- No.
- Yes, eating grains can make some people fat. If you have the predisposition (sometimes referred to as the 'thrifty' gene), eating grains (and sugars) can result in insulin resistance (syndrome X), weight gain, obesity, and other diet related diseases. As delicious as grains are, for some of us our bodies are not designed to eat grains because our hunter-gatherer ancestors did not evolve eating grains. Our bodies are still extremely similar to the bodies of our ancestors. Our ancestors had agrain free diet from around two-and-one-half million years ago until the Agricultural Revolution around ten thousand years ago. Less than 1/10th of 1% of our genes have changed in the last 10,000 years. In terms of the evolution of our genes, it's not that long ago.
