William Davis, MD

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"

"Why do I have food intolerances?

Defiant Health Radio with Dr. William Davis ·

2026/04/24

Food intolerances are growing and more and more people are unable to eat FODMAPs-containing foods, histamine-containing foods, nightshades, legumes, fructose-containing foods and numerous others, sometimes reduced to consuming only a handful of "safe" foods. Why is this happening, something that was virtually unknown only a generation or two ago? Much of it is due to the excessive proliferation of Proteobacteria species in your gut. But it's not just about food intolerances, as these i...

Why Life is Better Without Wheat

Defiant Health Radio with Dr. William Davis ·

2026/04/15

If you are given the kindergarten version of a healthy diet, well, you can expect mediocre results at best, disastrous results at worst. Why not graduate to a higher level of dietary understanding? But don't count on obtaining such insights from conventional sources. Here are some cold, hard facts about the consumption of wheat and grains that everyone should be aware of.

Defiant Health Radio with Dr. William Davis ·

2026/04/07

They are somewhat more advanced concepts, but the microbial phenomena of endotoxemia and translocation are proving to be critical processes in initiating or worsening a long list of human health conditions. Because most mainstream doctors have abdicated their responsibility in providing advice to maintaining or regaining health, it is up to YOU to understand these important concepts. Here is a basic discussion to help you understand the importance of these fundamental microbiome concep...

What is gluten and why you should avoid it

Defiant Health Radio with Dr. William Davis ·

2026/03/29

Despite my Wheat Belly series of books having been read by millions of people in nearly 40 countries, many people still think that a grain-based diet is healthy. Many also confuse this message with being "gluten-free." Let's think about this issue more clearly so that you understand the power you have in your hands to assume control over health and weight by being smarter and better informed than the misguided masses following dietary guidelines or are victims of an exploitative food industr...

Why is grain elimination good for oral health?

Defiant Health Radio with Dr. William Davis ·

2026/03/16

Scientific insights into the oral microbiome are yielding many new lessons for dental health: mouthwashes are actually dangerous, fluoridated drinking water does not prevent cavities, some toothpastes contain harmful additives. But the most important factor for dental health is often neglected: the role of eliminating grains. The amylopectin A of grains is a major factor in degrading dental health and the oral microbiome.

Does dementia start in the mouth?

Defiant Health Radio with Dr. William Davis ·

2026/03/03

A number of studies in which the brain tissue of people who have died of dementia have revealed the presence of microbial species such as Porphyromonas gingivalis, Fusobacterium nucleatum, and Tannerella forsythia--all oral microbes. This is an example of translocation, i.e., the migration of microbes from one body site to another. But does this cause or accelerate dementia? This remains an unsettled issue. However, if you have had an oral microbiome test and you have one or more of th...

It's Not Yogurt

Defiant Health Radio with Dr. William Davis ·

2026/02/23

We've been fermenting HUMAN-SOURCED microbes to generate very high microbial counts and obtain specific health benefits. The end-result looks and smells sort of like conventional yogurt, but it is NOT yogurt. (I called it "yogurt" for lack of a better term.) It's my way of generating high counts of important microbes that most people have lost due to antibiotics and other factors. You can enjoy this unique "yogurt" with some blueberries, nuts, or your choice of natural sweetener. Suppor...

Why You Should NOT Measure Apoprotein B

Defiant Health Radio with Dr. William Davis ·

2026/02/21

Apoprotein B provides a virtual count of the lipoprotein particles in the bloodstream that cause coronary heart disease. It is often held up as superior to the widely used LDL cholesterol value. Is this true? It is true, but it does not mean that measuring apoprotein B tells you much about health. Compare this to the enormous amount of insight provided by measuring the REAL cause of heart disease: small LDL particles that gives you an entire universe of insight into your overall health, as w...

What's all this about making "yogurt"?

Defiant Health Radio with Dr. William Davis ·

2026/02/12

Why has yogurt making gone viral? First of all, it's NOT yogurt. It looks and smells like yogurt. By FDA regulations, something called yogurt must be fermented with traditional yogurt-making microbes Lactobacillus bulgaricus and Streptococcus thermophilus. That's NOT what we are doing. Instead, we are fermenting human microbes, i.e., microbes that are adapted to the human body and provide substantial benefits but have been lost by most people because of their susceptibility to common antib...

