I had been gaining weight slowly without bread in my diet. All I can think of was I had allowed corn and potatoes back in my diet and maybe a piece of bread every few weeks or so. I saw your videos and then watched Sue Beckers video and decided to give this a try. I ordered the grain mill and a Bosch mixer. After my first, beautiful if I do say so myself, loaf of freshly milled wheat bread I lost 3 pounds!! And I stopped all cravings. No kidding. I am still new to this and haven’t tried everything but I bake all the loaf breads in our house, just made burger buns and rolls as well. I also bake muffins and keep them in our freezer for a super quick delicious healthy breakfast great on school mornings! I am sold on this! My whole digestion has changed and like I said my cravings are gone!! Thank you for your videos and the time you take to share with all of us! Blessings to you all!
April … I am just finding Sue and all this info and trying to figure out what I need and how to get started. Which recipe did you use to start? Is it on Sue’s website?
@@jamimccormack9220 yes she has a basic recipe. I can’t remember how I found it but it is my favorite for bread. I also ordered bread beckers book and mostly use her red paper back binder book (not a bound book) for muffins etc
When I started grinding and making my own bread I noticed I didn’t feel tired or heavy after I ate it! I had given up bread for years and now I can eat it!!!!! Great info!🥰
Words of wisdom. People need to wake up to the crap they call food in the grocery stores. Go back to natural food. Thanks for the info. You really need to write a book.
Almost had a small heart attack. I recently transitioned back to bread, REAL bread because if you. I’m making my own bread from my own einkorn sourdough starter! Started this all about two months ago and am loving it. Big thanks to you. I’ll be grinding my own grains soon too.
😂 Oh my, you scared me! Especially since I just bought a electric grain mill grinder & a kitchenAid mixer to make my life easier. They’ve just arrived so I’m anxious to use them. Have a blessed day. ❤️ from Texas.
I had to start eating less than 20g of carbs in November 2016. Fatty liver. It did the trick. Then my cousin introduced me to her bread. It didn't take much to convince me that it was something to do. So, I have ordered & recieved my berries & bread machine. I am just waiting for my mill to come in. I cannot tell you how excited I am to start. Thank you for this video and all the other ones too.
Thank you! I am new to your channel. I did an "experiment" to see how I would feel after giving up fake bread! Sourdough, crackers, chabatta..etc...well I did lose weight and have been feeling so much better. I want to get back to biblical bread. This came at just the right time!!😃
i gave up buying bread and bread made with supermarket yeast over 10 years ago. I only make sourdough bread, and I put sourdough in pretty much everything from cakes, cookies and pasta
You're not the only person who has told me this. I monitor my blood sugar while pregnant instead of doing those horrible gestational diabetes test, and my blood sugar never spiked at all after eating my bread. Now I didn't have diabetes to start with, but if I eat nothing but a cup of sugar that would raise my blood sugar with or without diabetes lol
Thank you so much for this video and encouragement. I just purchased some whole grain from Azure and I pick it up this week! NOW to find a grain mill! Cannot wait to start this journey and hopefully become more healthy. I love all the biblical reminders you put in your videos. God's true food is the best. Blessings to you and yours!
I am so thankful I found you. You have changed my whole thinking. I have been a bread maker for 40 years and this is a big game changer. My brother has a friend who grows all the good wheats. I have started milling my own berries and following your channel and using your recipes. You are an awesome lady. Thanks for teaching this old lady something new
Great explanation to debunk the white flour controversy. There are so many theories of what we should eat. In our family we need to watch our glycemic index of food because of diabetes, weight and brain health (etc). Thank you for your video, so helpful!
Thank you for you beautiful testimony. I just found you a friend at church recommended you. I already mill my own wheat. I am excited to find a like minded sister in Christ. looking forward to watching more of you videos.
Is this woman not glowing? She looks so healthy and beautiful! Must be the high quality nutrition from the REAL bread... I'm going to start baking my own now. Thank you for the inspiration!
Congratulations on your new home! Love this! Such great info to debunk so much misinformation out there. Thank you! We are all trying to educate the masses that fresh milled flour is the only way to go!
Omg ! I just found your channel and I think God leade to you.I'm a Registered Nirse,and have given up commercial bread because of severe digestive issues with all commercial bread..I haven't baked bread in a long time,and just inherited mother's wheat storage ad her grain mill.I've been researching all the issues with grains and legumes and why we should never eat any of it without soaking it overnight.I'm thrilled to have your channel..fabulous..Bless you.
I just found your channel. After listening to you for just 5 minutes I'm already planning to buy a grain mill and grind my own. I've always had a gut feeling (no pun intended ) that whole grains are good for you. Many of the people who condemn wheat also condemn whole grain oats, fruit, honey and other things that I consider to be superfoods. Thank you
Amen! I believe this is common sense that we get on an instinctive level from God. But there is so much foolishness out there that even common sense becomes controversial.
I recently started watching your channel and got excited about bringing bread back into my diet...then I saw the title of this video and thought ...see...bread is bad and she's going keto or something!! so glad that's not the case. I truly believe and am trying to get back to eating how God intended. 😄
I agree with you. I do what I call a 'not quite Keto' diet. And, in making my own bread - even though I am not yet milling my own grain - I can feel & test the difference in using store-bought 'bread' versus making my own artisan breads. Making my own bread, & eating it, does not give me that high glycemic hit that store-bought chemical filled 'bread'. I can actually have a little bit of bread without having a sugar spike & the jitters. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us.
I see that you have jars in the background, I have obtained a number of 1 gallon wine bottles from the local VFW hall. After cleaning them and removing the label, they make excellent grain containers and they’re my second favorite F word they’re free.
I eat whole grains cooked in a pressure cooker for 8 minutes. My glucose levels have dropped and i don't feel hungry all the time. and i'm losing weight. I'm going to learn to make bread for my family soon.
I started milling my own wheat for bread about 3 months ago, and since then I have less digestive problems, and sometimes none. What I have discovered is every time I eat take out foods, or processed foods, I end up with tummy problems, and other adverse effects. I actually lost some weight when I started milling and baking my own bread. My hubby has even commented on how much he likes the bread now than before. I have a Nutrimill grain mill, and I am waiting for the Wondermill Jr. Deluxe to come in case we are out of power. One other thing I have experienced is a reduction in hunger issues. I want to have good food, and cook from scratch so to speak, but since I am eating real bread, I have no desire to eat things not beneficial.
Wheat and barley are absolutely considered food in the Bible (as a half-German, it always annoys me that rye is not mentioned!). But of course they were talking about einkorn, not super-hybridized modern wheat. From childhood, I have always loved rye bread, and in recent years have been able to purchase bread made from ONLY rye flour, starter, and salt. Miraculously, it doesn’t have a hard crust. Haven’t quite figured out how they do that-they may use one of those oriental methods by adding boiling water to part of the flour. Maybe you can figure it out. Whole rye bread-buttered-is the ideal platform for an open-faced liver sausage sandwich. Swedish-style rye crispbread called WASA bread is available in a sourdough version. My husband has pretty much given up bread to keep his body fat down. He’s been very successful, so if I’m having grain products like rye-einkorn pancakes (crepes) prepared in lard (no sweetener-I enjoy them plain and only fix them once or twice a year. They are very eggy. I also manage to consume the whole-grain version of Ezekiel English muffins, which contain few carbs. My family has a great recipe for rinderwurst (beef sausage), a winter breakfast food that includes steel-cut oatmeal. I’m glad to find your channel-I hope you experiment with rye bread.🥰
Hi there I love your videos can you please show a video of baking with soft white wheat berries baking fruit cakes in general ie fairy cakes and the like how to convert from store bought I'd love to see you baking like this thanks Ps keep up the great videos cheers
I am very happy to know you have done your research on the right side of the information path,thanks for this very informative and enlightening video.😎😎😎
I gave up on store-bought bread when I got my Zojirushi Bread Maker. It works perfectly with fresh-milled flour from my grain mill, and taste TONS better!!
I have tried just about every diet - with grains; without grains and everything in between! I have blood type A Rh factor negative and finally started eating for my type. I eat grains and love my bread! Real bread! I am becoming healthier every day. Finally, I'm eating properly for MY body and stopped listening to others (who may need to eat differently for THEIR best health). May everyone find their own best health! God Bless❣️
I've been milling my own flour and baking my own bread for about a year now. When I first started, I was struck by how dense the bread was compared to what I had been buying at the store. I loved the flavor but it was so much more filling. I've gotten used to that now. At one point, I needed to bake another loaf but didn't have the time and I did need to do some shopping so I went ahead and picked up a loaf of the 100% wheat bread I had been buying off the shelf before I started baking my own, It was "terrible!!" It used to be my favorite but compared to the home made bread from fresh milled wheat, there was just no comparison.
GREAT SUBJECT! I come from a family of German farmers who lost their 7 generation farm forever.... during WWII. Rye is what grew in the worst of soil and the coldest of climates.... even -30F.... it fed the masses in times of famine and war. Bread for the poor was made more from rye than wheat. It's also lower on the glycemic index and is recommended for diabetics. I make 100% sourdough rye breads, pizza crusts, rye sticks, flat breads, pesto monkey bread, etc. with soaked seeds like sunflower and pumpkin, sprouted buckwheat, caraway, and fresh herbs like rosemary, thyme, thai basil and oh, so much more! I was gluten free for years and that along with green juicing and Qigong helped me to overcome some serious health issues including end-stage Lyme's disease and Bell's Palsy. I'm back to sourdough rye and have wheat berries that need to be ground up.... but I just can't bring myself to do it, lol.... once you go rye, there's no going back is what I've found out in the last two years (since Covid - my starter is called Little Annie or Annie Oakley, depending on my mood). Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia runs in my family (4 out of 7 siblings have it) and one of my sisters went gluten free because of the "Wheat Belly Debate". I wonder if she gave up processed foods, animals and their products, and in general cleaned up her intake and environment, would she get better and still enjoy the "staff of life" that you are so describing? BLESSINGS 2U for addressing the Wheat Belly Debate!!!!! It's a topic that leads to other topics for those looking to heal. I could add sooooo much more to this subject. Health and Wisdom should be passed on to each generation. Knowledge is Power and Be the Change come to mind. 💜💚💜💚💜
I’m so happy to read your story. I’ve been discovering rye and learning about it after reading about its low glycemic impact. Now, I’m keeping a rye sourdough starter and making 100% rye bread, tortillas, pancakes, etc. and yes, I’m milking my own berries! Thank God for Azure Standard.
