Heck, all last year was a Starch Experiment and I decided I must be a Mutant. All it did was help put on ten pounds I didn't want back!

Then, I read Death by Food Pyramid, and it was all explained. Some people have saliva enzymes that work the starch into useful blocks, and Chris must be one of these. But some people have very few of these enzymes, and all the starch does is turn into blood sugar; and that would be ME. So yes, I am a mutant... and so is he

Great book! Highly recommended!
