【古風按】天然物種間也會發生轉基因的現象（如雜交），但天然發生的轉基因是個極其緩慢的過程，對被轉基因的原物種是如此，而食用者也有一段漫長的生物系統調試和適應過程。現代生物科技其實是人為地加速了這個轉基因的過程，若處理得不當，極有可能導致整個生物圈的內在平衡被破壞，最後全部玩完。 Cardiologist William Davis tells CBS News that modern wheat was created by genetic research in the ’60s and ’70s.
"...there’s a new protein in this thing called gliadin. It’s not gluten. I’m not addressing people with gluten sensitivities and celiac disease. I’m talking about everybody else because everybody else is susceptible to the gliadin protein that is an opiate. This thing binds into the opiate receptors in your brain and in most people stimulates appetite, such that we consume 440 more calories per day, 365 days per year."
Davis recommends that people replace wheat with “real food,” such as avocados, olives, olive oil, meats, and vegetables, as this is “the stuff that is least likely to have been changed by agribusiness.”
