Paleo Challenge Spotlight: Wheat Belly by Dr. Davis!
If you haven't put your nose into a Paleo resource book, yet, you might want to consider finding one! It can be a great motivating tool throughout the next 50 days and the rest of your life. I'm currently reading, Wheat Belly: Lose the Wheat, Lose the Weight and Find Your Path Back to Health, by Cardiologist William Davis. Here's a little fact Dr. Davis puts in his book, page 34: "Therefore, wheat products elevate blood sugar levels more than virtually any other carbohydrate, from beans to candy bars. This has important implications for body weight, since glucose is unavoidably accompanied by insulin, the hormone that allows entry of glucose into the cells of the body, converting the glucose to fat. The higher the blood glucose after consumption of food, the greater the insulin level, the more fat is deposited."
