If you eliminate wheat from your diet, you're no longer hungry between meals because you've cut out the appetite stimulant, and consequently you lose weight very quickly. I've seen this with thousands of patients.

Therefore, wheat products elevate blood sugar levels more than virtually any other carbohydrate, from beans to candy bars.

A lot of patients you know if you haven't seen them for 6 months or a year, you won't remember what medicines they're on or what kind of problems they have. And you know I'd feel much better if I know a little bit about the patient before I walk in the room, so I won't be too surprised.

If I am used to looking at a paper chart and finding information that I know approximately where I'm going to look at that and now I have to go to a computer and find it a different way.

If you have 15 minutes per visit, and you spend the first 9 minutes just collecting information from them, before you do anything else, you know half of your visit is gone already. So if you have an automated system that has most of that and, and in some cases I actually have patients complete questionnaires before they come in, so I'd gotten most of the information I need to ask about, already recorded, instead of having 9 minutes I can take 3 minutes to review all this information.

Reputation is what you have when you come to a new community; character is what you have when you go away.

A wheat belly represents the accumulation of fat that results from years of consuming foods that trigger insulin, the hormone of fat storage.
