Conventional health care is no longer working in your favor-but thankfully, Dr. Davis is.

In his New York Times bestseller Wheat Belly, Dr. William Davis changed the lives of millions of people by teaching them to remove grains from their diets to reverse years of chronic health damage. In Undoctored, he goes beyond cutting grains to help you take charge of your own health. This groundbreaking expose reveals how millions of people are given dietary recommendations crafted by big business, are prescribed unnecessary medications, and undergo unwarranted procedures to feed revenue-hungry healthcare systems.

With Undoctored, the code to health care has been cracked--Dr. Davis will help you create a comprehensive program to reduce, reverse, and cure hundreds of common health conditions and break your dependence on prescription drugs. By applying simple strategies while harnessing the collective wisdom of new online technologies, you can break free of a healthcare industry that puts profits over health.

Undoctored is the spark of a new movement in health that places the individual, not the doctor, at the center. His plan contains features like: A step-by-step guide to eliminating prescription medications

Tips on how to distinguish good medical advice from bad42 recipes to guide you through the revolutionary 6-week program

Undoctored gives you all the tools you need to manage your own health and sidestep the misguided motives of a profit-driven medical system.

Quotes

    are participating in a global experience of awareness and information that follows the rules of a new age, empowering you to reject the notion that the doctor is in charge—you are in charge

    Dr. Benjamin Rush, the namesake of Rush University in Chicago, summed up attitudes of doctors toward patients: “The obedience of a patient to the prescriptions of his physicians should be prompt, strict, and universal.” In other words, you are expected to respond, “Yes, doctor, anything you say” in any and every situation, from hemorrhoidectomy to heart transplantation, since it’s assumed that you don’t know the difference between a hippocampus and an amphibious, mud-wallowing creature from Africa.
    This attitude led doctors to have complete disregard for the rights of patients.

    Examples of people not wanting to know more is an example of learned helplessness: passive acceptance of a situation in which circumstances are perceived to be beyond control. It is a behavior learned not just in health care but also in situations such as incarceration, torture, and depression. Psychologist Dr. Martin Seligman pioneered studies of this effect at the University of Pennsylvania. Dogs given unavoidable electrical shocks stopped looking for escape even when they were subsequently provided an escape route from the shocks. College students given challenging mental tasks interrupted by a loud noise could learn to turn off the noise by pulling a lever, but if the lever had no effect at first, they failed to retry and exert control in future experiments because of their prior experience of helplessness. They, like the dogs, learned to be helpless.3