Wow, I just started watching your videos cause I want to milk my own flour, bought a bunch of grain lol but still waiting for my mill to come. I especially enjoy and proud of you not being timid of your faith. Thank you especially for that!
I was a bit shocked seeing the title, but relieved watching your video 😅. I totally agree on all levels!! And yes, God created nutritions for us and men corrupted it 😉…
I started cooking my own bread products as well, because I too believe it's the over processed highly preserved bread products that is the problem and I've lost weight from switching and I actually eat more whole grain products.
A lot of people don't even think about soy and corn flour. Soy disrupts our hormones and can cause many more problems being digested without fermentation. Soy is one of the most genetically modified grains. Corn flour is just a high starch flour, humans can't digest corn unless it is nixtamilized to release all the vitamins and make it digestable. Corn is another highly genetically modified grain. And you are right about store bought bread. But there are beginning to be a lot of good small artisan bakeries that respect grain and who bake in a responsible manner. You just have to look for them, if you can't or don't want to bake your own bread.
I lost over 60lbs “without trying” in that I ate NO CARBS. Period. End Of. I never went hungry. I also put in & planted a rather spectacular veggie garden, mostly using my Grandpa’s baby hoe and trowel. Severe arthritis & fibro has since taken up residence ~ debating to try again and grit my way thru ~ Blessings to you and your work!!!
Good video! Let me add a few thoughts, in general and as a type 2 diabetic: 1. I could be wrong but, from what I have read, the issue with normal flour and "glutin intolerance" has more to do with glysophate being sprayed on wheat. I'm not saying that's all it is, but my understanding is that it *is* a factor. Glysophate. 2. As a diabetic, part of what I am concerned about is *net carbs*. Net carbs is what you have when you subtract fibrous carbs from the total carb count. And, the more fiber you remove from flour, the higher the net carb count. And, as you referred to the glycemic index, this will make it (bread, flour) higher on the glycemic index. I have just begun food storage. Rice, beans, grits, steel cut oats and now I have ordered hard red and soft white wheat berries. I look forward to eating cleaner with the wheat berries. I don't place lots of credence on the medical community. Always double check everything they say you need. I recently saw my family doctor and he agreed, for example, that Zinc and Magnesium is effective for an enlarged prostate. The (not so) funny thing is, the never tell you to just take those things, rather they push big pharma meds like Finasteride which with many people (such as mine) don't even help. I was once told that I had Hashimoto's thyroiditis and that my thyroid would die in five years. Wrong. It's still here. I have learned to do as much of my own research from *solid* sources as I can, to be able to give myself the best care by avoiding bad advice, even from the "experts". ***Question: I'm looking for a good grain mill that won't cost an arm and a leg. One that will work well and can be used with a motor or manually should we have blackouts. Wondering if you have a recommendation. Thank you. Tim
So...do you actually have Hashi's? Unfortunately, I do and have learned about molecular mimicry and why we shouldn't eat gluten. Curious about how you're treating your condition.
I have Hashimotos and I have found the best diet that works well in my situation is the Paleo diet and I know it has no Gluten or dairy, but it's helping me so much and my numbers go way down when I have stayed on it regularly. I use other flours like Almond Flour, Arrowroot Powder, Coconut flour and stuff like that. It's simple, but I may end up trying some Sourdough bread a little and see how that goes. I start itching so much down my throat and all over if I have anything so I guess it's not good for me and my mouth almost shut once too, luckily I had a Gluten Tablet that saved me. I have understood it's not going to help me at this point, oh well! Thanks for the question and if you have anymore questions please let me know? I am learning about it as much as possible since I love being natural as much as possible, I only take Armour Thyroid for my Hashimotos situation and it's about as natural with it I will get. Thanks and take care!
Thank you for the information. I have just ordered soft white wheat because you inspired me to try other things other than just bread with wheat. Now, I need to find a great recipe to try.
I didn't have a big problem with white bread I just didn't eat it. I just wasn't a bread until I found whole wheat berries I am in love with My wheat berries . THANK YOU
Oh wonderful! I do hope this helps with your health problems. I think you're making a wise change in your life, going with God's ways. And I hope my channel helps!
Definitely a difference with fake bread and real bread. My gut is unhappy. I have had weeks of not baking of my own bread because the Mill & Mix was in the basement and on a surface that is not sturdy enough for the mixer. I just got it moved up to the pantry to be able to use the large attached mixer, instead of my Kitchenaid mixer. My body has been craving real bread for the last three weeks. My gut will be on the mend/happy in the next few hours.
I dropped all processed foods and started grinding my own flour. The problem with all the factory made foods is the insulin spike you get from eating then crashing a few hours later (constantly eating). Food is too quickly absorbed and our bodies are not designed for that pace of digestion.
