Wheat is the top problem with the American diet. Over the past 50 years, Americans have not only begun consuming a genetically altered form of wheat, they’ve also been eating more of it in their daily diets than ever before. This confluence of events has led to a growing incidence of obesity and other health problems that can be traced back to wheat’s detrimental impact on the human body.

    Theres an obvious set push towards motivation here and in this summary they hit the nail on the head indefinitely. I've struggled with weight gain lately and most of all have lost a lot of my motivation towards a lot of things mainly exercise and keeping up after myself. That is what this book aims to change and it does, very well if taken seriously.
  • Amazing!

    Very disappointed. Thought I was buying the whole book. Not clearly stated that it was a summary. Thought it was stated that there was a summary before each chapter. Since I'm dealing with aphasia, that I'm now considering wheat related problems, I was mislead. My problem.
  • Interesting!

    I think it presents a compelling case that the wheat we eat today bears little resemblance to the wheat of one hundred years ago. It has been so genetically-modified and hybridized that our bodies can’t process it. The result is chronic inflammation, leading to everything from poor health to a general lack of energy.
  • Loved it!

    It is a good read to provoke questions about this staple food ( Wheat). Whether you eliminate wheat or still choose to consume it, it is an interesting area of nutrition that is gathering much attention.

    Informative read! Offers a point of view that wheat causes the majority of health and weight problems that are currently plaguing so many people and is blamed for the rise in type 2 diabetes, cataracts, wrinkles, heart disease, rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease and a host of other diseases. According to author, by simply eliminating wheat from your diet, it is suggested that you will be able to quickly lose weight, think more clearly, sleep better and reduce your chances of several diseases.
