We loved Wheat Belly. We also have Grain Brain.
These two books have changed our lives. We read Grain Brain first, then bought Wheat Belly. We are now eating a wheat free diet, and we bought the Wheat Belly cookbook. It's helping us adjust to our new way of eating. I've lost 14 pounds in 6 weeks, and my husband lost 8 #'s. At first we went slow, but we wish we jumped in "whole hog" because he is feeling 100% better. He is an Adult 2 diabetic, has high blood pressure, and had irregular heart beat for awhile, was on two heart pills. He also has RA. Now, he feels so good, he's drop one of the diabetic pills, and one of the heart pills, and is doing great. We don't miss wheat products at all. Now am eating all sorts of veggie casseroles , trying new vegetables, and eating low carb fruit like berries, apples, and melons. We love eating the good fats; butter, avocados, coconut oil in my tea, yes my tea! Olive oil and vinegar on green salads, lots of eggs, like every other day an omelet, or eggs and ham. Eggs in our salad, and boiled eggs for snacks, so satisfying. I can't tell you how happy we are to feel good and lose weight at ages 68 and 71. Amen, what more could I say. Two happy wheat free people in Anna, TX. Thankyou, Doctors Davis and Perlmutter!!!
