Guest guest Posted December 6, 2008 Report Share Posted December 6, 2008 I also am interested in this. I have a two month old that I am not planning giving anythinf but breastmilk until he is 6 months at the earliest, which is the standard recommendation from the World Health Organization, as well as most breast feeding organizations. Anybody find anymore info on this? thanks- Meg N Subject: Re: Gluten Conference To: trad-foods-MN Date: Saturday, December 6, 2008, 4:11 AM can you give more info on this research?

No more information, but definitely a thought. Whenever I hear some " new " information, I evaluate it in the light of human history. I pretty much ignore the last hundred years as our foods have been so corrupted. In history, there are some people who believe that humans didn't eat grains until relatively recently (by which they mean within the last several thousand years). I don't want to get into that debate, so for the purpose of this question, I will ignore the disputed period of history. The period of history when humans have consumed grains and up until food manufacturers began distorting our food is the time period I would look at. When did human babies begin to eat foods other than breastmilk and what did they eat? I think the answers to those questions are important. Terri -- Be Yourself @ mail.com!
