Management of the human microbiome is proving to be a powerful tool for health. But it is a critical factor for health that most healthcare providers and doctors do not get involved in. This makes new and exciting strategies to manage the individual microbiome a personal effort, one that people can manage without their doctors with potentially powerful results. Applied properly, management of the individual’s microbiome can increase skin thickness, accelerate healing, increase bone density, increase testosterone in males, and increase the hormone oxytocin, a phenomenon with a host of important health benefits that I shall discuss.
I shall further discuss how and why increased muscle is crucial for youth preservation and health and how some new concepts in cognitive exercise can decrease potential for cognitive decline and Alzheimer’s dementia, while even yielding improvements in abilities such as safe driving and reaction time.

There are also substantial followings on social media, including 300,000 followers on Facebook. More than a book, more than social media, the Wheat Belly phenomenon has proven to be a movement, growing over time and creating an audience eager for food solu-tions that are healthy, delicious, convenient and consistent with the Wheat Belly message.
Most recently, Dr. Davis’ new book, Undoctored: Why Health Care Has Failed You and How You Can Become Smarter Than Your Doctor has been released. This new book takes the lessons learned through the worldwide Wheat Belly experience and adds new concepts including how to harness the emerging power of crowd-sourced wisdom and new technological health tools. We are living in the dawn of an age when the health consumer can accomplish an astounding amount in regaining health on their own-without the doctor or healthcare system.
