The idea behind the book is intriguing and I'm going to try it for a few months.However, the book is PAINFUL to read. There are a few concepts that he covers over and over and over again using different levels of details and horrible examples. He compares your gut bacteria to a neighborhood, to animals, and other things that are too ridiculous to consider. It's like he explains everything at the lowest possible level but also at a highly scientific level. 5 different ways and all over the book. He is repeatedly being redundant again.The book needs to be about 3 chapters long, get to the point, and be done with it. Here it is:1. Lectins are bad. There are 7 deadly disruptors: antibiotics, NSAIDS, stomach acid blockers, artificial sweeteners, hormone disruptors, herbacides, and blue light. For details, see Dr. Gundry's website for "deadly-disruptors-plant-paradox".2. Avoid these things in your food by avoiding foods that naturally have lectin-producing parts. Find out what your food ate. Veggies need to be non-GMO, organic, chemical-free. Basically, go to the farmer's market. Organic isn't good enough. Fish need to be wild-caught and fresh. Chicken needs to be pastured, organic, and non GMO. Organic meat can still be fed corn and grains, which are bad for you. Do the best you can with your location and budget. Avoid beef and pork for a while, then eventually get well-sourced clean-eating animals. Avoid sugar, including fruit. Sugar makes you fat. For a list of "yes" and "no" foods, see Dr. Gundry's website for "plant-paradox-shopping-list".3. Avoid these things in household items. Don't touch thermal receipts. Don't take the medicine listed above. Don't use plastic wrap or Ziploc bags. You already knew not to use Teflon, BPA plastics, or hand sanitizers with triclosan. No sunscreens or deodorant with parabens or aluminum. (He doesn't mention that it's smelly and gorss for about 3 weeks when you switch from aluminum/paraben based deodorants.) Avoid makeup with the same.There are some meal plans in the book that basically result in eating lettuce (the taste of sadness) 5 times a day for the first 3 days. (Uh - NO!) Then there are recipes to help you "cheat" the plan by making fake muffins and pancakes.Seriously, just eat eggs and sweet potatoes for breakfast. Eat chicken and veggies for lunch. Eat some nuts or avocado for a snack. Eat some fish and veggies for dinner. Feel better.
As a disciple of Denis Burkitt and a student of nutrition for nearly 5 decades, I was anxious to learn more about lectins. Unfortunately, Dr. Gundry's book was disappointing, as he spent too much time on self-promotion and anecdote. He is so focused on his unproven theory that lectins create illness, he omits the vast research suggesting that lectins do many good things, including preventing human cancers. He acknowledges that our gut bacteria are critical for health, but encourages us to eliminate cereal fiber and whole grains from our diet, because the bran fiber contain lectins. The fiber in whole grain cereals is what our bacteria digest (ferment) and thrive on - numerous studies have confirmed that cereal fiber intake is closely correlated with health and longevity. Read Davis's WHEAT BELLY to learn how today's hybridized wheat FLOUR is so much less healthful than it's ancient forbears. But he, too, made the mistake of discarding the wheat bran along with the unhealthful flour, for the bran of the wheat is one of nature's gifts. Organic wheat bran, along with oat bran and psyllium husks provide the basis for a supplement that anyone can add to their diet, and is an inexpensive DIY approach to better health and longevity. Read about Denis Burkitt, who predicted 60 years ago that removing fiber from whole wheat bread would create a nutritional catastrophe. Slowly putting cereal fiber back in your diet will bring you and your gut bacteria vigorous health.
I was at an impasse. For a year and a half, I had been going to a gym working through an elliptical machine and 14 other resistance training machines to get in shape and lose weight. Stronger? Yes. Core strengthened, I stand taller and have much better upper body strength. But as to weight loss -- no way. Exercise is valuable to your health but likely will not lead to significant weight loss unless you are grossly overweight. For the past five years including my recent year and a half in the gym, at about 6 feet 2 inches tall, I hung around 192 pounds, varying from 190 to 195.Over the past 30 years I have suffered from Irritable Bowel Syndrome – with all its gory effects, and recently it seemed to be getting worse. Mind you, we eat very carefully in our house – small portions, little pasta, no junk food, no pizza, no fried chicken or fried food or any kind, no canned goods, no ice cream or big desserts, no beer, no sodas or diet sodas. Red wine every night. Still I was overweight and couldn’t make my “beer gut†go away. Whatever I tried just didn’t work. Argghhh!!On top of that I was obsessed with food, and particularly with a nice dinner. At lunch, I’d be thinking about what was for dinner. Growing up, in my family, dinner was always the big meal, and a social occasion. I liked the conviviality and opportunity to exchange news and views during a meal.Over a year ago, I had given up a Classic Coke at lunch every day. This produced a noticeable improvement in my blood sugar, insulin, and A1c over the year as my cardiologist (and I!) were recently pleased to note.Finally, in desperation, I gave up a conventional lunch of a sandwich and switched to just a cup of soup for lunch. Result over two months: a weight