Hugh, On the diet I'm on (Perfect Health Diet, www.perfecthealthdiet.com), I eat 1-1.5 cups of "safe starches" a day (white rice, yams, sweet potatoes, white potatoes), but all other grains are anti-nutrients. I initially tried very low carb, eating none except for fruits and veggies, but found I bonked with prolonged aerobic activity. This summer I have done a 48 hour and 75 hour fast (no food intake at all), with 5-6 hours of aerobic activity a day while camping -- all without bonking. I had food with me but simply did not feel hungry.
Yes, wheat has changed significantly, especially in the last 2000 years. Like you, we use honey, very sparingly. Yes, eating this way eliminates processed foods entirely, which may seem daunting or burdensome, but we've found it amazingly freeing. We've also found that any animal products from animals eating grain have a similar effect, so only eat 100% grass fed or wild caught meat, fish, and dairy. No everyone is so sensitive, and can handle eggs and bacon and other things that can't be found without grain supplement. By calories, my diet is 70-80% fat, 15-20% protein, 10-15% carbs. I have a lot more brain clarity, cushion, and energy than previously.
