According to the USDA, wheat ranks third after corn and soybeans with regard to its acreage, production, and farm receipts and is grown on roughly 37 million acres. Since its peak in 1981, wheat is now declining in acreage, down some 45 million acres which is perhaps the good news. Typically 1,000 acres in size, the average wheat farm is highly industrialized; as of 2020, some 150 different pesticides and herbicides were commonly sprayed on winter and spring wheat. Given the industrial scale of corn, soy, wheat, and cotton crops, heavy chemical usage of pesticides, herbicides, and fungicides has become business as usual. Our guest in this show from 2023, Dr. William Davis, Cardiologist and Author of the books Wheat Belly, Undoctored, and Super Gut [https://drdavisinfinitehealth.com/about/], exposes the problem with our wheat addiction and has connected the dots between gut health and common modern ailments and complaints. He observed over 80% of the people in his cardiology medical practice were pre-diabetic or diabetic. In an effort to reduce blood sugars, he had patients remove all wheat products from their diet based on the simple fact that foods made of wheat flour raise blood sugar higher than nearly all other foods. In 1958, approximately 1.6 million people were diagnosed with diabetes; that figure has skyrocketed now to 36 million people in 2023. It is estimated that roughly 75% of the population suffers from either insulin resistance, pre-diabetes or diabetes. The source of diabetes can often be traced back to the opioid-like addictive qualities of wheat and grains. Inflammation, obesity, celiac disease, heart disease, insulin resistance, cataracts, accelerated aging, skin issues, and neurodegenerative diseases constitute just some of the myriad problems that can arise from continued consumption of modern wheat and the supposed "healthy whole grains" that we've been encouraged to eat for a balanced diet. Dr. Davis shares how eliminating wheat and restoring our gut microbiomes are the means by which we might reclaim our personal, collective and ecosystem health.

Equip Foods Protein (grass-fed beef isolate, no seed oils, third-party tested) Code: BENAZADI - https://bit.ly/49xXaMq Keto Flex Revised by Ben Azadi (pre-order now, releases July 21st, includes exclusive bonus chapters as a downloadable PDF): https://bit.ly/4wKG1sM In this episode, Ben Azadi reveals the five foods he eliminated that ended his chronic cravings and led to losing 19 pounds in 30 days. The root issue is not willpower. It's hormones and inflammation. A 2019 NIH study by Kevin Hall had participants eating ultra-processed vs. whole foods at matched calories. On the ultra-processed diet, they ate 500 extra calories per day without realizing it. The food was driving the overconsumption, not a lack of discipline. The five foods to remove: Liquid sugar. Sodas, juices, sports drinks, and flavored coffee drinks don't register as fullness. The Harvard Nurses' Health Study found adding one sugary drink per day led to 358 extra calories consumed daily. Swap for black coffee, plain tea, or sparkling water. Ultra-processed breads and tortillas. Stripped of nutrition and engineered for shelf life, modern bread spikes blood sugar as much as a Snickers bar according to Dr. William Davis. Opt for fermented sourdough or sprouted grain, or remove bread entirely for 30 days. Boxed pastas and processed comfort foods. Hyper-palatable combinations of salt, sugar, fat, and starch that overstimulate the brain's reward centers while leaving the body nutritionally depleted. A follow-up to Hall's study found people eating these foods consumed up to 1,000 extra calories per day. Seed oil-laden dressings, sauces, and condiments. Soybean, canola, corn, sunflower, and related oils produce carcinogenic aldehydes during processing and are in roughly 80% of the food supply. Replace with avocado oil, extra virgin olive oil, grass-fed butter, ghee, coconut oil, beef tallow, or duck fat. Look for seed oil-free brands like Primal Kitchen and Chosen Foods. Alcohol. A 1992 New England Journal of Medicine study found moderate alcohol consumption drops fat oxidation by 70% for hours. The liver prioritizes clearing alcohol above all else, including fat burning, while simultaneously increasing appetite and lowering the brain's stop-eating signals.

