Having a hard time losing those last 5-10 lbs around your midsection? It might not be your workout regime, it might be your diet! A lot of folks are unknowingly allergic to wheat (and sometimes even gluten). It creates an inflammatory response in many people with symptoms ranging from digestive gas/cramping, skin rashes, and dark circles under the eyes to fatigue and excess weight.
I have been reading the book Wheat Belly by William Davis M.D. And was shocked to realize how genetically modified the Wheat Plant is and how addictive it is! I have always been sensitive to wheat products but after omitting them from my diet for 2-3 weeks I realize that I am downright allergic to it. After those few weeks the dark circles under my eyes disappeared, my digestion greatly improved, and I lost 2-3 pounds of fat around my midsection and thighs? Who knew one grain could make such a difference. Try reading this book and following this diet and see if you too have a Wheat Belly!
Love this book! Super eye opening and motivating to eat clean.