At the turn of the 20th century flour was typically adulterated (to add volume) with things like chalk, arsenic, even sawdust, which caused a lot of illnesses amongst the poorer classes. I suspect that nowadays it’s the abundant use of glyphosate which is responsible for most intestinal sensitivities related to wheat products. Your best bet is to find the most trustworthy organic growers of wheat you can and buy directly from them (however much you can afford to in bulk).
If you think you have 'grain brain', highly recommend giving up all sorts of potato chips. I gave up chips and bread for 2 weeks and my fogginess went away. BUT when I ate potato chips (my husband loves them) it came back but not when I eat freshly ground grains.
I just made my first loaf of bread today made with hard white wheat berries. That first slice was so pleasant, better than anything I've ever had from a restaurant. To add to the gluten argument I would add the argument that most all wheat now includes roundup as an additive to the soil around the wheat and I believe this has more to do with the gluten intolerance more so than the gluten and also why many foods in America are harmful instead of being nutritional
Girl,,,,,,,,you had me flipping out,,,lol. Amen, thank GOD for the LIVING bread! Fake bread,,,,we call it DEAD bread. What GOD has given is so awesome and I so much enjoy grinding those seeds of life into living tasty bread. HALLELUJAH!
hey there can you speak more to the point that you made at minute 12? My understanding is that the reason that whole grain berries are lower on the glycemic index is only b/c they are not yet ground into a flour. And that once we do grind them (or ANY type of food at all) it becomes much more quickly digestible thus does spike blood sugar quite quick still. This occurs with fruit and veggies smoothies as well. Pulverized foods are more quickly digested then whole form foods b/c of course the body has less breaking down to do.
The amount of bran (fiber) in the flour is what determines the glycemic index. Everything we eat we grind with our teeth, so everything would have a high glycemic index when we chewed it. Whole-grain wheat flour has a much lower glycemic index than that white powder they sell in stores.
@GrainsandGrit I really appreciate your response!! Thank you! From reading other places, it does seem like there is still a difference b/t pulverize food and chewing it but absolutely the amount of fiber in a food really does slow down its absorption thus spiking blood sugar less so thank you for that reminder. I am loving your videos and your strong faith in Christ Jesus! Hallelujah for finding your work on here!
Amen! I love how you tied the Bible and God's Word into your video! I just don't like the Title of your video, I knew it was click bait and I knew it was not what your title ment (maybe title it Why You Gave Up Modern or Store Bought Breads).
I did give up gluten, but bought farmers market sourdough. I have Hashimitos and though I was told no bread, nothing changed. I am trying to make my own milled bread but I keep ending up with brick doorstops. Not giving up, but quite a difference. I always made bread when my kids were home, using Bobs stoneground flour, I know I will get there, not sure my Hashimitos will budge, but….
@@GrainsandGrit , yes, but I think it may have had something to do with grinding the kamut flakes and not grain. Came out better with grain. I thought they would be one and the same. Guess not. Thanx for the channel.
This video came up in my to watch feed, I am going to try some Einkorn flour and see how i do with it. I'm getting tired of the dried-out coconut flour foods. 😁
Well hello 😊 I’m new to your channel I came across it for a reason.. well I ‘m new to grains and mills And I don’t know where to start I have bake bread with my grandma and my mom We used to grind our own corn for cornmeal .. but never flour .. I have a hand flour grinder But where to start with grains and Storing grain And can I use my recipes like for pancakes cookies and breads .. sorry but I just a beginner.. When it comes to fresh grains And yes I agree with you 💯 % The Lord did make us to eat wheat 🌾 Thank you for this video But I want to order grains Where do I start Thanks you sooo much Blessing 👩🌾
Oh goodness, I am waiting for my Mockmill, you scared me. Getting ready to transition to whole grain. Haha I have been making sour dough from King Arthur bread flour. Can't hardly wait for my mill. Yes Jesus is the bread of life.
Have you try testing your blood sugar when you eat bread? Just wonder if the sugar spike more or lesser compared to store bought ones especially the Ezekiel bread
I had a hard time to make bread initially. That was very disappointing . But after few times by trial and error , I started having more control on baking bread. I made my own servings of ingredients. It worked out great. As an example .. I always use 1/4 th of the yeast mentioned in recipe. I started adding home made malt powder. The bread taste far better than store bought bread . And my family love home made bread. That way I save money and , cut down all preservatives, GMO garbage consumption from the store bought bread. You don't have to give up white bread to cure diabetes. You might control the portion and fill up your plate with more natural raw food. P.S Store bought bread doesn't catch fungus rather dry out . why ? You know the answer.
I swapped white for wholemeal shop, was fine. But now I make own, hubby will only eat white, I seem OK with it🤞 but I prefer wholemeal taste. Edit.... I get worried when shp bought lasts for days even weeks, that's not right!
I think Sue Becker had a loaf of storebought bread she said lasted on the shelf for MONTHS. I think even over a year. Real bread would be moldy in a week!
I cleaned my pop up camper for vacation this year and found hot dog and hamburger buns that had been in there since summer before last. No mold and they were still soft. How?
