These kinds of inputs are becoming more common on the wheat belly FB page:

Dear Dr. Davis, Thank you for writing such an important book, your Wheat Belly book of 2010. Do you have others, or do you contribute to specific medical journals and if so, which ones?

This morning you have caught my doctor's attention. He now has a copy of your book and I told him that I wish everyone at Duke, UNC and ECU could also have a copy. This is a celebration day and after my doctor's appt. with him I went out and had a celebration lunch.

After ten long years, my diabetes has improved so much (A1C was 5.9 this morning) that he has taken me OFF THE DIABETES PILL. Thank you again, just wanted you and all the Wheat Belly facebook friends to know. May God grant you the same dia muy bueno !!!!!!!

Gyro -

Thanks for the compliment. But seriously, why do we have dentitia and jaw structures that are ideal for grinding grains and other plants, while our teeth are no where near what pure carnivores have?

We are meant to be omnivores - whether you believe in intelligent design or pure evolutionary theory doesn't matter - we are built the way we are built. We are not built to be pure carnivores.

I wonder if these health problems the book associates with grains appear in the indigenous populations that eat huge amounts of grain based foods, like native peoples in Mexico and Central and South America, where corn is a daily staple that makes up a huge percentage of their diet.

Good point about the teeth. We ARE omnivores, not exclusively carnivores. Our bodies, our genetic programming, are optimized for omnivorous survival. We are designed to eat animals/birds/fish we kill and use tools to break apart and/or cook, to eat green leafy stuff, and to eat stuff that grows on trees and vines. Our teeth are dual purpose teeth,.. we have canines for shredding and pulling, yet we have molars for grinding.

Grains are a fairly recent factor. Maybe 9,000 years ago, grains started getting some notice, and began to be grown as crops. Prior to that grain consumption was minimal. 9,000 years is nowhere enough time to change chromosome counts, etc., to make those kinds of adaptations. We are still not optimized for grains.

The book does address the grainy diets of other cultures. Our culture, is the focus, though, and arrival of grains as a staple was quite detrimental.

The same reason he made nukes, VD, cancer, war, gnats, socialists, mesothelioma, and hangy-down pants. The Lord works in strange ways.

He also gave us the intelligence to deal with those problems,.. to deal with the problems we create for ourselves. We are now discovering the problems we created for ourselves with wheat. We have the intelligence to overcome the huge mistake we made with our addiction to wheat.

I just made a miraculous discovery. I downloaded a pc kindle app (free on Amazon), then downloaded the Kindle version of the book. For a lousy $9.45 you get a copy of the book to view on the computer screen, and you can search it for any term/concept/reference instantly. Yay.

This morning I remembered a statement in the book about how a bowl of oatmeal would give you a blood sugar spike of 300 mg/dl. For the life of me I could NOT find that statement. Now I can find those kinds of things in nanoseconds. Yay some more.

In the TT thread, Webstermark asked about a "Wheat Belly."

Here's a gross pic that illustrates the diff between a wheat belly and plain old fat. Wheat belly comes about when, in addition to plain old abdominal fat, the visceral organs are each surrounded and infused with fat, forcing a protrusion of the belly,... creating a Wheat Belly.

Wheat is the main factor in visceral fat.

Here's another one:

I read the book. I'm totally convinced. My hubby's been doing it for 2 weeks now. He's type 2. Sugars were in high 300,s now they are around 145 - 160,s. Im amazed. Was going to wait till after Christmas to start, but that's not soon enough. Starting today.

(normal blood sugar level for non-diabetics is somewhere around 100.)

"Wheat Belly" Reply #509 - 12/20/11 at 21:11:35 I didn't realize it, but the Wheat Belly book has been on the NY Times Best Seller list since September. No wonder my local Barnes & Noble never has any copies. I am using a Kindle version now on my desktop PC and Droid.
