Lots of valid opinions and insights posted here. I agree that what works for one will not necessarily work for another, that is true. However Dr. Perlmutter makes a valid point when he states that the majority of doctors have always told us that what you eat has no effect on the skin (your body's largest organ). This is troubling. Does that mean I can ingest cyanide and not have any problems? Does that mean the pills doctor's prescribe don't affect us in any way...what about skin rash side effects from prescription medications? EVERYTHING we eat or put on our skin affects our bodies in one way or another. I pose another question. If genetically modified foods are "safe" for human consumption, why is the food industry so opposed to GMO labelling?? Can they not come up with their usual spin to get all the "sheeple" to follow? I don't buy that for a moment. This is similar to the tobacco industry telling the public for years that cigarettes were safe. They had studies proving otherwise that were kept from the public. Eventually, all the studies on the dangers of GMO, wheat included, will come to light but it has to start with the purchasing public. You vote every time you shop for groceries..One person CAN make a difference! The book is DEFINITELY worth the read. It will make you angry that the government that you thought was protecting you is easily bought by lobbyists... Question, question, question, and research, research, research!