@@GrainsandGrit apart from yt not notifying me of your comment 🤪! I've had a own baked get mould ON 3rd day. But, it got condensation in the bag.... Its to hot here... And someone left it on the counter in the sun🤦♀️ but on the grand side, proofing is in half time😂

The body heals after we remove the chemicals, additives and fake foods in the sold in our grocery stores. Loving your channel. 🌳
Yes! Thank you!
What is the best way to clear out chemicals?
@@fromwithin9690 The best way is to not eat them. Your body will automatically clean itself when the poison stops being consumed.

lol don't worry I'll never give up REAL bread!!! So glad you are here and you will be starting your milling journey soon!
The Bible mentions bread as being good for the heart "strengthens the heart". I think because of the high vit E content.
Yes! I was hoping for an in depth video on sourdough starters at some point.
@@GrainsandGrit Where do you buy your grains? Do you have a video on that?
😂 Oh my, you scared me! Especially since I just bought a electric grain mill grinder & a kitchenAid mixer to make my life easier. They’ve just arrived so I’m anxious to use them.

I see that you have jars in the background, I have obtained a number of 1 gallon wine bottles from the local VFW hall. After cleaning them and removing the label, they make excellent grain containers and they’re my second favorite F word they’re free.
Great!
Love this! It is completely counter cultural to consume bread. So few people know the benefits of real whole grains. Thanks for sharing!
I eat whole grains cooked in a pressure cooker for 8 minutes. My glucose levels have dropped and i don't feel hungry all the time. and i'm losing weight. I'm going to learn to make bread for my family soon.
I started milling my own wheat for bread about 3 months ago, and since then I have less digestive problems, and sometimes none. What I have discovered is every time I eat take out foods, or processed foods, I end up with tummy problems, and other adverse effects. I actually lost some weight when I started milling and baking my own bread. My hubby has even commented on how much he likes the bread now than before. I have a Nutrimill grain mill, and I am waiting for the Wondermill Jr. Deluxe to come in case we are out of power. One other thing I have experienced is a reduction in hunger issues. I want to have good food, and cook from scratch so to speak, but since I am eating real bread, I have no desire to eat things not beneficial.
So awesome, thanks for sharing!!!
Whew!!! I just started my milling journey and have watched many of your videos so the title of this one scared me! 😂🙌🏽
Alright, welcome aboard!
This was the best explanation I’ve seen in over 20 years! ❤
Yay! So glad it is helpful!
Wheat and barley are absolutely considered food in the Bible (as a half-German, it always annoys me that rye is not mentioned!).
But of course they were talking about einkorn, not super-hybridized modern wheat.
From childhood, I have always loved rye bread, and in recent years have been able to purchase bread made from ONLY rye flour, starter, and salt. Miraculously, it doesn’t have a hard crust. Haven’t quite figured out how they do that-they may use one of those oriental methods by adding boiling water to part of the flour. Maybe you can figure it out.
Whole rye bread-buttered-is the ideal platform for an open-faced liver sausage sandwich.
Swedish-style rye crispbread called WASA bread is available in a sourdough version.
My husband has pretty much given up bread to keep his body fat down. He’s been very successful, so if I’m having grain products like rye-einkorn pancakes (crepes) prepared in lard (no sweetener-I enjoy them plain and only fix them once or twice a year. They are very eggy. I also manage to consume the whole-grain version of Ezekiel English muffins, which contain few carbs.
My family has a great recipe for rinderwurst (beef sausage), a winter breakfast food that includes steel-cut oatmeal.
I’m glad to find your channel-I hope you experiment with rye bread.🥰
Hi there I love your videos can you please show a video of baking with soft white wheat berries baking fruit cakes in general ie fairy cakes and the like how to convert from store bought I'd love to see you baking like this thanks
Ps keep up the great videos cheers
That makes so much sense
I am very happy to know you have done your research on the right side of the information path,thanks for this very informative and enlightening video.😎😎😎
I gave up on store-bought bread when I got my Zojirushi Bread Maker. It works perfectly with fresh-milled flour from my grain mill, and taste TONS better!!
That is on my wish list for sure :-)
Thanks for making the topic into an encouraging, hope filled situation!
I have tried just about every diet - with grains; without grains and everything in between! I have blood type A Rh factor negative and finally started eating for my type. I eat grains and love my bread! Real bread! I am becoming healthier every day. Finally, I'm eating properly for MY body and stopped listening to others (who may need to eat differently for THEIR best health). May everyone find their own best health! God Bless❣️
Thank you for this valuable info and a reminder of the importance of true food God supplied for man
Preach it sister! Great video and God bless you!
Thank you!
I've been milling my own flour and baking my own bread for about a year now. When I first started, I was struck by how dense the bread was compared to what I had been buying at the store. I loved the flavor but it was so much more filling. I've gotten used to that now. At one point, I needed to bake another loaf but didn't have the time and I did need to do some shopping so I went ahead and picked up a loaf of the 100% wheat bread I had been buying off the shelf before I started baking my own, It was "terrible!!" It used to be my favorite but compared to the home made bread from fresh milled wheat, there was just no comparison.
So true, no comparison.
I agree with you ,I am a Christian 100%
Love your channel sister in Christ! Just purchased a vitamix dry grain container and also ordered hard white and red wheat berries.
Good for you, let's get baking!
GREAT SUBJECT!
