Publisher's summary
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 problems—from acne to diabetes to 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, inexorably become heavier, less healthy, and more prone to diabetes than ever before. After putting more than 2,000 of his at-risk patients on a wheat-free regimen and seeing extraordinary results, cardiologist William Davis has come to the disturbing conclusion that it is not fat, not sugar, not our sedentary lifestyle that is causing America’s obesity epidemic—it is wheat. How this once-benign grain—now genetically modified almost beyond recognition and found in virtually every course of every meal—has come to have such a profound and deleterious effect on our collective well-being is one of the great untold health stories of our generation.
In Wheat Belly, Dr. Davis exposes the truth about modern-day 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 wheat’s 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 wheat-free diet, he presents a clear-cut 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 life-changing transformations in their health after waving good-bye to wheat, Wheat Belly is an illuminating look at a familiar food as well as an affirmative life plan for regaining health and losing unwanted pounds.

Because of our highly processed diet, pesticides, and overuse of antibiotics, our guts are now missing so many of the good bacteria that we require to be healthy. As a result, many of us have lost control over our health, weight, mood, and even behavior. With cutting-edge research, Dr. Davis connects the dots between gut health and modern ailments such as SIBO (small intestinal bacterial overgrowth), a silent and profound epidemic, which affects one out of three people and is responsible for an astounding range of human health conditions.

Worry about cholesterol. Avoid red meat. Eat whole grains. Could it all be a lie? We live in an era of health hype and nutrition propaganda, and we are suffering for it. Decades of avoiding egg yolks, choosing margarine over butter, and replacing the real foods of our ancestors with low-fat, processed, packaged substitutes have left us with an obesity epidemic, ever-rising rates of chronic disease, and, above all, total confusion about what to eat and why.

Yet despite this advice, we have seen unprecedented epidemics of obesity and diabetes. Taubes argues that the problem lies in refined carbohydrates, like white flour, easily digested starches, and sugars, and that the key to good health is the kind of calories we take in, not the number.

For many, chronic pain is part of an autoimmune disease, but all too often doctors turn to the same solution: painkilling drugs. But all of this medication simply isn't helping. As Dr. Peter Osborne, the leading authority on gluten sensitivity and food allergies, has found, the real solution often lies in what you eat.

Are you taking calcium or vitamin D? This book could save your life! Learn the secret to avoiding osteoporosis and heart disease. Millions of people take calcium and Vitamin D supplements thinking they're helping their bones. The truth is, without the addition of Vitamin K2, such a health regimen could prove dangerous. Without Vitamin K2, the body cannot direct calcium to the bones where it's needed; instead, the calcium resides in soft tissue, like the arteries, leading to a combination of osteoporosis and atherosclerosis, or the dreaded "calcium paradox".

A healthy dosage helps women slim down, improves mood, lowers the risk of cardiac disease, increases energy and libido, prevents osteoporosis, enhances skin tone and texture, and may even prevent cognitive decline - yet more than 90% of women over age 45 suffer from low testosterone levels. In The Hormone Secret, Meraglia offers an evidence-based 30-day plan to restore healthy levels of testosterone and balance other hormones based on lifestyle modifications.

Leading health blogger Jimmy Moore and researcher and internist Dr. Eric C. Westman join forces again to explain the powerful therapeutic effects of a ketogenic diet—one that combines a customized carbohydrate restriction, moderation of protein intake, and real food-based fats—which is emerging in the scientific literature as a means for improving a wide range of diseases, from Type 2 diabetes to Alzheimer's and more. Simply eating a low-carb diet alone isn't enough, and Moore and Westman tell you why. Have you looked at a low-carb diet simply as a means to lose weight? What if you learned that combining a low-carb nutritional approach with a high fat intake produces a powerful therapeutic effect on a wide variety of health conditions that most people think requires medication to control? That’s what Keto Clarity is all about. Jimmy Moore, a leading low-carb diet blogger and podcaster, has reunited with his Cholesterol Clarity co-author Dr. Eric C. Westman, a practicing internist and low-carb diet researcher, to bring you the crystal-clear information you need to understand what a ketogenic diet is and why it may be the missing element in your pursuit of optimal health. This book includes exclusive interviews from twenty of the world's foremost authorities from various fields bringing their depth of expertise and experience using this nutritional approach. Moore and Westman explain why ketosis is normal and how this nutritional approach is being used therapeutically by many medical professionals. You will find a step-by-step guide to help you produce more ketones and track your progress, real life success stories, and more. The solid evidence for nutritional ketosis in dealing with many of the chronic health problems of our day is presented, including but not limited to: epilepsy, Type 2 diabetes, obesity, cardiovascular disease, metabolic syndrome, polycystic ovarian syndrome, irritable bowel syndrome.

