Wheat Belly
Dr. William Davis
A renowned cardiologist explains how eliminating wheat from our diets can prevent fat storage, shrink unsightly bulges, and
reverse myriad health problems.
Every day, over 200 million Americans consume food products made of wheat. As a result, over 100 million of them experience
some form of adverse health effect, ranging from minor rashes and high blood sugar to the unattractive stomach bulges that preventive
cardiologist William Davis calls “wheat bellies.” According to Davis, that excess fat has nothing to do with gluttony,
sloth, or too much butter: It’s due to the whole grain wraps we eat for lunch.
After witnessing over 2,000 patients regain their health after giving up wheat, Davis reached the disturbing conclusion that
wheat is the single largest contributor to the nationwide obesity epidemic—and its elimination is key to dramatic weight
loss and optimal health. In Wheat Belly, Davis exposes the harmful effects of what is actually a product of genetic
tinkering and agribusiness being sold to the American public as “wheat”—and provides readers with a user-friendly,
step-by-step plan to navigate a new, wheat-free lifestyle.
Informed by cutting-edge science and nutrition, along with case studies from men and women who have experienced life-changing
transformations in their health after waving goodbye to wheat, Wheat Belly is an illuminating look at what is truly
making Americans sick and an action plan to clear our plates of this seemingly benign ingredient.

Good Calories, Bad Calories
Gary Taubes
For decades we have been taught that fat is bad for us, carbohydrates better, and that the key to a healthy weight is eating
less and exercising more.
Yet despite this advice, we have seen unprecedented epidemics of obesity and diabetes. Taubes argues that the problem lies in
refined carbohydrates, like white flour, easily digested starches, and sugars, and that the key to good health is the kind of
calories we take in, not the number.
In this groundbreaking book, award-winning science writer Gary Taubes shows us that almost everything we believe about the nature
of a healthy diet is wrong.
"The most comprehensive 'Critical' review of the scientific literature covering the last 100 years."
Why We Get Fat
Gary Taubes
Building upon his critical work in Good Calories, Bad Calories and presenting fresh evidence for his claim, Gary Taubes revisits
the urgent question of what’s making us fat—and how we can change.
He reveals the bad nutritional science of the last century—none more damaging or misguided than the “calories-in,
calories-out” model of why we get fat—and the good science that has been ignored.
He also answers the most persistent questions: Why are some people thin and others fat? What roles do exercise and genetics
play in our weight? What foods should we eat, and what foods should we avoid? Persuasive, straightforward, and practical, Why
We Get Fat is an essential guide to nutrition and weight management.
Rich Food Poor Food
Mira Calton, Jayson B. Calton
Do you get confused while poring over labels at the grocery store, trying to determine the healthiest options? What makes
one box of cereal better for you than another, and how are we supposed to decipher the extensive lists of mysterious ingredients
on every package, and then determine whether they are safe or toxic to your family's health? With nearly 40,000 items populating
the average supermarket today, the Rich Food Poor Food - Grocery Purchasing System (GPS), is a unique guide that steers the
consumer through the grocery store aisles, directing them to health enhancing Rich Food options while avoiding health detracting
Poor Food ones.
Rich Food, Poor Food is unique in the grocery store guide arena in that rather than rating a particular food using calories,
sodium, or fat as the main criteria, it identifies the products that contain wholesome, micronutrient-rich ingredients that
health-conscious shoppers are looking for, like wild caught fish, grass-fed beef, raw/organic cheese, organic meats, pastured
eggs and dairy, organic produce and sprouted grains, nuts and seeds, while avoiding over 150 common unwanted Poor Food ingredients
such as sugar, high fructose corn syrup, refined flour, GMOs, MSG, artificial colors, flavors and sweeteners, pesticides, nitrites/
nitrates, gluten, and chemical preservatives like BHA and BHT.
Naked Calories
Mira Carlton, Jayson B. Calton
Naked Calories reveals the naked truth about what you are eating and how your lifestyle habits may unknowingly be sabotaging
your health. The secret lies in micronutrients, vitamins and minerals that are being stripped from your diet and depleted by
your lifestyle. On the Caltons' six-year global research expedition they discovered that modern practices such as global food
distribution, factory farming, and food processing are creating foods filled with Naked Calories--calories void of any real
nutritional value. The dynamic authors break it down to a simple three-step plan and teach you how to source better foods, eliminate
unhealthy habits, and make choosing the best supplement as easy as ABC.
Naked Calories, this decade's Fast Food Nation, will help millions of people gain a new depth of understanding about how to
maintain health in the 21st century.
The Caltons are among the world's leading experts on the topics of weight management, lifestyle medicine and micronutrient deficiency.
In 2005, they set sail on a 100-country, 7-continent, 6- year global expedition, exploring the dietary and lifestyle habits
of people around the world. Their research has led them to conclude that micronutrient deficiency is the most widespread and
dangerous health condition of the 21st century. As a couple they bring amazing energy, personal experience, passion and knowledge
to an important subject people are just beginning to buzz about--the overwhelming health benefits of a micronutrient sufficient
lifestyle.
