  2. Bulgar is actually a cereal food made from the groats of several different wheat species, most often (97%) from durum wheat.
    As anyone that has done any research on modern durum wheat knows that wheat is no longer the wheat of 100 years ago and in fact is toxic to the human body. ALL seeds from the grasses are high in lectins and can be just as damaging as wheat.
