What medications have you been able to stop on the Wheat Belly lifestyle?
I posed this question on the Wheat Belly Facebook page recently and received an overwhelming response. Here, I share a partial list of the responses: medications people have been able to stop by following the Wheat Belly lifestyle.
Just take a look at this incredible list: these represent medications prescribed by doctors to, in effect, “treat” the consequences of consuming wheat and grains. They prescribe drugs to treat the inflammation, swelling, skin rashes, gastrointestinal irritation, high blood sugars, airway allergy, and other abnormal effects all caused by wheat and grains.
The list includes anti-inflammatory and pain medication, acid reflux drugs, injectable and oral drugs for diabetes, numerous anti-hypertensive agents, asthma inhalers and allergy drugs, drugs for migraine headaches, and others. It is truly an astounding list that represents drugs that were unnecessary, costly, and filled with side-effects, both acute and long-term. It is a fascinating reflection of how this lifestyle works to restore the human body back to its pre-grain state and thereby reverses so many modern health conditions.
