Wow, you will never look at your slice of toast the same way again. A very interesting perspective and everyone should read it, even if you don't have weight to loose.

Well written and easy to read. Concise but comprehensive. References some of the latest research findings on topics including zonulin and exorphins.

"Review"

"Davis makes a compelling case."
"Review"
by Dana Carpender, author of 500 Low-Carb Recipes,
"Fascinating, compelling, and more than a little entertaining, Wheat Belly may be the most important health book of the year."
"Review"
by Dr. John Briffa BSc MB BS nutritional physician and author of Waist Disposal,
"Dr. Davis' comprehensive, readable and witty book reveals that wheat, far from being the staff of life, is in fact the stuff of nightmares. Take his advice to lose wheat from your diet and you'll likely be paid back many times over in the form of a slimmer, healthier body and a better functioning brain."
