I don’t get why the fiber has to come from grains. Why not from vegetables? With vegetables you’re getting the fiber but you’re staying low carb. I wonder if the researchers even considered this angle. Probably not, since they’re WHO guys and it wouldn’t fit their agenda.

A big, fat grant from Archer Daniels Midland reminded them exactly how to phrase it.

Grains are often full of lectins that cause bad reactions in the gut. The stupid "food pyramid" was invented to spur sales of grains for the farming industry, not for the purpose of promoting a healthy diet. Wheat fattens people just as it fattens livestock.