In this episode, Jeff Mains sits down with William Davis — leadership expert, speaker, mentor, and author with four decades of senior leadership experience across corporate, academic, military, and government environments. William unpacks the growing leadership crisis facing organizations today (78% of Americans say corporate America has a leadership problem), and why the $500+ billion spent annually on leadership development isn't moving the needle.The conversation explores the critical difference between being a boss, a manager, and a true leader — and why the companies winning the talent war are the ones investing in growth, trust, and human connection. William shares practical frameworks for explaining the "why" behind the work, building genuine relationships with your team, and making the mindset shift from doer to leader. If you're a SaaS founder trying to reduce turnover, increase engagement, and build a company people actually want to stay at, this episode is essential listening.Key Takeaways[0:24] — Jeff sets the stage: the difference between a boss and a leader is whether your team is quietly updating their LinkedIn profiles.[3:16] — William explains what drove him to dedicate his final career chapter to teaching leadership: a 2023 World Economic Forum report declaring a global leadership crisis, followed by a US News/Harris Poll showing 78% of Americans believe corporate America has a leadership problem.[5:53] — The clearest signal leadership is broken? Retention. People aren't leaving companies — they're leaving their managers.[7:07] — William's antidote to the job-hopping generation: explain the why behind every project. When people understand the purpose, they invest themselves creatively — and feel pride in the outcome.[9:20] — The boss vs. manager vs. leader distinction: managers get work from A to Z; leaders transcend self-interest and focus on building the next generation.[11:54] — True leadership in practice means giving your team the skeletal outline of where they want to go, then helping fill in the framework — even when that means redirecting them toward a better path.[14:45] — How to balance people development with number pressure: structure work so people can learn and deliver simultaneously. When you can't, give them space to re-energize — don't just drive them into the ground.[17:54] — Replacing a person costs ~50% more than their salary by the time you cover lost productivity, recruiting, and the new hire's learning curve.[22:26] — The biggest mindset shift for new leaders: your team is not your competition. Their success is your success. Stop micromanaging; start guiding.[27:25] — Why leaders who empower their teams often get questioned by executives above them: "What are YOU doing?" William's answer: "I'm leading my team. That IS my full-time job."[28:13] — "Leadership is deceptively simple. But simple doesn't mean easy — because you're dealing with people, and people are complex."[23:52] — The why is multi-tiered: it makes people feel trusted, invested, creative, and ultimately proud of their contribution.[33:58] — Why $566 billion in leadership training isn't fixing the crisis: programs focus on task management, not relationship-building. Leadership will always be about humans first.[38:15] — Building camaraderie remotely: William's team traveled 75% of the time and had dinner together every night — talking about family, kids, and vacations, not work. The result was next-level team cohesion.[40:35] — The Harvard adult development study data: having a best friend at work doesn't just help you — it boosts productivity across the people around you.[46:38] — What to do right now if you realize you've been managing instead of leading: find someone you trust and ask them to give you an honest outside perspective — then actually listen without getting defensive.[42:49] — Story of empathy in action: a high-performing team member started coming in late. Instead of disciplining her, William took her for coffee and discovered her mother was on hospice. He sent her home to work remotely until the situation resolved. Retention, loyalty, and culture all strengthened.[47:53] — The one leadership principle never to compromise on: always tell the truth. The first time you fudge it, you lose credibility — and credibility, once lost, is nearly impossible to recover.Tweetable Quotes"People don't leave companies. They leave their bosses, their managers, their leaders. That's a true statement." — William Davis"Leadership is deceptively simple. But simple doesn't mean easy — because you're dealing with people, and people are complex." — William Davis"When your team has success, that is a reflection on you. And in my opinion, it's a greater reflection than when you were doing the work yourself." — William Davis"Your team is not your competition. They are the greatest complement to your abilities as a leader." — William Davis"The why is a multi-tiered tool that helps people feel trusted, feel invested, feel creative — and at the end of the day, feel like they contributed to the success." — William Davis"Hire fast, fire fast — that's not leadership. That's ignorance and an inhuman way of dealing with people." — William Davis"I'm leading my team. That's my full-time job." — William Davis"The first time you're caught fudging the truth, you're going to lose credibility with your team. And once you lose it, the ability to get it back is almost impossible." — William DavisSaaS Leadership Lessons1. Explain the Why — Every Time Task-driven teams execute. Purpose-driven teams innovate. When your engineers, sales reps, and CS leads understand why a project matters — not just what they're building — they invest creativity, take ownership, and feel pride in the outcome. Make "here's why we're doing this" a non-negotiable part of every sprint kickoff and all-hands.2. Stop Micromanaging; Start Guiding The hardest shift for technical founders is letting go of the doing. When you moved from IC to founder/leader, your job changed — even if no one told you. Your team reads your micromanagement as a trust deficit, and it drives your best people out the door. Replace "let me show you" with "what are you thinking?" and give them the space to surprise you.3. Your Team's Success Is Your Score Card As a leader, the scoreboard isn't your personal output — it's your team's growth trajectory. If your A-players are getting better, shipping more, and staying longer, you're winning. Reframe your identity: you're not the best engineer or the best seller anymore. You're the coach. Tom Landry said it best: "The job of a football coach is to make men do what they don't want to do, in order to become what they've always wanted to be."4. Retention Is a Leadership KPI Replacing an employee costs roughly 50% more than their annual salary when you factor in lost productivity, recruitment, and ramp time. Every resignation is a data point about your leadership culture, not just the job market. Track retention with the same rigor you track ARR and churn — because they're connected.5. Relationships Are Not Soft — They're Strategic The Harvard adult development study shows that having a best friend at work correlates directly with engagement and productivity — not just for that person, but for the people around them. Building genuine relationships with your team (knowing their families, caring about their lives outside work) isn't a distraction from results. It is the result. It's what creates the psychological safety that allows people to raise problems early, collaborate honestly, and stay through hard stretches.6. Honesty Is the Foundation Everything Else Rests On You can be empathetic, visionary, and brilliant at developing people — but if your team catches you spinning the truth, even once, you've triggered a credibility collapse that's nearly impossible to reverse. Some will leave. Some will disengage. All of them will trust you less. Be transparent even when the news is bad. Frame it with a path forward. That's what leaders do.Guest Resourceswilliamcharlesdavis64@gmail.comhttps://www.williamcdavis.net/https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61573023334183https://www.linkedin.com/in/williamcharlesdavis/https://www.instagram.com/williamcharlesdavis64/Episode SponsorThe Futureproof Series - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLfkXKUPZ5xuOqMPR7_gzGybncTtavyR1NThe Captain's KeysSmall Fish, Big Pond – https://smallfishbigpond.com/ Use the promo code ‘SaaSFuel'Champion...