I don't think I would have gone ahead and read the whole print version due to the overwhelming amount of scientific and technical information. But in this audio version, I listened to every part as carefully as possible. I am sure when I go through it again I will have more of the important points hit home for me. The reader did an excellent job. His voice is very clear and precise and carries a feeling of being an authority on the subject. Very professional. I am sure if I tried reading the printed copy first I would have struggled trying to pronounce many of the words.
My daughter has been trying to tell me for years that gluten is bad for me. Of course I knew she was knowledgeable about it and was telling me the truth. But the overwhelming scientific evidence presented in this book could not be ignored.
So many of the health effects that were mentioned are health issues that I have and had attributed to my genes. But then he hit on one particular issue that hit home. Dermatitis Herpitiformus is a condition that I only acquired a few years ago. It is an annoying condition. I have had psoriasis for many years and just accepted it.
Of course the doctors prescribed cortizone cream for that. But they never tell us how we suddenly have these conditions. We are just supposed to use their solutions which always involve chemicals that we know we should not have in or on our bodies. I am sure if I went to the doctor for my new skin concern the treatment recommended would have been the same. I have never had any doctor tell me that the root of some of my health issues were probably caused by the food items I eat. They are always prompt to tell me that my weight is the source of my high blood pressure. I am sure that it is true also. But they never go any further with that. They also never bother to tell us that some of the medicines they prescribe may have serious side effects short or long term. For example, Cortizone creams are not meant to be used more than a few days in a row and don't actually fix the problem long term. However, when you stop using the cream after 10 days (the recommended length of time that the doctor doesn't tell you about), eventually the condition flares back up.
I have Dermatitis Herpitiformus as well as many other conditions that are explained in the book. And now with the information in Wheat Belly, it makes sense. I made a decision that I needed to go wheat free immediately.
I found all the food in my pantry, fridge and freezer that had wheat and gluten and tossed or donated it all. I now read more labels. The surprising thing is that I don't really miss the wheat or gluten. There is a down side. All of those wonderful wheat and gluten free products cost a lot more. But as described in the book, I don't crave all the snacks I used to eat throughout the day. Getting wheat out of my new way of eating actually helps save money by me not eating all those junk foods.
We are so lucky these days that there are so many alternative foods available. I have found that I actually love the wheat & gluten free bread that I am now making. I have long been discusted with all the unpronouceable ingredients in most of our normal everyday food. It is so delightful to be able to pronounce the ingredients in the food I now buy.
I highly recommend this book and look forward to the accompanying cookbook that will be published soon.

Life Changing
If you are interested in nutrition or better health you must read this book. As the parent of a child diagnosed with diabetes 6 years ago and celiac disease 5 years ago, I have become pretty educated on nutrition out of necessity, Reading this book was more eye opening than perhaps anything I have ever read. Through practicing what I have learned in this book I have personally lost weight and become much healthier in a multitude of ways. The results are so noticeable and I talk about it so much that numerous friends and relatives have read the book and experienced the same results. My brother in law who is a physician has read the book, experienced the results and is literally dumbfounded as to why this information is not taught in medical school. I have never been one to believe in conspiracy theories, but why this information is not common knowlege is inexplicable.
Don't take my word for it, read the book and form your own opinion, it will be life changing.

Outstanding Information
Any additional comments?
This book was recommended to us by a family member who had gone "gluten free". We were on the fence in our thoughts about the gluten free frenzy, but decided to listen. In our early 50's, we were beginning to experience some negative health issues and figured we had nothing to lose. As it was a book for information, rather than pure pleasure, we didn't mind the narration being less than amazing. lol It was clear and easy to understand.We were absolutely amazed at what we learned and other sources have backed up the information.We took the plunge and went gluten free one week. In that 7 day period, we ate healthy, never went hungry and experienced the following: A 7 lb and 5 lb weight loss, respectively. My dermatitus on my hands completely cleared. My joint paint disappeared. The next week, our work (we are team drivers on the road) was chaotic, we weren't prepared and fell off the wagon. ALL symptoms returned. It was unreal. Needless to say, we will be following a gluten free lifestyle.Highly recommend this book to anyone truly interested in improving their health. It's easy to understand and logically presented.

