Q: We just changed to a "whole wheat and whole grain diet".

Since all the news about "white flour and white rice" not being healthy choices, we changed to wheat and whole grains.  Now your article about a wheat-free diet, sure does make everyone confused.

Hi Muriel,

 

I have read some of the articles by Dr. Davis and understand his point of view; however, he and I are on different pages when it comes to wheat.  I am not anti-wheat and believe it has its place as part of a heart healthy diet.  Of course, moderation is always the bottom line and you need to follow a well-balanced diet to achieve heart health. 

 

All the best,