loss of about two pounds. What could I do, if anything, next?It was about a month ago that I heard a lecture about the importance of our microbiome and how connected its health was to our fundamental health. In performing more research, I discovered and read Dr. Raphael Kellman’s book “The Microbiome Diet, and also listened to a video of Dr. Terry Wahls’. Finally, I hit the jackpot by discovering on YouTube Dr. Steven R. Gundry’s videos. I believe I watched all 29 of them – some repeatedly. Then, on the day it came out I received Dr. Gundry’s new book “The Plant Paradoxâ€. I quickly read and yellow highlighted it. Then I read it again, finding things I had missed in my first reading. Then I even outlined the first half of the book to get a better top-down view of Dr. Gundry’s overall approach to his subject.What I found from reading Dr. Gundry’s book was that for years, despite the care with which I thought I selected my food I was eating all the wrong foods! Fifteen years ago, I gave up muffins and granola (mostly carbohydrates) for breakfast. I was so proud of myself for switching to one small piece of 7-grain toast with natural nutty peanut butter, a banana, and a glass of milk (in addition to coffee) for breakfast. I have enjoyed this breakfast for all those years only to discover from Dr. Gundry that the first four food items were foods that I shouldn’t be eating! Ditto for the BBQ-baked beans I had come to have with every dinner, not to mention the small helping each night of mustard potato salad that I had with my corn and grain-fed meat loaded with antibiotics! Ditto for all the Ibuprofen I had consumed over the years to quell back and foot pain.I am now a believer in Dr. Gundry’s diet and more important, the power of his scientifically documented medical knowledge and health recommendations. In his book, he tells you what foods to eat and what foods not to eat. But more important, he tells you the medical and scientific basis behind why to eat or not eat those foods.By Monday, May 7th, two days after my 75th birthday, I started Phase 1 of Dr. Gundry’s diet. On May 7th and 8th I sort of eased into his diet – starting with taking Dr. Gundry’s Vital Reds supplements. Let me tell you some results of following Dr. Gundry’s diet for just a short while. My starting weight May 7th AM was 189.4 pounds. On May 9th, I started in earnest his Phase 1 with his recommended purge and by following his advice rigorously. This morning, May 13th, I weighed 180.2 pounds – a loss of 9.2 pounds in six days! Finally, I had some positive and dramatic results. My goal over the next few months is to get to about 172 pounds, a weight that I was comfortable with for about 20 years a long time ago.In addition, even in this short amount of time, my IBS symptoms have lessened dramatically, my skin isn’t as dry, and I seem to be feeling pretty good! Let me tell you, the first few days aren’t easy. It is hard to change the way you think about food and eating. It’s hard to eat strange foods, no matter how good they are for you. Since most of Dr. Gundry’s food recommendations aren’t available at your local restaurants, you must prepare them at home. That’s a pain, probably until it becomes habit forming. It looks like my days of eating lunch out are dramatically curtailed. Yes, you pay more for organically grown foods, but you eat less of them, and you are not paying restaurants to serve it to you.Even after this short time on Dr. Gundry’s diet, I am learning to enjoy his recommended diet, especially his “Green Smoothiesâ€. I have had more avocados in the past week than I have had in my entire life. I find I like them a lot better mixed with additional foods like red onions, vinegar, and the like.Now, on Phase 2, I can eat meats again – if grass fed and grass finished. I can eat some of my favorite vegetables again. It’s only going to get easier from now on.I know so many people who are overweight and suffer from various autoimmune diseases. I’ve got to find a way to have them read “The Plant Paradox†and watch Dr. Gundry’s videos. Changing your complete diet is really a missionary sell and Dr. Gundry does a magnificent job of it.I will update this review every couple of months to keep you all appraised of my progress and the benefits to me of my new Dr. Gundry diet. In the meantime, do yourself and your family a huge favor and buy and read “The Plant Paradoxâ€. Then it’s time to follow Dr. Gundry’s advice and get on with your new healthier and happier life!July 7, 2017I thought I’d give interested readers an update on my 60 days on Dr. Gundry’s diet. First, I have lost 15.5 pounds to date from my average April weight (12.9 from my official diet start at 189.4 on May 7th), just by eating (less of) the right foods and by not eating the wrong foods. The biggest change for me was starting to cook again (I had worked as a dishwasher, busboy and cook in restaurants and fine dining places 50+ years ago). Now I prepare all my own meals – no more meals out. Every day, at a minimum, I have a green smoothie, a hard-boiled egg, and Dr. Gundry’s turkey chorizo sausage and spinach muffin, plus various meats and fish protein, along with his recommended vegetables. I also have found Annabella water buffalo milk-based yogurt – delicious in five different flavors (two - the honey and passion fruit flavors - have too much sugar). I have broken my craving for food and have no problem skipping dinner if I am working. I must say, though, it’s a bit tougher to stay on Gundry’s limit of 6 ounces of red wine per evening!One of the hardest things for me has been to figure out food labels