The more I listen to Doug Kaufman on tv, the more I believe fungal toxins in our foods are a serious health threat, and that many chronic health conditions, including cancer, are caused by fungus (yeast).
He had a good show on today, with Dr. Simoncini, showing videos of a camera inside of different people that Dr's would say was cancer- when it was actually white and yeast/fungal overgrowth.

Sugar feeds the fungus, but the reason for the grains/corn not being in the "Phase 1 diet" of Doug Kaufman's, is because of the mold/fungus in them. It can be found on his website, under FAQ's.
The very USDA that told us in the Food Pyramid to eat 6-11 servings of grains per day..also put out this report about the mycotoxins in grains:

Aflatoxins are just one of them, here's another one:
Ochratoxin
Ochratoxin A, B, and C are mycotoxins produced by some Aspergillus species and Penicillium species, like A. ochraceus or P. viridicatum, with ochratoxin A as the most prevalent and relevant fungal toxin of this group.
Ochratoxin A is known to occur in commodities like cereals, coffee, dried fruit and red wine. It is considered a human carcinogen and is of special interest as it can be accumulated in the meat of animals. Thus meat and meat products can be contaminated with this toxin. Exposure to ochratoxins through diet can have can acute toxicity to mammalian kidneys, and may be carcinogenic.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ochratoxin_A
Ochratoxin A, a toxin produced by Aspergillus ochraceus and Penicillium verrucosum, is one of the most abundant food-contaminating mycotoxins in the world.[1] Human exposure occurs mainly through consumption of improperly stored food products,[2] particularly contaminated grain and pork products, as well as coffee[3], wine grapes [4] and dried grapes. The toxin has been found in the tissues and organs of animals, including human blood and breast milk.[5]
Immune System:
Ochratoxin A can cause immunosuppression and immunotoxicity in animals.[1] The toxin's immunosuppressant activity in animals may include depressed antibody responses, reduced size of immune organs (such as the thymus, spleen, and lymph nodes), changes in immune cell number and function, and altered cytokine production.[1] Immunotoxicity probably results from cell death following apoptosis and necrosis, in combination with slow replacement of affected immune cells due to inhibition of protein synthesis.[1]

OTA contamination is commonly associated with cereals, fresh grapes, dried vine fruit, wine, beer, coffee, and cocoa.
