SynopsisIn this #1 New York Times bestseller, a renowned cardiologist explains how eliminating wheat from our diets can prevent fat storage, shrink unsightly bulges, and reverse myriad health problems. Every day, over 200 million Americans consume food products made of wheat. As a result, over 100 million of them experience some form of adverse health effect, ranging from minor rashes and high blood sugar to the unattractive stomach bulges that preventive cardiologist William Davis calls "wheat bellies." According to Davis, that excess fat has nothing to do with gluttony, sloth, or too much butter: It's due to the whole grain wraps we eat for lunch. After witnessing over 2,000 patients regain their health after giving up wheat, Davis reached the disturbing conclusion that wheat is the single largest contributor to the nationwide obesity epidemic--and its elimination is key to dramatic weight loss and optimal health. In Wheat Belly , Davis exposes the harmful effects of what is actually a product of genetic tinkering and agribusiness being sold to the American public as "wheat"--and provides readers with a user-friendly, step-by-step plan to navigate a new, wheat-free lifestyle. Informed by cutting-edge science and nutrition, along with case studies from men and women who have experienced life-changing transformations in their health after waving goodbye to wheat, Wheat Belly is an illuminating look at what is truly making Americans sick and an action plan to clear our plates of this seemingly benign ingredient., Davis exposes the harmful effects of what is actually a product of genetic tinkering and agribusiness being sold to the American public as "wheat"--and provides readers with a user-friendly, step-by-step plan to navigate a new, wheat-free lifestyle., A renowned cardiologist explains how eliminating wheat from our diets can prevent fat storage, shrink unsightly bulges, and reverse myriad health problems.

Everyone should read this book!
This is one of MANY Wheat Belly books I’ve bought to give away after I first bought one for myself. It’s So Much More than the title tells. This is NOT a diet book, although you can lose a great amount of weight if you follow the advice to take all wheat products out of your life and not make meals on sugar and potatoes. When I first read this book, I was astonished at what this current hybrid form of wheat is doing to the human body. The research is extensive and made me wonder how this hybrid wheat can be sold for human consumption. The wheat doesn’t only cause weight gain but many other aches and ailments throughout the body. Aside from losing over 50 pounds, I noticed that the rough skin on my elbows disappeared and it became smooth again. I noticed the same thing with the heels of my feet. There’s no telling what internal benefits I received by removing wheat products from my regular diet. Do you have, or know someone that has intestinal problems? Do your older parents or your grandparents have arthritis? I strongly suggest you get this book. There are many other issues caused by ingesting this hybrid wheat on a regular basis. Even if you don’t have any complaints yourself, chances are you know someone who would greatly benefit from the findings given in this book. It’s an easy read, although it sometimes gets very technical and detailed. The author does have a good sense of humor and I actually laughed a few times, which is rare for me, but it was good because it broke the seriousness of what the book deals with. The main reason for reading this book is to know WHY you should give up eating wheat. Someone can tell you to give it up but without knowing why, chances are you won’t give up the biscuits, rye bread, whole wheat bread, pancakes, cookies, bagels, dumplings, crackers, melba toast, croutons, spaghetti, macaroni and cheese, hamburger buns, ciabatta bread, ramen, and so on, and so on, and SO ON. That’s the thing- people don’t really think about how much wheat they eat because it’s the main ingredient in so many of their favorite foods. It might be a little tough to eliminate it from your regular rotation of meals but you CAN get used to it. Believe me, it’s well worth getting this book and well worth getting rid of the wheat products in your life.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Neu

To me, this book is worth its weight in gold
I first found out about this book while searching blogs on weight loss - and I'm so glad someone mentioned it. In two weeks I've lost about 5 pounds, but what is really amazing is this - For two years I've had pain and swelling in my knees (at times extreme shooting pain), and haven't been able to walk more a few minutes most days, nor swim or ride a bike. Along with this have been sleepless nights due to pain, and low energy and depression from not being able to exercise. I eliminated wheat from my diet and within 2 or 3 days I was walking just fine - with no pain - and even danced for hours one night! I will understand if you find this hard to believe - because I find it hard to believe myself - but it's true! In the last 2 years I've had 3 cortisone shots in one knee, and 2 in the other knee. An MRI showed torn meniscus in two areas of one knee (our HMO would only MRI one knee). I don't remember ever damaging the knee or doing anything out of the ordinary - it just started swelling and hurting. So IMO, I think this book is worth it's weight in gold. I bought a second book and sent it to my brother who has had problems with excema. He hasn't started the wheat-free diet yet, but I'm hopeful. Also, the book is so well-written and documented, and is very interesting reading - hard for me to put down at night. So yes - I highly recommend this book.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Neu

Staying healthy
This is a definite "MUST READ" for all of us especially us seniors that were born before the 50's when wheat was healthy and not genetically altered to produce more of it. In this day and age wheat is a addition to any meal and although we have partaken of our daily bread for many years it is now time to say goodbye to a bad food. Please read this book!! It will change your life!!!Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Neu

Life changing book
This book was life changing for me 2 years ago! I feel so much better. I went from 4-6 migraines a week to 1-2 a month. I lost 30 lbs in 18 months! 10 lbs every 6 months - like clock work. And I have maintained my weight since then. I bought another one to give to a friend who is struggling with her health.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Neu

Highly Informative Book
It really explains how today's wheat affects you. For instance, did you know that today's wheat affects a part of the brain that only opiates affect, and causes addiction? And notice I said, "today's wheat." Yesss!!! Our wheat is NOT our grandparents' wheat! I highly recommend this book! You will understand WHY your body is doing odd things - like your belly swelling!Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht

Worth reading if you have CSTD(chronic spare tire disease)
Just for kicks,after reading this, I gave up wheat based products for 2 weeks. Lost 4 lbs the first week, 2 lbs the second week. Passed on my daily beer and a shot, as well as bread......Will concentrate on good sources of proteins, vegetables, and fruits. No fatigue factor like in Atkins! If this keeps up it will be the best health improvement of my 66 years of living. Thank you Dr Davis!Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht
