First human study on Kamut® wheat shows heart benefits
This is some of the latest research on KAMUT ® Khorasan wheat. I am very interested why "why most people who cannot eat modern wheat have no problem eating this ancient wheat."
This is one of the questions I talk about in "Grow A Healthier Pizza," The book I am working on.

First human study on Kamut wheat shows heart benefits
Jan. 18, 2013Kamut International | Engredea News & Analysis
Multiyear research program seeks to understand why most people who cannot eat modern wheat can tolerate this ancient variety.
Kamut® International is pleased to announce the publication of the first study in Phase III of its multi-year research program to understand the unique properties of ancient wheat sold under the Kamut® trademark and why most people who cannot eat modern wheat have no problem eating this ancient wheat.
This study focuses on the effect of the ancient Kamut brand wheat on healthy human beings. Published in the European Journal of Clinical Nutrition, January 2013, this study focused on the two most important factors for heart health, antioxidant capacity and inflammation. The randomized, single-blind, crossover study took place in Italy with a research group of 22 healthy adults—eight men and 14 women—over two test periods, each eight weeks in length.
“This is a big breakthrough in learning more about ancient, organic grains and the health benefits they offer,” commented Bob Quinn, Kamut International founder. “Over the past four years we completed the first two phases of our four phase research project. In phase two of our project, we studied the effects of eating ancient and modern grain on rats. Now we have begun our third phase based on studies of healthy human subjects. We were excited to see the same results as we had seen in the rat studies. A diet of KAMUT brand wheat product compared to traditional durum wheat resulted in a higher antioxidant capacity and decreased inflammation activity.”
