Diabetes, breast cancer etc. are considered to be hereditary. Chances are greater that you will develop the disease if your ancestors had it. But at some point, no one in your family tree had it, and they developed the disease. So one has to conclude that it is in fact not hereditary at all. More importantly, I think modern medicine has accepted this as fact due to no competing hypothesis. Until now.
What if hereditary disease is nothing more than hereditary life style? Maybe a diabetic becomes a diabetic through learning the eating habits of their parents rather than some fixed DNA structure. Maybe these people are not as doomed to a disease as previously thought. If you were to take a person whose entire family tree is riddled with diabetes, and taught them to eat a diet that was not conducive to promoting the disease, would they in fact never get diabetes? I would wager that this, more than anything is what dictates a predisposition to disease.
As us WF people have/are learning, there is a host of diseases that are caused by the consumption of wheat and/or grains. I think our medical system needs to change and quit working to find drugs to mask an ailment, and focus more on what is it we are consuming that is causing the disease. Thomas Edison once wrote that the future of medicine did not involve prescribing medicine, but rather treating ailments through nutrition. I believe he may have been dead on in his belief, but underestimated the power of money and influence. If it could be proven that diet can cure any ailment, would we need Pfizer or Bayer or any of the other pharma companies?
