SynopsisFrom the author of the New York Times bestseller The Plant Paradox comes a groundbreaking plan for living a long, healthy, happy life.From the moment we are born, our cells begin to age. But aging does not have to mean decline. World-renowned surgeon Dr. Steven Gundry has been treating mature patients for most of his career. He knows that everyone thinks they want to live forever, until they hit middle age and witness the suffering of their parents and even their peers. So how do we solve the paradox of wanting to live to a ripe old age--but enjoy the benefits of youth? This groundbreaking book holds the answer. Working with thousands of patients, Dr. Gundry has discovered that the "diseases of aging" we most fear are not simply a function of age; rather, they are a byproduct of the way we have lived over the decades. In The Longevity Paradox , he maps out a new approach to aging well--one that is based on supporting the health of the "oldest" parts of us: the microorganisms that live within our bodies. Our gut bugs--the bacteria that make up the microbiome--largely determine our health over the years. From diseases like cancer and Alzheimer's to common ailments like arthritis to our weight and the appearance of our skin, these bugs are in the driver's seat, controlling our quality of life as we age. The good news is, it's never too late to support these microbes and give them what they need to help them--and you--thrive. In The Longevity Paradox , Dr. Gundry outlines a nutrition and lifestyle plan to support gut health and live well for decades to come.

    A stronge (maybe longer) quality of life

    At times, the author gets a little long winded. His points made are very worthwhile to investigate further and make changes. Lots of opportunities to learn new healthy habits. So far, so good. Im convinced that a healthy gut is essential to good health and becomes even more essential as we age.

    My nutritionist says the lectin is cooked out so not to worry about it

    After buying this book, I had an appointment with my nutritionist who said that the lectin the author is so concerned about in food is cooked out so not to worry about it. But if you want, it's better to buy the Plant Paradox Cookbookn by the same author than this one. This is just more into the scientific side of why eat eating what food so can improve your health. The cookbook does go over the same but has more recipes and photos. I wish these books have a synopsis so we know what they're all about before buying rhem.
