This isn't necessarily supporting Paleo/bulletproof diet, but it is worth noting that every study showing the "health benefits" of whole wheat only compare whole wheat to refined wheat, not compared to no wheat. The results of these studies, that it reduces diabetes and various cancers, is consistent with the Paleo view as well.

So, if nothing else it would be best to cut down on non-whole wheat grains.
