Thanks for sharing but I have to say that:
You have a wrong information. Brain DOESN'T need carbohydrates in order to do the thinking thing. When body runs out of glucose, liver produces keton bodies by burning fat, and these keton bodies are far more efficient energy source for brain.

uhm, no. first of all, it's 'ketone' not 'keton'.
while it's true ketones can become the predominant fuel source, glucose is required by the brain at all times - lookup Cahill's research from the late 60s (start with that). when no dietary carbohydrate is provided, glucose is made endogenously - to supply the brain and other dependent organs and tissues in the brain.

Sorry, it's keton in my primary language. Again, what was my point? Brain doesn't need carbohydrate intake! He is talking about the importance of whole grains there, that is absolute bs, and misinforming.
