Lose the Wheat, Lose the Weight, and Find Your Path Back to Health

Includes a bonus with recipes and more! A provocative look at how eliminating wheat from our diets can help us lose weight, shrink unsightly bulges, and reverse a broad spectrum of health problemsfrom acne to diabetes and serious digestive disorders Since the introduction of dietary guidelines calling for reduced fat intake in the 1970s, a strange phenomenon has occurred: Americans have steadily become heavier, less healthy, and more prone to diabetes than ever before. After putting over two thousand of his atrisk patients on a wheatfree regimen and seeing extraordinary results, cardiologist William Davis has come to the disturbing conclusion that it is not fat, sugar, or our sedentary lifestyle that is causing Americas obesity epidemicit is wheat. How this oncebenign grainnow genetically modified almost beyond recognition and found in almost every mealhas come to have such a profound and harmful effect on our collective wellbeing is one of the great untold health stories of our generation. Here, Dr. Davis exposes the truth about modernday wheat, deconstructing its historical role in the human diet and the agricultural evolutions that have created a hybrid grain that has a greater impact on blood sugar levels than pure cane sugar and many of the addictive characteristics of a narcotic. He sheds light on wheats connection to weight gain as well as to a host of other adverse effects from diabetes to heart disease to immunologic and neurologic disorders like celiac disease, rheumatoid arthritis, and dementia. Finally, to help listeners dependent on wheat products make the move to a wheatfree diet, he presents a clearcut action plan packed with food and lifestyle tips, meal plans, and recipes. Informed by decades of clinical research and backed by case studies of men and women who have experienced lifechanging transformations in their health after waving goodbye to wheat, this is an illuminating look at a familiar food and an affirmative life plan for regaining health and losing unwanted pounds.
