What Agricultural Foods Can Do To Your Body

It is logical to conclude and easy to demonstrate that modern agricultural foods such as grains and legumes, corn, wheat, soy and so on are foods that are not especially compatible with optimal human health, particularly when consumed in any significant quantity.  Grain consumption has been linked with allergies, food sensitivities, autoimmune disorders, colon cancer, pancreatic disorders, mineral deficiencies, celiac disease, epilepsy, cerebellar ataxias, dementia, degenerative diseases of the brain and central nervous system, peripheral neuropathies of axonal or demyelinating types, and myopathies as well as autism and schizophrenia, to name a few (Cordain 2002).  Legumes are particularly rich in starch-roughly 60 percent of their composition-and contain numerous anti nutrients that can cause mineral deficiencies and other problems.