Dr. David Friedman and Dr. William Davis explore how today's surge in chronic illness—from obesity to autoimmune disease—may trace back to a hidden culprit: the gut. They argue that modern diets, toxins, and antibiotics have quietly damaged our microbiome, while popular weight-loss trends may do more harm than good. Their message is clear: real, lasting health comes from fixing the body at its roots, not chasing quick fixes. Follow him on social media!

Dr. William Davis is a board-certified cardiologist, microbiome researcher, and the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Wheat Belly and Super Gut. Today on the show we discuss: why chasing weight loss instead of fat loss is quietly wrecking people's health, how cutting calories and relying on GLP-1 drugs can lead to muscle loss and long-term metabolic damage, why visceral belly fat and fat stored in muscle drives insulin resistance and chronic disease, how a damaged gut microbiome and endotoxemia sabotage fat loss and accelerate aging, what actually works to lose abdominal fat while preserving muscle and much more.

Today, I am delighted to welcome Dr. William Davis, a cardiologist and New York Times bestselling author of the Wheat Belly series. He is also the author of Undoctored, Super Gut, and his latest book, Super Body. In our conversation, we dive into the toxic diet industry and how it profits from repeatedly delivering wrong messages. We explore physiological changes in body composition that contribute to poor metabolic health and inflammation, the dangers of ectopic fat, and the influence of our environment. Dr. Davis explains the weight loss Ponzi scheme and how muscle loss drives changes in body composition. We also unpack the gut-muscle axis, the role of the microbiome in muscle building, SIBO and treatment options, and examine the broader effects of oxytocin on body composition, touching on the benefits of replacing lost biological compounds, like collagen and hyaluronic acid, the impact of Max, the microbiota, and accessible carbs, along with practical takeaways to support healthier living and better body composition. This conversation with Dr. Will Davis is incredibly insightful, and I look forward to having him back to discuss the female and vaginal microbiomes. IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN: The specific probiotic strain that influenced body composition in a clinical trial The benefits of fiber for your metabolism and fat distribution The role of collagen and hyaluronic acid in joint, skin, and vascular health How animal-based fibers affect the microbiome differently from plant fibers The value of fermented foods for cultivating beneficial gut microbes The long-term risks of restrictive diets How declining estrogen alters immune function in women The lasting impact of antibiotics and past treatments on gut microbiota How to prepare your gut for a thriving microbial ecosystem The surprising effects of foundational probiotic interventions on mood and social behavior Connect with Cynthia Thurlow Follow on X, Instagram & LinkedIn Check out Cynthia's website Submit your questions to support@cynthiathurlow.com Connect with Dr. William Davis On his website YouTube Blog Defiant Health (Podcast) Books
