One slice of wheat bread makes sugar level higher like two tablespoons of sugar. Should we avoild wheat more than gluten? Of course! Wheat has changed in the past years.

How to choose good bread?
Wheat is in a lot of products: bread , cakes, soups and alcohol. For many years it was modified, so it is difficult to find wheat like our grandmothers used to bake bread. Nutritional value and quality of wheat has dropped. Why do we gain weight? You may think that it is because of gluten, which is main part of wheat. But it is not all, there are a lot of substances which are fattening.
Starch works like sugar
What happens in body after you eat sugar?
Starch = amylopectin is substance which is very fattening. It doesn't matter if you eat white or dark bread, every bread can raise your sugar level from 70 to 120 mg. Because of starch we have more fat, which also covers our organs. It is very dangerous and can lead to serious problems with heart and liver.
Gluten- hidden enemy
Gluten is mix of vegtable protein in wheat, barley, spelt, oat and rye. It's not difficult to find it in products which we eat: pizza, bread, pasta, rolls and other products. Gluten can make inflammation in the body. Human body reacts to gluten and send impulses which makes the body fight infection. Because there isn't infection body attacks its own cells which can lead to no immunity. More and more people have celiac disease, which is intolerance of gluten.
Sport is healthy addiction
Wheat have not only starch and gluten but also substance which works like drugs. It's mainly because of it that we like products from wheat. We get addicted quickly and we want to eat more. When you eat these products you produce substance similar to endorphin which you produce when you do exercise. It influences reward center in your brain causing feeling of satisfaction.

Questions to presentation are:
After that presentation will you eliminate wheat from diet?
Have you ever heard about this problem?
I try to reduce it more and more but it's very hard to do it. Wheat is not only in bread but also in pasta, cakes, pizzas etc. That's my biggest problem :(
A sandwich might have a little salad inside but the bulk of what you are eating comes from the bread, but by removing the bread and eating instead a huge salad with a variety of ingredients, you will be better nourished and more able to absorb the vitamins minerals it contains.
Do not eat gluten free products unless they are wheat free and grain free. By removing gluten from wheat, it is usually replaced with rice starch, corn starch, tapioca starch etc. Although they are now gluten free and may cause the same immunological response, the carbs (mainly the amylopectin A it still contains) will still break down to glucose and still cause an insulin spike and still cause hunger, fat storage, and gain weight (and the muffin top).
The corn starch, potato starch or starch found in all kinds of beans are good for you, but starch in wheat is bad and it kills you.
Starch can raise your blood sugar from 70 to 120, but it’s normal, it’s all in the range of heathy person blood sugar level. The proper fasting glycaemia should be in range 70-99, and after 2 hours of oral glucose tolerance test it should be below 140.
Of course eating too much starch can lead to obesity but eating too much of anything can cause it so I don’t see why only the starch is bad.
“Gluten can make inflammation in the body”, yeah I agree but only if you are allergic to it or have celiac disease, and let’s be honest now almost everyone has alleged gluten allergy because it so popular and hyped by people who have no idea what they are talking about but call themselves “experts”.
Oh and the same scientist who found “non celiac gluten sensivity” in his latest studies has shown that it doesn’t exist. His article was published in the medical journal “Gastroenterology”. Here you can read more about it https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23648697.
I have been on special diet for 3 months. This diet was prepared by experienced trainer. One of points was elimination products with wheat element. After one month I felt better, healthier and lost body weight. To sum up, for people who don't like to do any sport, good option would be reducing wheat elements in everyday diet.
Lazy soultion but work :)
