I read number of medical research papers that says wheat can develop intolerance syndrome which can result in gaining weight rather than losing weight ?
Appreciate comments from the experts here
Thank you

Rashed,
Wheat products are higher in calories than other starches. Also the wheat has been processed more than say pearled barley or baked potatoes. I think these reasons are why wheat products are not included in the Maximum Weight loss version of the diet. Bread usually has a lot of salt in it too. But if weight is not a key issue, then whole wheat products are OK on the general McDougall plan.
Sorry for taking so long to respond.
