Wheat Belly: A Summary of Dr. William Davis' Book Lose the Wheat, Lose the Weight and Find Your Path Back to Health

Wheat Belly

Wheat Belly - While wheat is touted as part of a "heart healthy diet" and we are encouraged to eat more whole grains, the wheat we buy in the supermarket is worlds away, genetically speaking, from the wheat our grandparents ate. Not coincidentally, their generation was far leaner and healthier than ours. Clearly, something radical has changed in our national diet, and the genetic modification of wheat, according to Dr. William Davis MD, is that change.

In Wheat Belly by Dr. William Davis: Lose the Wheat, Lose the Weight and Find Your Path Back to Health, Dr. Davis makes his case against wheat. Using a combination of his own clinical observations, established medical studies and documented research, Dr. Davis paints a vivid picture of precisely how wheat affects the body. Among other things, it contributes to weight gain, diabetes, heart disease and chronic lethargy.
