Does losing weight and staying healthy feel like a battle? Well, it's really a war. Your enemies are your own genes, backed by millions of years of evolution, and the only way to win is to outsmart them. From the renowned surgeon and founder of Gundry MD, this revolutionary book shares the health secrets other doctors won't tell you:

Why plants are "good" for you because they're "bad" for you, and meat is "bad" because it's "good" for you
Why plateauing on this diet is actually a sign that you're on the right track
Why artificial sweeteners have the same effects as sugar on your health and your waistline
Why taking antacids, statins, and drugs for high blood pressure and arthritis masks health issues instead of addressing them

Along with the meal planner, 70 delicious recipes, and inspirational stories, Dr. Gundry's easy-to-memorize tips will keep you healthy and on course.

Don't waste your time

Reviewed in the United States on March 7, 2018

Verified Purchase

I bought this book based on the author's reputation and experience. I'll save you 6+ hours of your time. Reduce sugar, increase vegetables, reduce meat, and incorporate an exercise program. Sound like anything you've heard before? Additionally, the first six chapters covers a genetic overview regarding diets that could be reduced to one chapter to save you the suspense. This book missed the mark and I see no innovative or new strategies presented. Eat your veggies, reduce sugar and meat, and work out. There you go.

Good luck figuring out what to eat

This is dated. After reading his new book Plant Paradox, this book contains lots of conflicting information due to his more recent research. Good luck figuring out what to eat.

Super red flags for me

Reviewed in the United States on March 21, 2017

Verified Purchase

I have been using Dr. Gundry's products for the past six weeks. I have found some limited results, and I think am willing to keep trying with the products I have. I am giving this review three stars because of Dr. Gundry's marketing techniques. These techniques have raised red flags to the point that I wonder if this isn't a scam and he is a QUACK. When I have ordered the products, the web site keeps trying to get me to order more and more. Certainly, it does not seem professional. Yesterday was the final straw.. I received a telephone call with a caller ID that was a local number. It was someone from Gundry's group trying to sell me more product. Super red flags for me!

I did not get better in his diet

Reviewed in the United States on May 5, 2017

I saw Dr. Gundry for 1.5 years, and 3 office visits. I did not get better in his diet, but continued putting on weight and feeling even more exhausted. He kept on blaming me for doing something wrong. However, after doing food sensitivity tests with another Dr., it turns our that the eggs and shellfish were a huge problems, and the diet made me sicker. I had health issues with my digestive system that Dr. Gundry never diagnosed, and the diet would not have fixed it. Also , I really needed thyroid medication, and he also did not see that, and kept on sending me home, with "eggs should be ok." Too much time spend suffering and feeling judged by him without getting better. Not a good diagnostic doc, nor compassionate or a good listener or any good for diagnosing gastrointestinal issues. It's important to find what diet works for a patient, instead of blaming the patient when it doesn't work. Very disappointing.

Find the same info elsewhere

Reviewed in the United States on October 1, 2017

I clicked on what apparently was some paid /sponsored 'health report' by this doctor appearing on the front page of Yahoo that headlines 'cut your cravings'. It is still playing in the background as I type this. This alleged Doctor is talking circles and circles and mentioning his famous clients (like Tony Robbins!) instead of just getting to the point of the article, which is the particular foods that are not good for you or impeding your weight loss goals. He'll tell us in just a minute. Wait, oh, let me talk about myself some more. This come-on vague sales pitch about how all the pearls of knowledge are just around the corner, he continues to talk about himself and show the same pics of himself over and over. His video is promising to share the secrets of a healthier diet without ever getting to it. This gets real old, real fast. The book is the same thing-- lots of filler without a lot of fact. The actual info he wants to share could fit on a page. I don't trust a source that has to be this cutesy and vague.

Just malarkey. I bought the book because in the video advertisement he tells you to avoid soy. I'm a vegetarian. I thought, "what else can I eat?". More than half the recipes contain soy. I guess the up side is I have a few more tofu recipes.

Living Proof

Reviewed in the United States on July 31, 2017

Verified Purchase

I lost over 80 lbs using this method, and I have kept it off for over 4 years now. Initiall it was tricky to let go of crappy snack food, but at first I lost a pound a day for over two weeks! Staying true to 'no sugar' and using nuts to keep my body from eating my muscles kept the weigh coming off steadily. My initial weight loss goal was 175 lbs and I ended up at 147 lbs and in total shock! (I started around 228)
You have to read the entire book before you start, it took me months to prepare to begin my lifestyle change. This plan is much easier to start in the late fall/winter time. The no fruit was hard at first, but I added berries and tomatoes back in as soon as I could. I still continue to not eat fruit for a period of time each winter. I started this after years of yo yo diets. But once I began eating this way, I could not go back to processed chemical food. I now consider myself a purist. I honestly maintain this lifestyle using a lot of trim healthy mama recipes now. They are (almost) in line with Dr Gundrys ideas, they are sugar/gluten free sisters from New Zealand.
In the world of epigenetics, Dr. Gundrys book is the best approach in the business. Cancer feeds on sugar, and this approach is a great way to rebuild your body as a fighter. Dr Gundry has personally answered many emails from me, and supported me using this with my Autistic son.
I truly hope to be the woman in the first chapter of his book. I look younger now than I did 10 years ago and I weight less than I did on high school. This book helped me become a smart food consumer.

what a fool I was to buy this book. First, I watched a video where he said to never, ever eat any soy! Then in his book, soy recipes all over the place. What a fraud.

... that my cholesterol level was too high and was recommended to take statins

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 18, 2017

Verified Purchase

I was told by my doctor that my cholesterol level was too high and was recommended to take statins. I asked my GP to give me six months to try to bring it down by other means and that is when I found this book. I have read it cover to cover, twice. Six months later following Dr Gundry's advice I have lowered my LDL enough to not need statins. Weight is down from 79 to 69 Kgs. I call that a result. (I do not recommend the Kindle version as is needs to be used as a reference and flicking to the apropriate page is hard on Kindle). I like the fact there is a thorough bibliography to back it up. If his principle works as it seems to, it is a useful tool to staying in good health. Very glad I found it.

The book was great help as I have regained my body back

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 27, 2018

Verified Purchase

I have been size 8-10 for most of my life. In my late 40s I started to struggle to keep weight piling even with "healthy eating".
The book was great help as I have regained my body back. And I would strongly recommend that you give it a try.
Avoid or reduce, Sugar, wheat/grains, potato, rice and you may use it in small quantity after 2 weeks.
You may eat greens, root vegetables, protein and berries freely.

Primer for The Plant Paradox.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 12, 2020

Verified Purchase

To understand the evolution of Dr Steven Gundry's worldview you must read this book. Lots of scribble in the second-hand copy I brought but interesting to see how he progressed from the standard low-fat/high carb orthodoxy to his high-fat (largely Omega 7 which he explains in the Longevity Paradox was based on questioning Ancel Key's housekeeper) high cruciferous veg low meat high fish recommendations - he terms it "vegaquarian". His recipes in this book are very spartan, lots of salads, but in The Plant Paradox series and The Longevity Paradox he gives lots of alternatives to hearty classics like Gnocchis and Pizza. The Living Well Without Lectins book by Claudia Curici is also great. Contains more supplement recommendations which is useful and a handy adjunct to his later series of books.

Such useful lectin free recipes. When u stop eating lectin , if u restart the symptoms come back with a vengeance. So these recipes are very useful. Plus the advice on limiting the amount of fruit eaten per day. This causes weight gain and fermentation in the gut. not good!
