A man has generated widespread debate online after warning that frequent bread consumption could allegedly pose health risks to both men and women.
According to him, modern wheat no longer contains the same natural nutritional value it once had before genetic modifications and industrial processing became widespread decades ago.
He claimed that changes in wheat production and processing since the 1960s stripped the grain of beneficial nutrients while introducing components he believes may contribute to long-term health issues.
The comments quickly sparked mixed reactions across social media and online wellness discussions. Some users agreed that excessive consumption of heavily processed foods may contribute to conditions such as obesity and diabetes, while others argued that bread remains one of the most affordable and accessible food options for many Nigerians.
“I went back to the history of what happened to wheat from the 1960s when wheat was genetically modified. They removed everything that made wheat healthy and included things that made it dangerous for human consumption,” the man said.
“This is the time to stop eating bread if you want to live long,” the man added while encouraging people to embrace healthier local alternatives.
