Carbs: minimalist view
Carbs are the primary source of energy. Our bodies convert carbs to energy faster than any other food group.
Abuse of carbs leads to inflammation and diabetes.

The problem
Starvation in poor countries was Borlaug’s starting point
Imports of grains were the most important conversations of UN and Kings and Queens
People had absolute focus on achieving food independence.

What Borlaug Did
He obtained a PhD in plant protection at the age of 27, and worked in Mexico in the 1940s and 1950s to make the country self-sufficient in grain. Borlaug recommended improved methods of cultivation, and developed a robust strain of wheat - dwarf wheat - that was adapted to Mexican conditions. By 1956 the country had become self-sufficient in wheat.
Got hired as a consultant in India and Pakistan, and got results that no one could ever dream of….

Our known/possible responses
Don’t eat wheat (bread) at all
Don’t eat modern dwarf varieties of wheat (bread)
Ignore and continue eating what is put in front of you!

We avoid foods back filled with enriched wheat flour(s).
Limit carbs at night, to address insulin issues.
