Beauty is MORE than skin deep

“Crazy facial changes thanks to grain-free eating”!

That’s how Erin describes the change in facial appearance she experienced with her Wheat Belly wheat/grain-free eating lifestyle.

As with so many Wheat Belly transformations, notice the reduction in Erin’s edematous cheeks, the loss of redness on the cheeks. Wonderful changes, yes, but changes that reflect similar internal changes, particularly in gastrointestinal inflammation. Remember: gastrointestinal inflammation is NOT just gastrointestinal inflammation. It is the initial process that leads to acid reflux, vitamin B12 deficiency, changes in bowel flora, the triggering of autoimmune diseases, body-wide inflammation, even cancer and dementia.

Erin looks wonderful without the facial inflammation and edema of wheat and grains. But she has also experienced dramatic internal changes that parallel the wonderful external changes.
