Dwarf wheat contains very high levels of a super starch called amylopectin A, which makes bread fluffy which increases the starch content and contributes to added weight gain. They bind to the opioid receptors in the brain creating a mild morphine-like effect. The wheat polypeptides are absorbed into the bloodstream and cross the blood brain barrier. Testing for celiac disease can be done through a blood test assessing for elevated antibodies to gluten anti-gliadin, AGA, or tissue transglutaminase antibodies , as well as an intestinal biopsy.
If you do not have celiac disease, then you might have gluten sensitivity. You can also do a food allergy test panel assessing IgE and IgG antibodies to 96 foods.

But Dr. Davis believes the problems with wheat extend way beyond gluten to impact everyone. His Wheat Belly Diet is for anyone who wants to reverse disease, lose weight and feel better overall. Davis, most people on the diet start to see a reduction in pounds within just a few days. Eliminate wheat entirely from your diet. This extreme method is the only way of breaking the dependency since wheat is so addictive.
Eliminate breads, pastas, cakes, cookies — everything you know of that contains wheat. Also, eliminate all hidden wheat by reading food labels. And avoid processed gluten-free foods that contain unhealthy additives such as cornstarch. The Wheat Belly Diet provides you with plenty of tasty recipes:. When Mila Kunis was a guest on the show " Hot Ones " where guests eat spicy wings and answer questions in October, she said that her husband Ashton Kutcher was hospitalized twice with pancreatitis while preparing for his role as the late Steve Jobs because he was following the Apple founder's "fruit-only" diet.
At one point, Kutcher was "only eating grapes," she said. The couple, who co-starred together on "That 70s Show," has previously made headlines for their comments about bathing — or a lack thereof. Gluten, a protein found in wheat, barley, rye, spelt and oats can cause celiac disease, which triggers severe inflammation throughout the body and has been linked to autoimmune diseases, mood disorders, autism, schizophrenia, dementia , digestive disorders, nutritional deficiencies, diabetes, cancer, and more.
Celiac disease and gluten related problems has been increasing and now affects at least 21 million Americans and perhaps many millions more. In a recent study comparing blood samples taken 50 years ago from 10, young Air Force recruits to samples taken recently from 10, people, researchers found something quite remarkable. There has been a real percent increase in celiac disease over the last 50 years 3.
We used to think that this only was diagnosed in children with bloated bellies, weight loss and nutritional deficiencies.
But now we know it can be triggered based on a genetic susceptibility at any age and without ANY digestive symptoms. The inflammation triggered by celiac disease can drive insulin resistance, weight gain and diabetes, just like any inflammatory trigger — and I have seen this over and over in my patients.
The second way gluten causes inflammation is through a low-grade autoimmune reaction to gluten. A major study in the Journal of the American Medical Association , hidden gluten sensitivity elevated antibodies without full blown celiac disease was shown to increase risk of death by 35 to 75 percent, mostly by causing heart disease and cancer. How does eating gluten cause inflammation, heart disease, obesity, diabetes and cancer?
Most of the increased risk occurs when gluten triggers inflammation that spreads like a fire throughout your whole body. It damages the gut lining. If you spread out the lining of your gut it would equal the surface area of a tennis court. Your immune system starts attacking these foreign proteins leading to systemic inflammation that then causes heart disease, dementia, cancer, diabetes and more.
Zonulin breaks up the tight junctions or cement between the intestinal cells that normally protect your immune system from bugs and foreign proteins in food leaking across the intestinal barrier. It is because, as I described earlier, the dwarf wheat grown in this country has changed the quality and type of gluten proteins in wheat, creating much higher gluten content and many more of the gluten proteins that cause celiac disease and autoimmune antibodies.
Combine that with the damage our guts have suffered from our diet, environment, lifestyle, and medication use, and you have the perfect storm for gluten intolerance. This super gluten crosses our leaky guts and gets exposed to our immune system. Our immune system reacts as if gluten was something foreign and sets off the fires of inflammation in an attempt to eliminate it.
However, this inflammation is not selective, so it begins to attack our cells—leading to diabesity and other inflammatory diseases. Damage to the gastrointestinal tract from overuse of antibiotics, anti-inflammatory drugs like Advil or Aleve, and acid-blocking drugs like Prilosec or Nexium, combined with our low-fiber, high-sugar diet, leads to the development of celiac disease and gluten intolerance or sensitivity and the resultant inflammation.
That is why elimination of gluten and food allergens or sensitivities can be a powerful way to prevent and reverse diabesity and so many other chronic diseases.
Not only does wheat contain super starch and super gluten — making it super fattening and super inflammatory, but it also contains a super drug that makes you crazy, hungry and addicted. These wheat polypeptides are absorbed into the bloodstream and get right across the blood brain barrier. These super drugs can cause multiple problems including schizophrenia and autism.
But they also cause addictive eating behavior including cravings and bingeing. No one binges on broccoli, but they binge on cookies or cake. Even more alarming is the fact that you can block these food cravings and addictive eating behaviors and reduce calorie intake by giving the same drug we use in the emergency room to block heroin or morphine in an overdose called naloxone.
If you have 3 out of 5 criteria, you should be gluten free for life. So go cold turkey for six weeks. A lot of that is because foods that are high in gluten also tend to be high in refined sugars, fats, and artificial ingredients. But if you continue to eat gluten and you have an intolerance, you could actually end up having problems with too much weight loss.
Gluten intolerance can make it impossible for your body to absorb the nutrients from your food.
