gizzard



Compared with fruits and herbs, bread and grain are very poor in minerals. For example, the mineral alkali such as calcium. Indeed the fact that they are among the most acid-forming foods. Physiologically, we are unable to digest the grain. Enzyme ptyalin in the mouth, we can deal with only a small amount of starch, which is contained in the root and some fruits.

Granivorous species, such as some birds have a special body - the gizzard. What it is? It is something like the second stomach that allows certain types of birds to grind hard grains for subsequent digestion. With such a strong stomach, they can in an instant crush small stones.

In fact, they even swallow them to quickly grind grain. Even metal needles, swallowed by young birds, broken into pieces and removed without causing appreciable harm.

Have you ever seen a chicken or other poultry-eating stones, nails, and other hard and indigestible objects? Then you're probably asking yourself, why animals make these senseless and dangerous things? They are mad? Or they follow your instinct? In reality, they are simply injected into the muscular stomach these items for them to help them to quickly grind just eaten hard seeds.

The birds and domestic birds lack teeth. That's why they swallow whole grains. But since they have to digest them, along with the stomach nature has given them the perfect Corn-crusher. Eaten stones serve as millstones.

But people are arranged differently. They do not have a muscular stomach and can not grind the solid grains or seeds such as beans. This is one reason why this food is not meant for us.

Some may argue that we can replace the gizzard millstones created by people, as well as expose grain cooking for softening, which makes it easy to chew and digest them - so we did a few thousand years. But this does not solve the problem.

The digestive tract of humans and all frugivore too long for effective digestion of heavy starches. The food there is so much time, that gradually begins to wander. Corn - the food is a species of wild and domestic birds, but not humans. We do not have a muscular stomach and other biological features in order to digest the grains properly.

In addition, people are not able to eat such food and enjoy it in the wild. By and large, it is not even intended for us biologically. The species is food for us are fruits and greens.

Here is a list of diseases caused by the use of grains and bread, compiled by Albert Mosseri, on the basis of his experience of the sick people for several decades:

 cold
 flu

sinusitis  bronchitis
 pneumonia

colitis  asthma
 allergic
 diabetes
 arthritis
 atherosclerosis
 heart attacks
