Are you Wheat Intolerant?
People often suffer certain symptoms or conditions of which they do not know the cause. It can be frustrating to consistently not feel your best, sometimes people suffer certain nagging symptoms for so long they don't even know what it would be like to be without them. This happens a lot with certain intolerances to food, it may not be immediately obvious and since we eat so many different kinds of foods it can be very hard to realize that a particular food isn't making you feel well.
This article is about wheat intolerance, a relatively rare condition in general, but the most common of all food intolerances. Before examining the symptoms and solutions to wheat intolerance, it's important to distinguish between intolerance and an allergy. The terms wheat intolerance and wheat allergy are often incorrectly used interchangeably. A wheat allergy is just like any other food allergy; it involves an auto immune response to the allergen and consequently produces common allergic reactions in the allergic individual. Wheat intolerance, on the other hand, is a chemical reaction inside the body which is produced due to the body's inability to digest wheat; it is actually much more common than wheat allergy. Wheat can be difficult to digest due to a protein called gluten, and when people have hyper sensitivities to this protein their body reacts negatively, a condition known as celiac disease, or wheat intolerance.
The symptoms of wheat intolerance are frustratingly vague, making the condition difficult to identify. The symptoms also tend to be quite mild at first, and often become more severe as time goes on. Children who have wheat intolerance often exhibit symptoms such as diarrhea, vomiting, and skin rash, but since these symptoms can mean so many things it is very difficult to know if a child in particular has a wheat intolerance.
Symptoms can vary widely for adults, but there is a set of common symptoms which you should be aware of. These symptoms include diarrhea, stomach cramps, bloating, vomiting, constipation, flatulence, nausea, eczema, skin rash, lethargy, weight loss, and irritable bowl syndrome, or IBS. If you suffer a significant amount of these symptoms, it is advisable to just cut gluten out of your diet altogether.
If the symptoms persist, then they must be caused by something else, however if they cease then you probably have a wheat intolerance. All you can really do from then on is avoid gluten as much as possible, which can unfortunately be difficult since so many things have gluten in them. You simply have to educate yourself on what kinds of foods contain gluten and be vigilant. Nowadays there are many more options for gluten free foods than there were previously, so with a little bit of research you should be able to continue to enjoy a wide and varied diet

The Biography of Wheat $27.99 One of the first plants to be cultivated by farmers, wheat as a staple food source made permanent settlements possible. It also inspired the creation of early trade networks. Children will learn how one of the world's most important food crops is grown, harvested, sold, and processed into food products. Topics explored include - how the world's population grew with the advent of wheat-growing societies - how the plow, seed drills, and the tractor increased crop yields - how sea bird droppings were used as the first fertilizer - how the wheat farms of North America became a Dust Bowl during the Great Depression of the 1930s - how wheat is farmed and sold around the world today |

Wheat and Soldiers $36.87 WHEAT AND SOLDIERS CONTENTS WHEAT AND SOLDIERS An Impression by William Henry Chamberlin vii TRANSLATORS FOREWORD by Baroness Shidzue Ishimoto ix EARTH AND SOLDIERS 3 WHEAT AND SOLDIERS 151 Wheat and Soldiers An Impression by William Henry Chamberlin Wheat and Soldiers is, to the best of my knowl edge, the first deeply significant book to come out of the Sino-Japanese conflict. The author, Corporal Ashihei Hino, is a soldier in the ranks of the Jap anese army but the first quality that lifts his work far above the general run of war books is the complete absence of any propagandist element. Hino is neither prowar nor antiwar, neither pro-Japanese nor anti-Japanese. What he endeavors to do very successfully is to give the human side of the Japanese drive for Suchow-fu, in which he partici pated, to show himself and his fellow-soldiers not as legendary heroes but as credible men, their moments of despair and weakness blending with acts of great courage and devotion. Wheat and Soldiers possesses some of the time less, epic character that made Remarques All Quiet on the Western Front, by general agreement, the outstanding book on the World War, And it has already achieved in Japan the phenomenal success of All Quiet on the Western Front in Germany and other countries. Nearly a half million copies have vii viii WHEAT AND SOLDIERS been sold, although only a few months have passed since the book was published. The reason for this extraordinary popularity is obvious. Hino is telling what war really is, with all the elements of pain and terror that are systematically omitted from censored newspaper correspondence and official military pub lications. The Japanese people who have brothers, husbands, sons, friends at the front appreciate this fact and have responded to the appeal of the book in enormous numbers. Before the war Mr. Hino was a well-known writer in Japan and the winner of a literary prize. TRANSLATOR S FOREWORD Less than a year after the outbreak of fighting between China and Japan, the Japanese public was startled by the appearance of a small book entitled Wheat and Soldiers. The cover identified the author as Corporal Ashihei Hino. He was an in fantryman, attached to a Japanese unit fighting in Central China. Wheat and Soldiers generated one of those storms of enthusiasm, common to all nations. It was the common soldier, the ordinary mud slog ger, and his view. And it had, besides, another unique quality. It was written, not in any cloistered study, from the perspective of afterthought, but set down from day to day, while the author was actually on the field of battle. He literally turned from seeing a scene to the description of it. Parts of Wheat and Soldiers are from his diary. Other sections were taken from his letters to his family. The book became an overnight sensation in Japan and then Corporal Hino was identified. His true name was Katsunori Tamai, born as a son of the president of a stevedore guild in Kyushu. He was already well-kno |

