I just finished reading the much-acclaimed book “Wheat Belly” by Dr. William Davis.
It certainly confirmed for me, why the book has been so popular. (I now consider this a must-read).
In his book, Dr. Davis does an elegant job of describing the evolution of modern, hybridized what, and why so many of us have a hard time digesting this modern wonder that leads to so many healthy concerns – not just limited to the digestive system, either.
Dr. Davis also discusses, in detail, the Glycemic Index – an equally important part of the overall picture.
If you’re not familiar with it, the Glycemic Index is a means of measuring how quickly your blood sugar rises upon eating a particular food.
And the foods that have the greatest impact on your blood sugar are – no surprise – carbohydrates, especially whole grain bread!
That means wheat, of course.
