The next Wheat Belly 10-Day Grain Detox Challenge begins Wed Sept 16th!
Yes, you may still be practicing social distancing during the COVID-19 pandemic. But you can still begin the process of reclaiming health, losing weight, and emerging from this national crisis in far better shape than when it started. And ask any successful Wheat Belly follower: Do you get sick like other people with viral illnesses every year? You will receive a resounding “NO”: people living this lifestyle enjoy a huge reduction in viral infections that plague other people. We cannot claim that this makes you resistant to coronavirus, but it surely helps to achieve the higher levels of health that we achieve on this lifestyle, including reducing or reversing the insulin resistance that leaves you susceptible to viral infections. You may not have ready and safe access to supermarkets to make the full conversion of your kitchen to a grain-free lifestyle, but you can still take the necessary steps to transform your life.
In addition to losing weight and regaining overall health, the Wheat Belly 10-Day Grain Detox helps reverse insulin resistance, inflammation, and vitamin D deficiency, strategies that improve your immune response considerably.
So put it off no longer: We are planning our next Wheat Belly 10-Day Grain Detox Challenge that starts on Wednesday, September 16th. This is your opportunity to seize control over health and weight, maybe even turn the clock back 10 or 20 years, look and feel better, be freed of numerous, if not all, prescription drugs.
By joining our Wheat Belly 10-Day Grain Detox Challenge, you will have access to:
1) Our Wheat Belly 10-Day Grain Detox Private Facebook page that provides videos, success stories, and plenty of feedback and answers to your questions.
2) LIVE Facebook sessions with Dr. Davis and April Duval, our main Facebook page administrator. Dr. Davis will personally kick off the Detox Challenge on September 16th. And because April is herself an example of a fabulous Wheat Belly Detox success, she knows the ins and outs of this lifestyle like the back of her hand.
To join our Challenge, you must sign up to become a member of the Wheat Belly Blog community with an annual subscription fee of $15.99. Sign up here. Once you have signed up, you will be given access to our Private Facebook page.
By becoming a Wheat Belly community member, you will have access to the huge number of resources available on the Wheat Belly Blog, also—nearly 2000 posts with additional recipes, tips, new concepts, avoiding pitfalls, etc. as well as supporting this cause and covering the costs of Wheat Belly staff.
Our goal: to help you succeed in turning around your life and health and achieve all your health goals including weight loss, getting off prescription medications, and turning back the clock 10 or 20 years.
Why the Detox Challenge?
Through my New York Times bestseller, Wheat Belly, millions of people learned how to reverse years of chronic health problems by removing wheat from their daily diets. But, after reading the original Wheat Belly or the Wheat Belly Total Health book, or even using the recipes from the Wheat Belly Cookbook and Wheat Belly 30-Minute Cookbook, people still said: “I’ve read the books, but I’m still not sure how to get started on this lifestyle.”
That’s why I wrote the Wheat Belly 10-Day Grain Detox and now help readers along in this Wheat Belly 10-Day Grain Detox CHALLENGE. This is the quickest, most assured way to get started on regaining magnificent health and slenderness by adopting the Wheat Belly lifestyle.
We are kicking off the next Wheat Belly 10-Day Grain Detox Challenge on Facebook LIVE on Day 1: Wednesday, September 16th, 12 pm EDT/11 am CDT/10 am MDT/9 am PDT. Come join us on the private Wheat Belly 10-Day Grain Detox Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/groups/52751...
The Wheat Belly 10-Day Grain Detox supplies you with carefully designed meal plans and delicious recipes to fully eliminate wheat and related grains in the shortest time possible. Perfect for those who may have fallen off the wagon or for newcomers who need a jump-start for weight loss, this new addition to the Wheat Belly phenomenon guides you through the complete 10-Day Detox experience. And we will kick off this next Challenge with a live Facebook session with Dr. Davis on Day 1!
In addition to this quick-start program, I’ll show you:
How to recognize and reduce wheat-withdrawal symptoms,
How to avoid common landmines that can sabotage success
How to use nutritional supplements to further advance weight loss and health benefits
How to effectively navigate the grocery store and choose safe products
How weight loss and magnificent health are achievable without cutting calories, without hunger
To join the Detox Challenge:
Step 1
Get the book. And read it (at least the first 5 chapters).
Detox Challenge participants should be informed and active in order to get the most out of the challenge and private Facebook group. READING THE WHEAT BELLY DETOX BOOK IS REQUIRED TO PARTICIPATE. PLEASE DO NOT PARTICIPATE IF YOU HAVE NOT READ THE BOOK or else the conversations will not make sense and you will not enjoy full benefit. It is a very bad idea to try and piece the program together just from our conversations. (Note that the Wheat Belly Detox program is NOT laid out in the original Wheat Belly book.)

L. reuteri survey results
The results of my recent survey on the effects of consuming L. reuteri yogurt are in.
There were 7 questions with responses ranging from 0 to 10. Of the 84 people who provided responses, here is what they said:
My sleep is deeper and/or it is easier to fall asleep or stay asleep: 5.1
62% reported moderate improvement in sleep or better, while 13.25% reported dramatic improvement, 23% reported no improvement.
My appetite has diminished: 4.9
57.8% reported moderate reduction in appetite or more.
My skin is smoother, wrinkles less prominent: 5.3
60.7% reported moderate skin improvement or better, 13% reported dramatic improvement, 19% reported little to no change.
My strength has increased and/or I’ve gained muscle: 4.5
50% reported moderate increase in strength/muscle, with 26% reporting no change.
My libido has increased: 3.7
39.7% reported moderate increase in libido or greater.
I feel more empathetic towards other people: 4.7
54.8% reported moderate increase in empathy or greater. The final score of 4.7 was weighted down by the 29.8% who experienced no increase in empathy.
Among the comments posted:
“My hair has gotten thicker and color seems to be slowly coming back darker.”
“While I have not lost a lot of weight many friends have commented on my weight loss. We have put this down to muscle gain and toning.”
“I find it easier to concentrate at work, for example, when I am writing.”
“I feel much calmer.”
“Feeling happier. Skin softer.”
“Muscle strength is so much greater. I’m a golfer and my drives and fairway hits are much better. Now if it could only help my putting.”
“Stomach problems gone.”
“Great compliments regarding skin.”
“Overall health feels better, feeling of well being, calm.”
“Rosacea cleared.”
“Less muscular/joint pain, no more acid reflux, much better skin condition.”
Clearly, there is variation in results experienced among different people. One thing I cannot judge from these results is whether, for instance, someone who experiences reduction in appetite also experiences reduction in skin wrinkles, i.e., does one response correlate with another? While this is an informal survey, not a clinical study, it is interesting that the most prominent benefit observed appears to be in skin health, least in libido. While gastrointestinal effects were not among the queries, the comments on improved gastrointestinal health likely reflect the upper GI tract-colonizing and bacteriocin-producing effects unique to L. reuteri, effects that, I believe, reflect a partial reduction in small intestinal bacterial overgrowth, SIBO.
In the meantime, we shall be working towards discovering ways to increase responsiveness: increase the number of people experiencing effects and increase the magnitude of benefits in those who respond. Should we increase the quantity of bacteria, the quantity of yogurt, combine with a strategy that further augments oxytocin responsiveness, combine with one or more bacterial species/strains that amplifies the effects? Can we increase specific benefits by, say, combining L. reuteri and its oxytocin-boosting effects with collagen hydrolysates? What happens when someone specifically interested in restoring youthful muscle and strength combines L. reuteri with strength training and low-dose creatine?