Drought Tolerance in Durum Wheat $78.36 Climate change could have a dramatic impact on the wheat crop, which supplies 21% of the world's food calories and covers 240 million hectares of farmland worldwide. Climate change induced temperature increases and annual rainfall decrease are estimated to reduce wheat production in developing countries. Making genetic gains in yields of wheat under rainfed conditions has always been a difficult challenge for plant breeders. Understanding the effect of water stress on physiological and morphological traits becomes the essential step in the development of higher-yielding and more stable cultivars in water-limited environments. The authors examine different morphological and physiological attributes that confer drought tolerance in durum wheat under water deficit conditions. The result indicates that there are potential to improve durum wheat production in water-limited environments. These can be achieved by integrating morphological and physiological traits as indirect selection in conjunction with other yield components. It is believed that this information will be valuable as guidance for future research in water-limited environments |

Three Grains of Wheat $19.92 What would you be willing to give up to discover the world beyond your front door? "Three Grains of Wheat" chronicles Greek island native Emmanuel Papasavas' journey of self-exploration. It is a journey of more than a few steps as he strips away the chaff of his former life as a wheat farmer's son in pursuit of a dream that leads him away from his family and everything he once knew. Picturesque Agios Isidoros - the small Greek village where plumbing was unheard of and money was a rare commodity - is where author Mike Papasavas began his life (and his memoir) more than sixty-five years ago. As a boy, Papasavas knew little except the ways of a wheat farmer's son. Even so, ingrained in him was a desire to discover something beyond his village, beyond his life as young, naive Emmanuel. This yearning led him into the expansive world beyond where he would discover art, poetry, romance, friendships, and much more - though the quest would cost him his name. When he was twenty years old, Emmanuel - now known as Mike - barely saved enough money to buy a one-way ticket to Germany for the purpose of getting a visa...and a new life. But his journey to freedom is a rocky one, finding him up against several nearly insurmountable complications, homelessness and poverty, Mike learns to tackle each obstacle with humor and hope. For him, often times not knowing where he will sleep tonight, faith is his ultimate compass. Mike's determination paves the road toward adventures and misadventures that will forever change him in this culturally diverse travelogue peppered with entertaining stories, personal reflections, and heart-wrenching memories. |

Bread-Making Quality of Wheat: A Century of Breeding in Europe $294.39 Wheat is the world's most important agricultural commodity. In Europe, where wheat is the main staple, bread wheat (Triticum aestivum) covers the majority of land on which wheat is cropped. Wheat breeders and technologists have contributed greatly to the continued success of bread wheat and its products. The bread-making quality' of a wheat variety can be described in relation to the processing its kernels must undergo to make a good bread. Bread wheat kernels must be suitable for proper milling into a flour that can produce a dough capable of becoming fine bread. The type of bread varies depending on local bread-making practices. Part I of this book contains a study of the anatomy and chemical composition of wheat kernels, and of the fundamental difference between soft' and hard' kernelled varieties. It relates these characteristics to the processes of milling, dough-making and manufacturing of bread, and to biscuit and pasta making. The genetic basis for these characteristics is illustrated, and assay methods for characterizing wheat varieties - ranging from Saunders' chewing test to the most recent developments in glutenin and gliadin research - are evaluated. Part II briefly describes - country by country - how bread-making quality has been integrated into wheat-breeding programmes throughout Europe, and how breeders have attempted to resolve the conflict between yield and quality. It describes how quality wheats travelled' around the world - from their endogenic source in Eastern Europe to North America, and back again to Europe. This explains how specific genetic material can appear in the pedigrees of varieties grown in a wide range of agro-ecological zones. In addition to givingan interesting historical survey, the book points the way forward for breeders' efforts in the future. Bread-Making Quality updates and interprets knowledge in a way that makes it particularly accessible for food technologists, breeders, students, and teachers. |