and what’s the right product to buy, even in a place such as Whole Foods. What’s “vegetarian fed†– vegetarian grain? I am having trouble finding grass-fed and finished meats. I used to eat fish maybe twice a month. One recent week I had four different kinds of fish four nights in a row! Scallops and shrimp are especially easy to cook – just fry them in avocado oil with a bit of garlic. I have learned to cook enough for two to four meals all at once. That makes it fast and easy to pull four leftover jumbo shrimps or a chicken thigh out of the fridge the next day for lunch, along with a smoothie and a cup of yogurt.I have a one ounce shot of olive oil every day. I wash it down with red wine – just like drinking salad dressing! One thing I didn’t anticipate when starting Gundry’s diet was that I quickly became constipated. (I know – more raw carrots and celery!) You may not be getting enough roughage/fiber on his diet as you used to. This is easily solved with prune juice or ground flaxseed. My doctor recommended MiraLAX, or you could take Metamucil, but raw vegetables and/or flaxseed and/or prune juice are better for you. Interestingly, about six weeks into Dr. Gundry’s diet, in an undisciplined fit of gluttony, I had a cinnamon/raisin bagel. My stomach felt awful for several hours after that bad behavior.I just finished and briefly reviewed on Amazon Dr. Terry Wahls’ new book “The Wahls Protocolâ€. It’s a superb book that overlaps Dr. Gundry’s book on a Venn diagram about 90%, even though Dr. Wahls comes at things from a slightly different angle as she started with a serious case of MS. Her book has more specifics on blood marker numbers, nutritional content of foods, and some great recipes. She approaches diet from more of a Paleo angle, while Dr. Gundry wants us to avoid lectins. As such, some foods are a yes for one writer and a no for the other - - we are left to figure it out. I still can’t understand why Gundry says no cooked carrots and beets – two of my favorites.After reading Dr. Wahls’ book, I am changing my B12 pills to sublingual ones, and adding CoQ (Qunol’s Ubiquinol) and Emerald Sea’s seaweed powder to my daily intake. The seaweed powder can go right into my smoothie, along with the flaxseed. I am also on Dr. Gundry’s Vital Reds. One thing I notice is that I sleep much better now than before. I also am not so tired during the day.I think followers of Dr. Gundry’s diet should start local chapters in towns and cities where people could meet and discuss their successes and problems/questions concerning Gundry’s diet. Experienced local people could answer simple questions for newcomers and guide them to local stores for the right food products. Medically-oriented questions could be passed on to Dr. Gundry or his staff. Local “success stories†or videos (from anywhere) of personal successes could be shown at these meetings. I have proposed this to Dr. Gundry, but so far he has not replied.I was particularly interested to read about Dr. Wahls’ progress from a “conventionally trained†MD to a practitioner of the much more holistic functional medicine. As far as I know, Dr. Gundry’s, Dr. Wahls’, and perhaps Dr. Raphael Kellman’s current books represent the state-of-the-art in functional medicine regarding self-healing through diet.I’ll update again in another 60 days. For those of you on the fence, jump in and really improve your life and health and self-esteem. Don’t forget that an exercise program, involving aerobic exercise and resistance training is another part of getting healthy.Good luck on your Gundry/Wahls diet program!Remember: More people die from hardening of the mind than hardening of the arteries!May 14, 2018Here’s a brief update after 53 weeks on Dr. Gundry’s “diet†– actually, more like a new way of life! Since mid-April 2017, I have lost a total of 35 pounds. My BMI has gone from 24.4 (not even “overweightâ€) to just under 20. I feel so much better, and obviously didn’t need to be carrying around that extra 35 pounds. Worst part of it all was having to buy a new wardrobe of clothes that fit my new svelte body. LOL!My IBS seems to be about 80% reduced – it’s hard to tell if my leaky gut has completely healed. I have more energy and am sleeping better.I enjoy my diet, have no regrets about being on it, and don’t intend to ever get off it. Slowly I am expanding my food choices, but there is plenty of variety to pick from. I start every day with a hard-boiled egg and one of Dr. Gundry’s Green Egg – Sausage (turkey-chorizo) muffins. For lunch I have 3 to 4 ounces of protein and always include Gundry’s Green Smoothie, to which I add a couple of radishes, flaxseed, MCT oil, and the ingredients of some vitamin capsules. The MCT oil and flaxseed help keep me far more regular that in the past. In total, I am taking about 14 supplements daily – the good ones, not the far-out stuff.I continue to work out in a gym about an hour every other day; life is good! We are starting one of Dr. Gundry’s new support groups here in Austin and I will be involved with that once we get some members. I am so grateful that I discovered Dr. Gundry and the positive benefits that following his recommendations in The Plant Paradox have brought to me. I also would recommend Dr. David Perlmutter’s Brain Grain and Brain Maker, Dr. Terry Wahls The Wahls Protocol, and Dr. Mark Hyman’s Eat Fat, Get Thin. When you read Dr. Dale Bredesen’s The End of Alzheimer’s you will realize the huge role that a proper diet plays in preventing and reversing Alzheimer’s.I urge anyone who wants a better life to read and follow Dr. Gundry’s advice in The Plant Paradox.
