About this product

Product Information

I read this book... it worked. My autoimmune disease is gone and I'm 37 pounds lighter in my pleather. -Kelly Clarkson Most of us have heard of gluten-a protein found in wheat that causes widespread inflammation in the body. Americans spend billions of dollars on gluten-free diets in an effort to protect their health. But what if we've been missing the root of the problem In The Plant Paradox, renowned cardiologist Dr. Steven Gundry reveals that gluten is just one variety of a common, and highly toxic, plant-based protein called lectin. Lectins are found not only in grains like wheat but also in the gluten-free foods most of us commonly regard as healthy, including many fruits, vegetables, nuts, beans, and conventional dairy products. These proteins, which are found in the seeds, grains, skins, rinds, and leaves of plants, are designed by nature to protect them from predators (including humans). Once ingested, they incite a kind of chemical warfare in our bodies, causing inflammatory reactions that can lead to weight gain and serious health conditions. At his waitlist-only clinics in California, Dr. Gundry has successfully treated tens of thousands of patients suffering from autoimmune disorders, diabetes, leaky gut syndrome, heart disease, and neurodegenerative diseases with a protocol that detoxes the cells, repairs the gut, and nourishes the body. Now, in The Plant Paradox, he shares this clinically proven program with readers around the world. The simple (and daunting) fact is, lectins are everywhere. Thankfully, Dr. Gundry offers simple hacks we easily can employ to avoid them, including: Peel your veggies. Most of the lectins are contained in the skin and seeds of plants; simply peeling and de-seeding vegetables (like tomatoes and peppers) reduces their lectin content. Shop for fruit in season. Fruit contain fewer lectins when ripe, so eating apples, berries, and other lectin-containing fruits at the peak of ripeness helps minimize your lectin consumption. Swap your brown rice for white. Whole grains and seeds with hard outer coatings are designed by nature to cause digestive distress-and are full of lectins. With a full list of lectin-containing foods and simple substitutes for each, a step-by-step detox and eating plan, and delicious lectin-free recipes, The Plant Paradox illuminates the hidden dangers lurking in your salad bowl-and shows you how to eat whole foods in a whole new way.

    LIFE

    This is the best health book I ever read in my entire life. Period. I have learnt much more in this book than all the healthy books put together. Compelling evidence. Based on research. This book has changed my life. I will find time to write to the author. A most read for everybody doing their best to stay healthy in this modern day of pollution and greedy food manufacturers.

    Another collectors book

    Another book on healthy diets, but seems well researched unique in it ideas. The whole book size could be reduced by two thirds if it didn't contain seemingly endless dribble of patients with one "miracle cure" after another.

  • I LOVE THIS BOOK!!!

    Easy to understand and makes lots of sense. I followed the plan and feel like a new person in the best possible way! Have bought copies for several friends too! So glad I came across this book after spending over 15 years trying different ways of eating to try and improve my health (and failing) I now understand why those types of so called ‘healthy’ eating plans didn’t work for me! Very happy and very healthy now!! Can’t wait for the new cookbook by same author coming out in March! Thank you Dr Gundry👍

  • Beyond excellent - a revolution - something for everyone.

    This is compelling and will hold something for everyone from the Olympic athlete, elderly cancer patient or struggling parent. Packed full of good quality science, straightforward explanations and tons of practical advice, guidance, tips and things to implement. I'll be buying more copies to give out. Thank you Dr Gundry!
