BLEACHED FLOUR  The nutritious part of wheat is removed (germ & the bran). White wheat flour, enriched flour, cake flour, white bread flour, cracker meal made with wheat becomes a form of sugar. Heat from the steel rollers destroy remaining nutrients. It is hit with another chemical insult--a chlorine gas bath (chlorine oxide). This serves as a whitener, forming alloxan which spins up enormous amounts of free radicals in pancreatic beta cells, thus destroying the islet cells of Langerhans that produce insulin, creating diabetes.
