Another attempt to make money selling books by making "new and revealing" statements.
Very little research has been done for this book, other than observations from the author, who blames wheat for all deseases under the sun...
Contrary to the statement made in the book, we all know deep down that the obesity problem in our society, is more related to food quantity and quality vs our activity levels and not wheat, carbs, gi index and so on.
If nutrition is of interest, look into the china study or the okinawa program, two books that actually have research and common sense to back them up.

It has been TWO weeks since I read this book and changed my food habits and I have never felt better! I am more alert and feel amazing! I am eating more veggies, healthy fats and protien and have noticed my body responding! The book is well written and very informative! I highly recommend the read. In comparssion to the Paleo diet; Wheat Belly still allows flax, quinoa and dairy products (and gives reasons why). Dr Davis explores how wheat has changed and evolved over the years into a grain that our bodies are not processing.

A fantastic read - Dr. Davis has nailed the cause of the obesity epidemic!!! As a carbohydrate addict with binge eating disorder, I consider this book to be my Bible. It's easy to read, humorous and very informative.
