Defiant Health Radio with Dr. William Davis

William Davis, MD, cardiologist and author of the #1 New York Times bestselling Wheat Belly books, as well as Undoctored and, most recently, Super Gut, brings the unvarnished truth about many health conditions. So much information in health is crafted by industry, bent to the benefit of healthcare systems, delivered by willfully ignorant physicians. Yet a critical mass of truly useful, safe, effective health information has been reached--but someone has to deliver it to you. That is Dr. Davis' intention. Among the topics the Defiant Health Podcast covers are:--Microbiome health--The key to so many health conditions, as well as preservation of youth and vigor, can be found in the microbiome.--Heart health--You will find no mention of cholesterol or statin drugs here, only hard-hitting, science-based insights.--Thyroid health--Why do endocrinologists and other doctors get thyroid health so wrong? Let's get it right.--Weight loss--We don't count calories, don't push the plate away, or echo other ineffective knuckle headed solutions that have created the most overweight population of humans in history.--How to get rid of type 2 diabetes--it's painfully easy. --Get on the road to reversing autoimmune diseases--Take steps today to prevent neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's dementia, Parkinsonism, and multiple sclerosis--And many others.For more information on Dr. Davis' insights and programs, seeWheat Belly books--esp. the Wheat Belly Revised & Expanded Edition, 2019Wheat Belly 30-Minute CookbookWheat Belly 10-Day Grain DetoxUndoctored: Why Health Care Has Failed You and How You Can Become Smarter Than Your DoctorWheat Belly Blog: www.wheatbellyblog.comTalk to me through my membership website, the Undoctored Inner Circle:InnerCircle.Undoctored.com

Thank you Dr Davis

I am so glad I found you! 🤣🤣 I am another human that feels so much better after reading your books and following them!! People regularly compliment my complexion and tell me I look 15 years younger. I’ve lost weight and exercise everyday. I no longer have knee and shoulder pain.

Dr. Eric Westman

As always another great dialogue! Yes, like alcohol, tobacco, and drugs, we NEED a carb intervention….insightful…been on Adkins since Feb 1 and feeling better than the “good” I was feeling before I started. Hard to believe eating MOSTLY proteins…eggs, grass fed/finished beef, chicken and seafood with moderate veggies works….and it does. Hard to give up beans, nuts, and fruit. How do we get in touch with Dr. Eric Westman for further consultation? Nothing in the show notes….thank you.

Amazing information

Thank you Dr Davis! I have read all your books, make SIBO and LR fermented dairy and have learned so much additional information from your podcasts. I look forward to each episode!! You are a national treasure ❤️🎉

Cardiovascular MSN RN.

Recent vitamin D podcast was extremely helpful; relevant and succinct. As a experienced CV nurse who religiously followed the AHA without question(problem #1!), Dr. Davis gave me confidence and evidence to question what I had always preached. We are on Wheat Belly program and a member of Dr. Davis i finite health inner circle. Thank you Dr. Davis for going against the grain and helping us!

The yogurt

I’ve been making the many yogurt recipes and if that’s all I learned from Dr Davis, that would be enough! There are so many easily understandable suggestions to follow and I’ve been constantly learning more. I feel at 40+ years old better than I have in my whole life. My gut health is incredible.

Cured my Fibromyalgia

I am a fan of this podcast, Dr. Davis is one of the most credible voices out there. And his insights probably saved me years of misery! When I switched to a LCHF diet, I also started with Dr. Davis’ SIBO yogurt. SIBO yogurt was instrumental in curing my fibromyalgia. I feel amazing after suffering so long.

Defiant Health is brilliant

This podcast is packed full of information to help you get your health back on track and avoid medication. So grateful to Dr Davis for defying bigpharma His wheat belly diet and SIBO yogurt work.
Time to remodel

The VLDL episode of 3/30/23 was amazing.

I have listened to this cholesterol centered episode three times now. There is an unbelievable amount of information packed into its 36 min length. And I have a medical background. For those not familiar with the terminology, perhaps there is a transcript available. For anyone with interest in this subject (we all should), it’s absolutely worth the time to understand this. Keep the episodes coming! Thanks.

Please do an episode on 60 Minutes Obesity story!!!!

Please keep doing more! Love each episode and they are so helpful to keep on track! I would love to hear more about Undoctored and what to say when people can’t believe I don’t do useless and dangerous interventions/procedures that healthcare labels “prevention”. Please do an episode on the side effects of statins, colonoscopies, mammograms, etc. Also, please interview people about cooking ideas, restaurant ordering tips, etc. Just more helpful tips to eat healthy and avoid accidental exposures. Also, love the yogurts! Thank you 😊.

Motivational - Helpful - Fascinating

Really appreciate the consistent messaging and emphasis of benefits. So helpful for staying on track. Between the podcasts, the books, the website, the FB page, and the webinars, there’s a surplus of info and it’s all very helpful. Thanks, Doc.

Great podcast!

The last episode Big butt or big gut was so good!! Love the blood test maker recommendations and the simple plan of losing visceral fat. I always love your podcast but this was one I can’t to share with some family and friends. Such good info put simply and actionably

Very informal

I first listened to Dr. Davis talk was from an interview of him. In that interview he talked about the yogurts he tried and the effects of those yogurt. I watched/listened to that interview over and over again, and I also bought his book “tThe Super Gut”. Thanks Dr. Davis for the information you provided in your podcast.

Just what I needed

Thanks so much on this episode about SIBO- just what I needed. Reading Super Gut, now. Thank you Dr. Davis!

I’m off my biologics !!!

Since I read Undoctored and Wheat Belly and now this podcast, I’ve lost 32lbs in 3 months and no longer have psoriatic arthritis. No more injecting a dangerous immune suppressing drug Humira which I’ve done for 12 years. My rheumatologist is stunned but has not asked me what I’ve done. He probably thinks I’m one of the lucky ones. I recommend all dr Davis’s books and this podcast. Real wealth is HEALTH!
