[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree with all the criticism of the processed garbage and use of Roundup --- I just find it really hard to believe that your gut flora and things like that would re-set after only a couple weeks in Europe.
I also doesn't seem to explain OP -- who says that she eats mostly organic stuff so Roundup and HFCS and similar additives would not seem to be a real issue.

The flour thing is interesting, but seems to me to be[b] less likely to cause an issue for people that aren't gluten intolerant.[/b]  Is there anyplace one can buy European style flour?  I might try it as an experiment for a few months just to see.  [/quote]
I think that there are probably other factors as well. I was trying to see if higher gluten content also makes the flour more calorie dense, but it's hard to find that exact info. In general, though, I wouldn't be surprised if having a different balance of macro-nutrients in our crops vs. European crops makes a difference.[/quote]

Higher gluten is higher protein, not sure that makes a lot of sense. [/quote]
