Wheat Belly: Lose the Wheat, Lose the Weight, and Find Your Path Back to Health

So we stop eating the trigger for that abnormality, which is wheat, grains, and sugars, not fat, not saturated fat, not butter, not olive oil, not the fat on your beef or pork, wheat, grains, and sugars.

And that's a whole other conversation, but see my other videos and other conversations elsewhere, like my blog, williamdavesmd.com, thousands of conversations, as well as my books, Super Gut, Super Body, Wheat Belly, Undoctored, where I show you why this is so important.

Because wheat grains and sugars, when ingested, cause the liver to engage in a process called liver de novo lipogenesis that causes the liver to produce VLDL particles, very low-density lipoproteins, that are converted to the small, dense LDL particles.

So it's wheat grain and sugar elimination also has a huge and powerful effect.

So how about books in the last few years? Anybody gotten Wheat Belly and Grain Brain? Raise your hand.

Yeah.

So it's, uh, by a couple of...

Omega-3 fatty acids play an especially important role here because not only do they reduce insulin resistance and inflammation, thereby liver de novo lipogenesis, but they actually reduce triglycerides themselves in the blood reduce vldl accelerate their clearance from the bloodstream so omega-3s are very very important but it's the combination that acts synergistically to minimize insulin resistance and inflammation now if you need to know how to do each of those separately see my other videos see my thousands of blog posts WilliamDavisMD.com, see my many books.

I describe this process in virtually all my books, from Wheat Belly to Undoctored to Super Body and Super Gut.

Lastly, we address the disruption of the gastrointestinal microbiome, whether it's in the colon only or involving the small intestine.

The way we've been doing my programs is to choose microbes that we know will colonize the small intestine and colon, which most beneficial or probiotic species will not do.
