 Description: 

A specialist of the heart, Dr. William Davis, MD, notes that cutting wheat from our diets will prevent fat storage, shrink unsightly bulges, and reverse a variety of health issues.

There are over 200 million Americans who are eating food items made of wheat daily. As a result of the fat that builds up in the stomach, one hundred million of these highly annoying individuals experience between mild rashes and blood sugar issues to the unattractive stomach bulges an average fat-preventive cardiologist William Davis calls "wheat bellies." By using the wrong foods from our school lunches, this same cardiologist predicts that a third of all U.S. adults will unexpectedly end up with a "potato sack" belly in the next ten years—and you know it's unavoidable that more of us will be hauling a load of bread around on our bellies—and that number could even reach 60 percent by mid-century.

Since recognising that wheat was a big contributor to the national obesity issue and triggering a possible health crisis, the health-minded Davis has come to the realisation that reducing wheat is one of the most critical measures we can do to decrease the obesity rate. In Wheat Belly he shows the hazards of what is essentially a result of genetic tinkering (i.e., revising animal DNA in order to produce cattle, plants, and food) and agribusiness being sold to the American public as "wheat" (i.e., make it appear as a high-protein, low-carbohydrate food) and provide readers with a user-friendly, step-by-step strategy to manage a wheat-free lifestyle.

Driven by cutting-edge research and nutrition, along with case reports from men and women who have undergone life-changing transformations of their wellbeing since waving goodbye to wheat, WheatBelly is an illuminating look at what is really making Americans sick and an action plan to rid our plates of this apparently innocuous product.
