"Wheat Belly" is a term popularized by Dr. William Davis in his book of the same name, which argues that modern wheat, particularly its high-gluten varieties, contributes to various health issues, including obesity, Diabetes, and digestive problems. The book advocates for a wheat-free diet, claiming that eliminating wheat can lead to weight loss and improved health. Dr. Davis's ideas have sparked debate in the nutritional community, with some praising the approach while others criticize it for lacking robust scientific support.
