I am a type 2 Diabetic that struggled for several years to lose any weight and my wife has mold sensitivity. I would go to the gym 4-6 days a week and was still stuck at my weight. I got the "Wheat Belly" book and cut my gluten consumption to near zero and my high fructose corn syrup to very low also. Dropped 20 lbs in 4 month.

On the 4th I had a couple of hot dogs on buns and had a couple of severe headaches, that I have not had in you guessed it 4 month.

I think it all depends on the person, For me it works, for others maybe not so much.

Everything keeps my weight up, flour, potatoes anything with sugar. I’m an equal opportunity fatty.

Haven’t have bread for 20 days and it helps a lot, but no potatoes either.

I notice that if I eat less beef, I lose faster.

Read a book once, I think it was called “Eat for Your Type. Theme was your blood type determines the style your should eat, meat, vegan etc.

Author tracked it back to cave man days.

I wanted to be a carnivore, but book said we A+ types need to be vegans. My experience with beef may confirm that but gotsta have my steak.

I have no doubt it is probably very beneficial for most people. And the cutting out the HFCS has to be beneficial.

I will tell you what--our food, here in the United States, is so chemicalized. When I am out of the country, in Europe in particular, I feel 1000% better. They actually have real food. Dairy tastes like dairy. Produce is ridiculously fresh and natural. Bread? Forget about it. Divine. No rubber tires in the bread. The Euros don't do much right but food, they do it well.

Even beer. I was in the Czech Republic the past three weeks. I was drinking a beer every night with dinner. A big beer--if for no reason other than it was, like, $1 for an enormous beer vs a 6 oz Coke. I never got one headache. If I drink one beer here in the US---headache within an hour.

I am convinced much of our problems is due to chemicals. Overeating. Lack of movement.

You learned something that I too figured out quite a while ago. We are all different and what works for one, doesn’t work for someone else.
