Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Dr. Davis provides solutions to health problems by addressing the microbiome, massively disrupted in modern people. He shows readers in his Super Gut book, for instance, how to restore important lost microbes lost such as Lactobacillus reuteri, restored by using a unique method of yogurt fermentation that smooths skin and reduces wrinkles, restores youthful muscle and strength, deepens sleep, reduces appetite and provides many other youth-preserving and anti-aging effects. In Super Gut and in his website, www.DrDavisInfiniteHealth.com, he provides additional do-it-yourself-at-home strategies for benefits such as improved mood, improved athletic performance, better sleep, heightened immunity, and improved body composition.

Dr. William Davis is also responsible for exposing the incredible nutritional blunder made by "official" health agencies: Eat more "healthy whole grains." The wheat of today is different from the wheat of 1960, thanks to extensive genetics manipulations introduced to increase yield-per-acre. Eliminating wheat yields results beyond everyone's expectations: substantial weight loss, correction of cholesterol abnormalities, relief from inflammatory diseases like arthritis, better mood, reduced blood sugar with many type 2 diabetics being freed of insulin and other drugs, all articulated through his Wheat Belly series of books. He is also a champion of individual self-directed health, as discussed in his Undoctored book.

Dr. Davis lives what he preaches, not having indulged in a wheat-containing bagel, ciabatta, or pretzel in many years, while consuming various fermentation products that yield unexpected health benefits. Dr. Davis lives in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

My health and life have gotten a zillion times better. There's so much I've learned from Dr Davis
Since I've been wheat free for 6 1/2 years and grain free for 4 1/2 years I've been following Dr Davis. My health and life have gotten a zillion times better. There's so much I've learned from Dr Davis. I just bought the Slim Guide and it's great to carry with me. He updates information continually and this book is one more way to learn new things and stay on track. I'm 70 years old.

At a trip to a local health food store, the owner started talking to me about the Wheat Belly books and Dr. Davis. The concept of giving up wheat and grains was very intriguing and I picked up Wheat Belly Total Health, then the cookbook,v the Detox book and now this Slim Guide. All of the books provide valuable information, some of it overlap's but with each book I get a few new ideas, recipes and tips to navigate this very different lifestyle. I started in November and was completely compliant by mid December. It was the best holiday season I ever had because I got through it with no weight gain, even lost a couple of pounds. But the best part of the lifestyle is the freedom from food cravings. If you are a slave to your hunger and food cravings, these books will be your saving grace. The Slim Guide is great because there are helpful dining out tips as well which the other books don't include. I bought the digital version so I can have it with me on my phone at all times for quick reference. Really great book!

I have been following Dr. Davis and living the Wheat Belly lifestyle for over a year and a half (as of 1/14/17). I've been grain, sugar and potato free for that long as well! I love "Wheat Belly Total Health" is the most comprehensive book that he has out! I've lost close to 130 lbs and reversed my diabetes and SO much more!
So, what about "Wheat Belly Slim Guide." I pre-ordered it, read it, and I love it!! It's so small and yet covers so much! It gives you all the essentials that you need to get started as well as a great guide to carry around with you! I pulled it out a few times in the grocery store the other day. Great information! Even which brands to buy on a few items. My guess is that once you read this, get grain free and feel so much better than you ever dreamed possible again, you will want to know more!
Great to add to your Wheat Belly library if you already have others too!!

This book is exactly as described. Gives overview into wheat belly lifestyle. It does a good job of listing all foods acceptable and what foods are best used for cooking and why
There are some recipes however I wish there had been more 'common use' meal suggestions and recipies. But it's a slim guide :) definitely worth it if you are needing something to take to grocery store as a product guide though.

This is the perfect resource to hand to anyone who wants a quick and easy guide to get started with the grain/sugar-free lifestyle. I have all of Dr. Davis's books and have been doing this since August 2014, with radically positive results to my health and weight. However, I find that when I try to explain to friends or family how to get started on this, they find it overwhelming. While it's true that it's challenging to have to re-learn what it actually means to have healthy eating habits, it can be done ... and it's worth it. I no longer have food cravings and have kept off the 38 pounds I lost almost 2.5 years now. I no longer suffer from joint pain, flaky skin, IBS symptoms, and Vitamin D deficiency. I'm in my late 50s and my cholesterol and triglyceride levels are better than when I was in my 20s.

Exactly as promised, this is the most portable version of Dr. Davis' wonderful program. Especially useful if you live or travel to places where you can't look things up on the internet...or even if you can't get online at Whole Foods! Put in your purse or your backback so you'll have it handy. That's what I did the day it arrived. I have since taken it out several times to check on things. Also good motivational reading if you're stuck in traffic or have a few minutes to wait before the kids are done at soccer practice. You do know all this, but until your wheat-induced brain fog clears completely you might forget some of it, so don't leave home again without this handy book.

I've spent some bucks buying lots of probiotics. We bought 250 billion in a powder and 100 billion with 37 strains, and 50 billion and 40 billion. They all have worked and pretty much cured my daughter's 10-year-long gut problems that we did not realize what was causing it. Sensitivity to modern wheat because it's been chemically mutated in 1970. Not genetically mutated, chemically. See Dr. William C. Davis Wheat Belly videos. And all of our good gut bacteria probiotic microbiome had been wiped out or not passed on at all from our mothers because in the 1950s the physicians were told to tell the mothers not to breastfeed and use formula. That was the catalyst of obesity, diabetes, heart disease, joint disease, autism, aspergers, everything... in my opinion from what I've researched... although I am not a physician or scientist. But Dr. William C. Davis is a cardiologist and he explains it as does Dr. Perlmutter who wrote Grain Brain.

Simple and easy guide for grocery shopping, restaurants, liquor, and supplements. Some easy recipes. Book includes stores and/or websites to get some specific products. Most all products are named along with where to find them. This is on my phone and always with me. Good reference at all times. Even some bolstering props when you think you might cheat. No wheat has changed my life.

My favourite go to gift item for anybody that I care about! This is an excellent summary of Dr William Davis’s longer wheat belly book which is a bit much for many people to get their heads around. This summarises the way to easily go wheat and and grain free and gives you all the necessary information to get started without too much of the scientific background which some people find a bit daunting.