I come from a family of German farmers who lost their 7 generation farm forever.... during WWII. Rye is what grew in the worst of soil and the coldest of climates.... even -30F.... it fed the masses in times of famine and war. Bread for the poor was made more from rye than wheat. It's also lower on the glycemic index and is recommended for diabetics. I make 100% sourdough rye breads, pizza crusts, rye sticks, flat breads, pesto monkey bread, etc. with soaked seeds like sunflower and pumpkin, sprouted buckwheat, caraway, and fresh herbs like rosemary, thyme, thai basil and oh, so much more!
I was gluten free for years and that along with green juicing and Qigong helped me to overcome some serious health issues including end-stage Lyme's disease and Bell's Palsy. I'm back to sourdough rye and have wheat berries that need to be ground up.... but I just can't bring myself to do it, lol.... once you go rye, there's no going back is what I've found out in the last two years (since Covid - my starter is called Little Annie or Annie Oakley, depending on my mood).
Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia runs in my family (4 out of 7 siblings have it) and one of my sisters went gluten free because of the "Wheat Belly Debate". I wonder if she gave up processed foods, animals and their products, and in general cleaned up her intake and environment, would she get better and still enjoy the "staff of life" that you are so describing?
BLESSINGS 2U for addressing the Wheat Belly Debate!!!!! It's a topic that leads to other topics for those looking to heal. I could add sooooo much more to this subject. Health and Wisdom should be passed on to each generation. Knowledge is Power and Be the Change come to mind. 💜💚💜💚💜
I love rye!
I’m so happy to read your story. I’ve been discovering rye and learning about it after reading about its low glycemic impact. Now, I’m keeping a rye sourdough starter and making 100% rye bread, tortillas, pancakes, etc. and yes, I’m milking my own berries! Thank God for Azure Standard.
Thank you for the informative information, and dispelling the lies from a Biblical perspective. You are a great teacher!
Wow, I just started watching your videos cause I want to milk my own flour, bought a bunch of grain lol but still waiting for my mill to come. I especially enjoy and proud of you not being timid of your faith. Thank you especially for that!
I hope to grind my own grains soon! 😊
Oh, I hope so. It can change your life.
What she called " Fake Bread", I call it "Foam Bread". Take a slice and squeeze it in you hands, see how big it became.
When I first read the title of this video.........I thought I would of bet you would give up Air before bread. I agree the fresh ground wheat is best.
Girl, you had my nerves tore up in the first minute of this video!!
lol Do not worry, my friend! I'm not going anywhere :-)
GIRL I love your channel. I love your information. Thank you every day for helping us!!!
Thank you so much!!
I was a bit shocked seeing the title, but relieved watching your video 😅. I totally agree on all levels!! And yes, God created nutritions for us and men corrupted it 😉…
So true!
Hahaha. I think you scared us all with that title 😂😂. Great video!
Hehe thanks
I started cooking my own bread products as well, because I too believe it's the over processed highly preserved bread products that is the problem and I've lost weight from switching and I actually eat more whole grain products.
That's awesome! See, this is what I'm walking about!!
We actually have Amylase enzymes right in our saliva to digest starch!
I am watching videos and debating about doing this I’m a young 71 and to start something new now I don’t know thinking
You're never too old to start getting younger!
A lot of people don't even think about soy and corn flour. Soy disrupts our hormones and can cause many more problems being digested without fermentation. Soy is one of the most genetically modified grains. Corn flour is just a high starch flour, humans can't digest corn unless it is nixtamilized to release all the vitamins and make it digestable. Corn is another highly genetically modified grain. And you are right about store bought bread. But there are beginning to be a lot of good small artisan bakeries that respect grain and who bake in a responsible manner. You just have to look for them, if you can't or don't want to bake your own bread.
Love it! Thanks again Felicia!
Great info, thank you
Great video, Felicia! I shared it on Facebook and hope my family & friends watch it.
Wonderful!! Way to share the message!
I lost over 60lbs “without trying” in that I ate NO CARBS. Period. End Of. I never went hungry. I also put in & planted a rather spectacular veggie garden, mostly using my Grandpa’s baby hoe and trowel. Severe arthritis & fibro has since taken up residence ~ debating to try again and grit my way thru ~ Blessings to you and your work!!!
You are so right!! God bless you😊
Good video!
Let me add a few thoughts, in general and as a type 2 diabetic:
1. I could be wrong but, from what I have read, the issue with normal flour and "glutin intolerance" has more to do with glysophate being sprayed on wheat. I'm not saying that's all it is, but my understanding is that it *is* a factor. Glysophate.
2. As a diabetic, part of what I am concerned about is *net carbs*. Net carbs is what you have when you subtract fibrous carbs from the total carb count. And, the more fiber you remove from flour, the higher the net carb count. And, as you referred to the glycemic index, this will make it (bread, flour) higher on the glycemic index.
I have just begun food storage. Rice, beans, grits, steel cut oats and now I have ordered hard red and soft white wheat berries. I look forward to eating cleaner with the wheat berries.