Eye opening
It kept my interest and was very informative. I think everyone should be aware of the impact modern wheat has in our bodies. Who knew that everything from acne to osteoporosis could be attributed to wheat gluten. Slimming down is just icing on the gluten free cake.

A Bit Dry & Long
It was an okay book, but a bit of a one pony show. I felt it somewhat overemphasized wheat's role in disease, and while better geared for Celiacs and others with intolerance or allergies, it simply went on a bit long and far hammering wheat....also, most of the information was dry and hard to digest, as well.
But I did manage to listen to it all, and found it an interesting enough prospect to consider. I'll at least think of curbing some of my wheat tendencies.

Great read, ponderous and stuffy narration
This book inspired me to get back to the low-carb life that saved me 12 years ago.

Intriguing until the end
It was intriguing. I’ve thought about going gluten free in the past to help my autoimmune issues. However, he spent the whole book talking about benefits of going wheat/gluten free. Then, in the last chapter says oh and you shouldn’t eat rice, oats, corn, potatoes, beans, legumes, and you should minimize fruit intake. So does going gluten free help or do I have to restrict all those things to help? Waste of time.

Excellent book
I was very much impressed with this book and think it should be part of a library that includes "Why We Get Fat", "The End of Overeating", and perhaps "Good Calories, Bad Calories" if you want a longer version of Why We Get Fat. And if you want to know more what to do with what you are left w/ to eat, try The Perfect Health Diet or The Primal Blueprint (the author pretty much advocates this sort of eating, but uses a more scientific approach than eating that way because ancestors did)
As far as a review of the audio, it's in the upper half of good to me. Didn't put me to sleep, didn't overemphasize or dramatize things, and was read about how I would read it.
As far as the content: It seems impossible at first to consider that wheat could be bad since it's been used since bible times, but you'll find in the first few chapters how much our current version has been genetically (not just hybrid) modified to create a grain that produces a much more powerful blood sugar spike, has a much higher gluten content, and is problematic for most people. Reading this book, it is hard to not want to give up wheat. The problem lies in whether or not the individual is willing to make those changes.
The only cons I see is that he is less aggressive on complete avoidance of vegetable oils and is less strict on sugar, tho he does say to avoid and limit both. As to the previous reviewer, I have a medical background and have spent considerable time reading all the above mentioned books and following the current research. The more I read, the more I'm convinced that wheat is very much toxic and can be at least partially to blame for many of the diseases affecting our society. Type II Diabetes is related to diet, excess fat accumulation, etc and is very much preventable even if one does have a genetic predisposition to it (read "Why We Get Fat" and you'll see how our overweight mothers are partially responsible for this). There is a reason that the numbers are rising rapidly along with our waistline sizes. DM type II is a problem that can be prevented by diet and sent into remission if, like the author mentions, the beta cells that produce the insulin have not been so destroyed that they can not recover. I have helped and seen multiple diabetics get completely off insulin and have normal blood sugars and A1C after losing the weight and avoiding the carbohydrates that cause blood sugar elevation and also prediabetics who have had those numbers return to normal ranges after changes in diet and this book can help you get started in that direction or avoid it altogether.

lnteresting testimonies; weak science
Dr. William Davis is a passionate scientist and healer, who is convinced that wheat is the root of almost all that can go wrong with the body. He proceeds through maladies including but not limited to GERD, coronary artery disease, obesity, diabetes, Celiac disease, ED, and acne. Oh, I forgot arthritis. Davis supports each of these with whatever is available from anecdotal, correlational, or experimental research. His writing style is engaging and his anecdotes are inspiring. However, his leaps of faith based on correlational data make one realize that he must have missed the classes on correlational versus causal variance in the research course which he took. Still, the book caused me to do my own experiment and try his recommendations for ninety days. Here is to the new me.
