The Addictive Properties of Wheat
Wheat displays addictive properties similar to opioid drugs. This food actually displays similar effects on the brain as opioids do. People consume certain foods for a "fix"….caffeine in coffee, for example. However, wheat is consumed for nutrition purposes, so people don't often stop to consider it may be addictive. Removing wheat out of the diet can be difficult due to these addictive properties. People who remove wheat from their diet often report fewer mood swings, improved mood, better sleep, and improved concentration ability.
Wheat and Celiac Disease
Approximately 1% of the population is unable to tolerate wheat gluten, even in small quantities. When these people ingest wheat gluten, the barrier of the intestine breaks down, and leads to diarrhea and cramping. Over the years, these patients are unable to absorb nutrients, lose weight, and develop nutritional deficiencies.
Since the intestinal barrier is broken down, this allows the proteins to cross into the body and find their way into places not welcomed, such as the bloodstream, which is how celiac disease is diagnosed.

Preface & Introduction
Wheat Belly is a book by William Davis, MD. Dr. Davis utilizes his own experience as a Medical Doctor along with the history of wheat to provide compelling information on how this product has impacted America’s waistline and other factors in everyday life.
Looking at photos of years ago, not many photos of obese people were found. Women typically weighed 110 to 115 pounds while men were 150 to 165 pounds. Currently our society carries a lot more weight with a lot more obesity, even with exercising.
Fifty years ago, women weren’t seen exercising while now you can find women exercising anywhere you go.
Even one-third of intense athletes are overweight. The reason isn’t due to not exercising enough or eating too much, rather, eating what we believe to be wheat. It isn’t fat or sugar that is causing obesity, it is modern day wheat.
Modern day wheat is as close to true wheat as a chimpanzee is to a human. Chimpanzees are 99% identical to humans in the genetic code, so it can be seen the difference just 1% makes. Modern wheat is even further apart than 1% from actual wheat.

Chapter 1: What Belly?
In past centuries, a large belly was a sign of wealth and success. In today’s age, anyone can have a large belly.
It is called wheat belly
although the obesity can impact any body part, not just the belly. The wheat belly comes about because of an accumulation of fat that comes from consuming foods that trigger insulin.