I don't place lots of credence on the medical community. Always double check everything they say you need. I recently saw my family doctor and he agreed, for example, that Zinc and Magnesium is effective for an enlarged prostate. The (not so) funny thing is, the never tell you to just take those things, rather they push big pharma meds like Finasteride which with many people (such as mine) don't even help.
I was once told that I had Hashimoto's thyroiditis and that my thyroid would die in five years. Wrong. It's still here.
I have learned to do as much of my own research from *solid* sources as I can, to be able to give myself the best care by avoiding bad advice, even from the "experts".
***Question: I'm looking for a good grain mill that won't cost an arm and a leg. One that will work well and can be used with a motor or manually should we have blackouts. Wondering if you have a recommendation.
Thank you.
Tim
So...do you actually have Hashi's? Unfortunately, I do and have learned about molecular mimicry and why we shouldn't eat gluten. Curious about how you're treating your condition.
I have Hashimotos and I have found the best diet that works well in my situation is the Paleo diet and I know it has no Gluten or dairy, but it's helping me so much and my numbers go way down when I have stayed on it regularly. I use other flours like Almond Flour, Arrowroot Powder, Coconut flour and stuff like that. It's simple, but I may end up trying some Sourdough bread a little and see how that goes. I start itching so much down my throat and all over if I have anything so I guess it's not good for me and my mouth almost shut once too, luckily I had a Gluten Tablet that saved me. I have understood it's not going to help me at this point, oh well! Thanks for the question and if you have anymore questions please let me know? I am learning about it as much as possible since I love being natural as much as possible, I only take Armour Thyroid for my Hashimotos situation and it's about as natural with it I will get. Thanks and take care!
Interesting thoughts. Yes, glyphosate is a huge problem. For choosing a mill, this video should help you: ruclips.net/video/oM6k-htoP88/видео.html&
You can grind grains in a little coffee grinder, small batches at a time.
Ha ha ha! You had me with that thumbnail! Fabulous video! Congratulations on the new home, btw.
lol thank you!!!
Thank you for the information. I have just ordered soft white wheat because you inspired me to try other things other than just bread with wheat. Now, I need to find a great recipe to try.
I have several recipes using soft white wheat! :-)
Making your muffins for breakfast and cookies for Sabbath
Yay!!! I think muffins are my family's favorite.
Well said, bravo !
Amen sister!!!
You made it look so easy, fully watched! I love your channel, I’m subscribed 😀
Glad to have you here!
I get crickets when I ask experts for information about eating bread made from home milled ancient wheat. Nobody responds.
Same!
I didn't have a big problem with white bread I just didn't eat it. I just wasn't a bread until I found whole wheat berries I am in love with My wheat berries . THANK YOU
Oh wonderful! I do hope this helps with your health problems. I think you're making a wise change in your life, going with God's ways. And I hope my channel helps!
Amen sister, preach!
Definitely a difference with fake bread and real bread. My gut is unhappy. I have had weeks of not baking of my own bread because the Mill & Mix was in the basement and on a surface that is not sturdy enough for the mixer.
I just got it moved up to the pantry to be able to use the large attached mixer, instead of my Kitchenaid mixer.
My body has been craving real bread for the last three weeks. My gut will be on the mend/happy in the next few hours.
I dropped all processed foods and started grinding my own flour. The problem with all the factory made foods is the insulin spike you get from eating then crashing a few hours later (constantly eating). Food is too quickly absorbed and our bodies are not designed for that pace of digestion.
Exactly
At the turn of the 20th century flour was typically adulterated (to add volume) with things like chalk, arsenic, even sawdust, which caused a lot of illnesses amongst the poorer classes. I suspect that nowadays it’s the abundant use of glyphosate which is responsible for most intestinal sensitivities related to wheat products. Your best bet is to find the most trustworthy organic growers of wheat you can and buy directly from them (however much you can afford to in bulk).
Right, or buy from a trustworthy distributor of non-glyphosate grains.
Barley is the way to go imo. Also spelt and kamut are good alternatives to modern wheat cultivars. A smaller quantity of high quality is the way.
Yes indeed, those are such delicious grains. I love them both.
Excellent!
lol girl you had me going for a sec
Hahahaha
Amen to everything you said
Amen!
If you think you have 'grain brain', highly recommend giving up all sorts of potato chips. I gave up chips and bread for 2 weeks and my fogginess went away. BUT when I ate potato chips (my husband loves them) it came back but not when I eat freshly ground grains.
Yeah, that starch will get you.
Thank you for the info.
I just made my first loaf of bread today made with hard white wheat berries. That first slice was so pleasant, better than anything I've ever had from a restaurant. To add to the gluten argument I would add the argument that most all wheat now includes roundup as an additive to the soil around the wheat and I believe this has more to do with the gluten intolerance more so than the gluten and also why many foods in America are harmful instead of being nutritional
Sure, there's contamination everywhere. We can't escape it.
i love you, you tell them
Girl! You scared me for a minute! 😁
😅
Not just bread so many food you get at the store is junk i raised
Girl,,,,,,,,you had me flipping out,,,lol. Amen, thank GOD for the LIVING bread! Fake bread,,,,we call it DEAD bread. What GOD has given is so awesome and I so much enjoy grinding those seeds of life into living tasty bread. HALLELUJAH!
Haha, amen!