Are microplastics the newest cardiovascular risk factor?

Defiant Health Radio with Dr. William Davis ·

2026/02/05

The evidence is growing that suggest that microplastics, or more specifically smaller nanoplastics, are triggers for atherosclerotic disease with increased risk for heart attack, stroke, and death. While your doctor wastes your time and money obsessing about cholesterol and statin drugs that should have been discarded decades ago, you need to address the REAL factors that cause heart disease. Add nanoplastics to that list. Thankfully, you can begin to make an impact on your ingestion o...

Defiant Health Radio with Dr. William Davis ·

2026/01/29

Abdominal visceral fat, i.e., fat within the abdominal cavity that surrounds abdominal organs, is unique and the source of so many common health problems. While people who are overweight with a protuberant abdomen almost always have an excess of abdomen visceral fat, it can also occur with a flat abdomen. You can reduce and track the amount of abdominal visceral fat with home bioimpedance devices. Here are some unconventional but effective ways to reduce/minimize this form of fat while...

The Crime Called Type 2 Diabetes

Defiant Health Radio with Dr. William Davis ·

2026/01/24

The crime is not having type 2 diabetes. The crime is that conventional forces in healthcare essentially turn a blind eye to all the ways available to NOT be a type 2 diabetic. Pharmaceutical executives throw lavish parties to celebrate the huge revenues that derive from diabetes drugs that now include the awful GLP-1 agonists, while almost no one in healthcare shows people how to not be diabetic--THAT's the crime.

How long to consume SIBO Yogurt?

2026/01/21

SIBO (small intestinal bacterial overgrowth) is now epidemic in the U.S., affecting around 50% of the population. It is responsible for an impressive range of health conditions from obesity, to type 2 diabetes, to irritable bowel syndrome, to fibromyalgia and numerous others. We have been addressing SIBO with a collection of microbes that I call "SIBO Yogurt," a collection of human-sourced microbes that colonize the small intestine and produce natural antibiotics effective in killing the spec...

2026/01/20

There's one truly helpful value on a standard cholesterol panel: triglycerides. Ironically, it's also the value most likely to be ignored or mismanaged because the doctor wastes your time by focusing on the useless total and LDL cholesterol values, having been brainwashed by the flawed science and pharmaceutical marketing. Here is WHY triglycerides are so important, HOW you can reduce your value to the very important level of 60 mg/dl or less without resorting to the use of any pharmac...

What do I mean by "Super Body"?

Defiant Health Radio with Dr. William Davis ·

2026/01/13

It's not about having the build of a bodybuilder, nor 6-pack abs, or bulging biceps. It's about having optimal metabolic health that stacks the odds in favor of being free of heart disease, risk for cognitive impairment, cancer, loss of independence and other health conditions. We therefore work to reduce or minimize abdominal visceral fat while restoring youthful musculature. We do so starting with unique methods to restore a healthy gastrointestinal microbiome, then restore other fac...

2026/01/09

My 30+ years of involvement with CT heart scans and coronary calcium scores has yielded many important lessons on how to halt, then reverse, the accumulation of coronary atherosclerotic plaque and thereby risk for heart attack, need for heart procedures, and sudden cardiac death. Here, I discuss the crucial importance of vitamin D and how, by addressing this issue, it was the first time I saw actual reductions in coronary calcium scores.

Amylopectin A: Demon Carbohydrate

Defiant Health Radio with Dr. William Davis ·

2026/01/04

Amylopectin A is the branching carbohydrate unique to wheat and grains that sends blood sugar through the roof, increases liver production of triglycerides, contributes to risk for heart disease, and accelerates many of the phenomena of aging. Yet we are essentially advised to include sources of this demon carbohydrate in our daily diets. You need to be informed and recognized that so much of what your are told in diet and health is crafted for profit, not your benefit. **Discla...

Why Losing Weight the Wrong Way Can Be Dangerous

Defiant Health Radio with Dr. William Davis ·

2026/01/03

If you lose weight by reducing calories--a diet, bariatric procedure, or pharmaceutical like a GLP-1 agonist--you will indeed lose weight at first. But long-term, unhealthy changes in health will develop: eventual weight regain, increased risk for heart disease, type 2 diabetes, dementia, frailty. And thare are now sufficient data to tell us that you also cut your life short by several years. The key: NEVER engage in any of these methods. If you have, there are steps you can take to co...
