Ancient Grain Pasta Changed My Life: A Gluten Sensitivity Success Story

THE ROMAN LEGIONNAIRE'S ANCIENT GRAIN Before the Green Revolution in the 1950s, Ancient Grains were the staple for bread, pastas, and dough. Back then, gluten sensitivity was practically unheard of.  In 2013, after seeing some of my own family members struggle with gluten intolerance, I decided to resurrect the Ancient Grains consumed by the Roman Legionnaires themselves. Sicily’s elite grain provided vital energy for each Roman legionnaire trained to march 20 miles in 5 hours while carrying 60-100 lbs of gear! To accomplish this, each Roman legionnaire was provided a daily ration of 900 grams of grain (75% of their entire ration) almost this whole bag! **GIFT READY ** Add a Personalized Message in the note section when viewing your cart and your gift will be delivered with a special gift box at no additional cost.
