Wheat Belly: Lose the Wheat, Lose the Weight, and Find Your Path Back to Health by William Davis

2.0

There may be some truth to this wheat/grain-free diet thing, but this style of writing is sensationalist and fear-mongering. He does not present the studies in a scientific way (though he claims to...I suppose I could look up all the studies he cites, but I don't have the time or desire), and the book is full or repetition and long-winded ramblings that fluff up the length as per publisher requirements. I admit to skipping the middle sections that go on and on about the negative effects of wheat, because what I really wanted to know was breezed through in the final chapter: if I am going to eliminate wheat, how do I replace my current food staples? His assistance in this area is limited. I may try some of the recipes, but I foresee an increase in my grocery bill (even though I already eat mostly whole foods).
