Very well-researched and excellent information. After having my twins, I found that the ONLY healthy (& effective) way to lose the pregnancy weight was by ditching the grains.

Didn't know all of the issues with wheat specifically, but so glad that I do now. As soon as I finished this book, my twin toddlers and I became wheat-free . . . and to tell you the truth, it really hasn't been difficult. Since we eat primarily whole foods anyway and are very careful w/ our diets, the only issues we have are when we go to a family member's house.

It's been a couple of weeks and I've lost the extra 5 lbs I put on during the holidays--and my head feels clearer. Not sure if the twins have experienced any positive effects yet (they are 2 years old), but it makes me feel good to know that by ditching the whole wheat in their diets, I'm no longer feeding them such inflammatory foods . . . foods that can potentially lead to dozens of chronic health issues.
