Since 2004, Dr. Davis served as Medical Director of the heart disease prevention and reversal program, Track Your Plaque. In an effort to assist people and his patients reduce their blood sugar (high in over 80% of people nowadays) Dr. Davis had them eliminate wheat, including whole grain products, based on the simple fact that wheat products increase blood sugar more than nearly all other foods. The unexpected result: Incredible weight loss; relief from acid reflux and the gas, cramping, and diarrhea of irritable bowel syndrome; increased energy, more stable moods, and deeper sleep; relief from arthritis, including rheumatoid arthritis; dramatically improved cholesterol values; reduced blood pressure and inflammatory measures, and on and on. It became clear that this was no coincidence. This was real. And it was all due to eliminating this thing being sold to us called wheat. As a result, Wheat Belly was born.
