Lynton:
I too am interested in the Paleo info.

I would think that you are right about theHunza's  wheat being  low-glutin:
I tend to think that high-gluten is a modern development for the aethetics
of "better" bread making.

The same thing is happening to milk, where "type A" milk is produced because
those cows give greater quantities of milk.  This type of milk is worse for
the human - I forget exactly how.  Perhaps someone can provide the info?

So we are "looking 'forward'" to genetically engineered foods, in the wisdom
for example that a plant the can survive higher levels of pesticide is
"better".  So even if we survive the genetic changes, we still have to cope
with increased pesticide.  Enough already!!

but, keep ;>),  the execercise does you good !