Great video, even though you scared me at first! I was like I haven't got my mill and now you're stopping! Haha 😄 have a blessed day!
lol nope not stopping at all!!!
hey there can you speak more to the point that you made at minute 12? My understanding is that the reason that whole grain berries are lower on the glycemic index is only b/c they are not yet ground into a flour. And that once we do grind them (or ANY type of food at all) it becomes much more quickly digestible thus does spike blood sugar quite quick still. This occurs with fruit and veggies smoothies as well. Pulverized foods are more quickly digested then whole form foods b/c of course the body has less breaking down to do.
The amount of bran (fiber) in the flour is what determines the glycemic index. Everything we eat we grind with our teeth, so everything would have a high glycemic index when we chewed it. Whole-grain wheat flour has a much lower glycemic index than that white powder they sell in stores.
@GrainsandGrit I really appreciate your response!! Thank you! From reading other places, it does seem like there is still a difference b/t pulverize food and chewing it but absolutely the amount of fiber in a food really does slow down its absorption thus spiking blood sugar less so thank you for that reminder.
I am loving your videos and your strong faith in Christ Jesus! Hallelujah for finding your work on here!
Was wondering what your thoughts on Einkorn are? I buy the the Einkorn wheat from Jovial
Got you covered: ruclips.net/video/V7Qo9xet5_E/видео.html
Silly woman, lol, you had me worried for a second.
Today I will make a freshly milled grain bread.
God bless you and yours
Amen! I love how you tied the Bible and God's Word into your video!
I just don't like the Title of your video, I knew it was click bait and I knew it was not what your title ment (maybe title it Why You Gave Up Modern or Store Bought Breads).
I did give up gluten, but bought farmers market sourdough. I have Hashimitos and though I was told no bread, nothing changed. I am trying to make my own milled bread but I keep ending up with brick doorstops. Not giving up, but quite a difference. I always made bread when my kids were home, using Bobs stoneground flour, I know I will get there, not sure my Hashimitos will budge, but….
Sorry your bread is turning out dense. Have you tried my recipe?
@@GrainsandGrit , yes, but I think it may have had something to do with grinding the kamut flakes and not grain. Came out better with grain. I thought they would be one and the same. Guess not. Thanx for the channel.
This video came up in my to watch feed, I am going to try some Einkorn flour and see how i do with it. I'm getting tired of the dried-out coconut flour foods. 😁
You can do it!
Well hello 😊
I’m new to your channel
I came across it for a reason..
well I ‘m new to grains and mills
And I don’t know where to start
I have bake bread with my grandma and my mom
We used to grind our own corn for cornmeal ..
but never flour ..
I have a hand flour grinder
But where to start with grains and Storing grain
And can I use my recipes like for pancakes cookies and breads ..
sorry but I just a beginner..
When it comes to fresh grains
And yes I agree with you 💯 %
The Lord did make us to eat wheat 🌾
Thank you for this video
But I want to order grains
Where do I start
Thanks you sooo much
Blessing
👩🌾
Welcome! I recommend you download my free Newbie Guide for all the info on getting started: bit.ly/3XgUWrD
Oh goodness, I am waiting for my Mockmill, you scared me. Getting ready to transition to whole grain. Haha I have been making sour dough from King Arthur bread flour. Can't hardly wait for my mill. Yes Jesus is the bread of life.
Have you try testing your blood sugar when you eat bread? Just wonder if the sugar spike more or lesser compared to store bought ones especially the Ezekiel bread
The glycemic index for store-bought breads and home-milled breads are night and day.
I had a hard time to make bread initially. That was very disappointing . But after few times by trial and error , I started having more control on baking bread. I made my own servings of ingredients. It worked out great. As an example .. I always use 1/4 th of the yeast mentioned in recipe. I started adding home made malt powder. The bread taste far better than store bought bread . And my family love home made bread. That way I save money and , cut down all preservatives, GMO garbage consumption from the store bought bread. You don't have to give up white bread to cure diabetes. You might control the portion and fill up your plate with more natural raw food.
P.S Store bought bread doesn't catch fungus rather dry out . why ? You know the answer.
I swapped white for wholemeal shop, was fine. But now I make own, hubby will only eat white, I seem OK with it🤞 but I prefer wholemeal taste. Edit.... I get worried when shp bought lasts for days even weeks, that's not right!
I think Sue Becker had a loaf of storebought bread she said lasted on the shelf for MONTHS. I think even over a year. Real bread would be moldy in a week!
I cleaned my pop up camper for vacation this year and found hot dog and hamburger buns that had been in there since summer before last. No mold and they were still soft. How?
@@hollyseamon1489 🤣🤷♀️ this made me laugh.... Maybe made with cricket flour😉
@@GrainsandGrit apart from yt not notifying me of your comment 🤪! I've had a own baked get mould ON 3rd day. But, it got condensation in the bag.... Its to hot here... And someone left it on the counter in the sun🤦♀️ but on the grand side, proofing is in half time😂
I wonder if we are cursing the Manna God has provided. The deception !!
EXACTLY. That's exactly what we are doing, because society has tricked us with fake bread. But the real manna has been there all along.
I don’t know how to get the one loaf recipe
