Celiac Disease Rates Skyrocket: Up 400% in Last 50 Years

Excellent idea to have people screened for Celiac as part of a normal health regimen–especially if the possibility for developing it is determined by DNA.

Genetic engineering has robbed us of our daily bread!

Rice (alone) has significantly contributed to keeping entire civilizations alive for centuries. Asian civilizations were built on fish and rice. Between Asia and Africa, genetic strains of Oryza sativa and Oryza glaberrima were domesticated anywhere between 9000 and 14,000 years ago, but in archeological research, the grain dates back to approximately 8000 BC. Although the exact history of rice continues to be debated, there is no question it has remained a stable and important food source for over half the world.

Now, because of Big Ag and corporate greed basing unsubstantiated claims that rice must now be adulterated and genetically altered in order to produce sufficient supplies for the world's ever-growing populations, rice faces a questionable future just as many other poisoned crops have faced.

Bill Gates starts off his article with, “Today, more people are living healthy, productive lives than ever before.” Really? There is little question that several diseases including obesity, cancer, celiac disease, psychological disorders, Alzheimer's, and many others are growing exponentially due in part to the chemical engineering and hybridizing of our food supplies while all involved from the engineers, seed producers, bakers, ranchers, butchers, grocers, and every handler in between increase their profits.

As one small example, anyone who has experienced celiac disease or gluten sensitivities, or knows anyone with this surprise attack, knows that their only alternative is to eliminate wheat, barley, rye, along with any gluten containing product from their diet. As hard as they try, gluten hides in just about everything and when parts per million (ppm) matter to a healthy gut, it is nearly impossible to totally eliminate gluten. When these grain crops were contaminated by corporate science for profit, there was little thought given to the fact that the process would reduce necessary enzymes and nutrients while increasing gluten 4x or 5x the limit that most human systems could digest. Celiac is more complicated than one without experience or extensive research would imagine. It is published that those afflicted with celiac live shorter lives. There can be as many as 400 symptoms including liver disease and cancer. There are alternatives such as quinoa, almond flour, tapioca, and sorghum, (corn is nearly all GMO), but an important nutritional alternative for a sufferer of celiac at this time is rice. 

Plain ole white rice is a great source of niacin, magnesium, manganese, phosphorus, folic acid, iron, thiamine, and selenium. Who knows what ill fated engineering may do to reduce these nutrients and possibly turn the grain into yet another mass-produced, poisoned product of our diet. 

When the time comes that adulterated rice causes even more ill side effects and disease, don't worry, Big Pharma may have a pill for that. These crops are not scientifically altered for the benefit of mankind. They are altered for the profits of a few. 

According to Ricepedia, "Today, people can visit the only remaining rice plantation in South Carolina that still has the original winnowing barn and rice mill from the mid-19th century at the historic Mansfield Plantation in Georgetown, South Carolina. The predominant strain of rice in the Carolinas was from Africa and was known as "Carolina Gold." The cultivar has been preserved and there are current attempts to reintroduce it as a commercially grown crop."

I will stick with Carolina Gold rice and continue every small effort to advise the Bill Gates of the world to LEAVE RICE ALONE!
