open to the powerful role food plays in our health, I wouldn’t know what true wellness feel like. I now feel back in control of my health and moods and it has been life changing.

Eliminating wheat from our diet has eliminated my regular headaches, excess kilos and puffiness, my low moods, back pain and PMS symptoms. My husband’s bone infection healed and he is off all medications. Our immune systems are strong, energy increased and brain fog gone.

As the film’s co-director Cyndi O’Meara, Nutritionist and Founder of Changing Habits says,

“The story of wheat is the story of food. Become educated, become knowledgeable, become aware. Start making changes, step by step, habit by habit and we may be able to create a tsunami of change that will change the health of our children and future generations.”
