Product ReviewsThe Plant Paradox Ser.: The Plant Paradox : The Hidden Dangers in Healthy Foods That Cause Disease and Weight Gain by Gundry Steven R. (2017, Hardcover)

Read this book!!!

If you ever wondered what is going on with your health, and the decline in the health of the Nation, READ THIS BOOK!!! It totally BLEW ME AWAY!!! According to the author, plants have natural defenses that are there to make the predator (us) sick. By consuming them, that is what we do-GET SICK, with everything from arthritis to cancer, to immune system disease, etc. Can't say enough about what is in this book. Everyone I have lent it to also says the same thing. Does it work? Well I will let you know in a while, but I can say I have seen multiple positive changes already that leads me to believe that it is real. Read full review...

Will try some, not all, of the advice

There may be some great advice in this book if you can get any benefit from using some, not all, of the information. As a routine diet guideline it is so restrictive that I’d be miserable trying to adhere. We’ll try some of the suggestions and determine if they help. For example, I love eating peanuts but will switch to almonds. The book gives good and logical explanations for what is suggested. Just not sure I’m ready for this level of change.Read full review...

Keeps your attention, stll reading through it.

I have only just begun to read it. It does make you want to read more....makes some very interesting points about food groups and how 'we eat'. The price is excellent! I have know about the book but didn't put much serious thought until I purchased some sourdough bread from a person who highly recommends the book (sells it in his store). He apparently had some health issues and read the book, liked to give 'more personal' gifts and turned his 'discovery' effort on making bread and now a little business. The bread really good by the way! I know about Dr. Gundry and his methods make sense, have tried a few of his 'suggestions' but that often finds the 'zeal' lessens. But hoping to find some good things about food, preparation and following some recipes as my health has been varying lately and I am sure it is my 'diet'!!!Read full review...

Not for the faint at heart

This book is for people who are truly serious about changing their eating lifestyle. Look at the credentials of who wrote it. I’m presently 71 years old, not on a bunch of medications, not in the slightest way overweight and still feel I could do better. I want what years I have left to be productive and still have a good energy level. I wish I would have had a book like this when I was much younger. Some parts may be boring to some but stick with it. Especially if you are younger and have health problems like what this book discusses. So many of the prescribed drugs do more harm than good.Read full review...

This is the book that saved my life.

This is the ultimate book when it comes to your health. Dr. Gundry has explained how the foods we eat are damaging our bodies and has a language that is very easy to understand. Make no mistake. This is a change of lifestyle. If you read it and say "I can't do that" then you're not hurting bad enough. When you hit rock bottom, you'll do any thing to fix it. This is the book to do it.

Healthy for Life

Dr. Gundry has had a lot of experience in helping people. I am healthy and need to stay that way as I am alone, so I have begun trying to follow his advice. There is a lot to learn and to study. Also, there are a lot of new things to figure out in a healthy diet, but that has been a goal of mine for over forty years, so I am grateful to Dr. Gundry for sharing what he has discovered.Read full review...

THE PLANT Paradox

I bought Dr Gundry first book called DIET EVOLUTION AND IT ALSO WAS GR8! It was the Evolution man eating from Stone Age up to modern times! The stories are real and not to be forgotten. Each book ranges in 300 pages or more so your going to get your money's worth. I lost 20 pounds but I bought the tools to do it but Dr Gundry gave me the knowledge. Being a College Graduate the science Dr Gundry presents is real. Once I got the gut system right down below I NEVER craved sweets (It was a miracle) also I built up my immune system after antibiotics destroyed it. Dr Gundry is right on! NO WAY YOU CAN HAVE MY BOOKS BECAUSE THEY ARE KEEPERS! Want to lose weight stop eating bread. All Bread raises my triglycerides (sugar you burn or store! I AM A REAL REAL BELIEVER IN DR GUNDRYS BOOKS! You will too!Read full review...
