About this episode
When the first Wheat Belly book was released in 2011, it quickly leapt to centerstage, gaining a huge worldwide following. Millions of copies of the book were sold in 37 countries, the conversation was featured in major media from network news to Dr. Oz to . I don’t believe that this was due to my personal charm or charisma, but because it worked: people experienced unexpected and substantial health and weight loss benefits even if such things had eluded them for years. Well, over those 15 years, memories have faded and, sadly, some people have gradually gravitated back to consuming this thing that was essentially created in a laboratory with geneticists and farmers amplifying its toxic effects. People succumb to media, marketing, and the pressures of people around them who are ready to say things like “How can that possibly be true?” or “Everything in moderation” or “Just a little won’t hurt.” In this episode of the Defiant Health podcast, let’s review the arguments I made in the original Wheat Belly book to remind you that, yes, this is among the most toxic things that has ever emerged from the food and agribusiness industries.
