As is the case with this book got well into it it was interesting yes even if it is from an American standpoint it still applies here in the uk as we seem to have adopted most if not all US farming practices the very worse of animal husbandry and with crop growing systems on an industrial scale most of these have been imported from the land of the so called free. so this book was an eye opener to the truth of the failure of the American diet(dream) and the fat epidemic. but also it shines a light on other little known causes for chronic ill health and still in practice here, most touted as healthy eating by the nhs with nothing changed from the low fat is good for you and no fat is even better lie. and the lies about heat refined vegetable oil being good for the body and sugar is not harmful or addictive fib. and how it is next to impossible to escape from it as their all used in everything with deceptive names and clauses so it doesn't have to be declared on the ingredient list even when they say it is free from those nasty bad ingredients how the big stores allow it all to be in the product just to keep making large profits from the sugar addicted ignorance of their consumers Any how back to the book, it will open your mind to all the things you need to be aware of if you want to have a healthy pain free life, it'll show you the truth. things that you really should know that are not taught anywhere, not in schools or ever on the tv. and defiantly never offered by your private/general practise doctor pill pusher with the, take a couple of these you'll feel better drug med philosophy makes them seem Hench-gentleman/lady's and zombie droog's of the big pharma corporate monster. though i didn't need the book as i'd seen a few of the authors vlogs on youtube that go into greater depth and detail on all the subjects in this book And much much more he introduces other and varied health and life ideas by medical specialists world wide. a vast knowledge base to be explored at leisure pick and chose what you think you might follow and get round to being as and when the penny drops and understanding seeps in helps your aim in banging that nail home beat the flab and beat the aches and pains what to avoid or limit so much you didn't know, you didn't know.
Review: The book is not easy reading (twice with highlighting in my case) but well ... - The book is not easy reading (twice with highlighting in my case) but well worth the effort!!! Dr Gundry's supplements are good but expensive (especially when shipped to the UK with added VAT) but following the main part of the book as a lifestyle change eating plan,, taking B Complex supplements, Vit D and a multivit and mineral tablet every day still cannot fail to get results. As a healthy but very overweight 68 year old sweet- toothed vegetarian, in Jan 2017 his 'Diet Evolution' simply clicked with me, and I followed the suggestion in it, and now have adapted fully to the Plant Paradox plan. Weight lose is slow but steady,but the other benefits more than make up for this. I've cured my sweet tooth addiction, and now experience a lovely sense of well-being. None of this is a quick fix, it's not easy but VERY beneficial: visible results are not only external but also internal. I did and will continue to buy the Vital Reds supplement because loving fruit, I know I must limit it to a max to avoid sugar cravings. Vital Reds contain fruit extracts but mixed with yogurt (goat milk) it doesn't cause further sugar cravings. Dr Gundry's supplements aren't cheap, especially as you have to add vat to UK imports, and sometimes especially in his first book, there is a little bit too much American hard sell of his products. However, much to his credit he seems to have realized that not everyone's budget is infinitely elastic, and cheaper alternatives are frequently presented in the Plant Paradox. Super book, super plans and super doctor. I've ignored his debunkers-hope you will too! .

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ PLANT PARADOX ENLIGHTENING INFORMATION REVEALS OTHER 'DIETARY HEALTH' REGIMES TO BE INEFFECTIVE
*by R***. on 8 July 2017*

This most informative book is well presented in small sections that are are easy to read as well as understand as Dr Gundry explains everything so clearly, step by step. It is essential reading for whoever wants to improve their health, whether on a gluten free regime (which is also loaded with the dreaded inflammatory lectins) , is overweight, has inflammation of the gut, other very serious health issues, or whatever. Dr Gundry gives you the science as to why certain issues prevail not only in humans but in cattle too, and has found over years of his research that if you eat the flesh of cattle that have been fattened on lectin containing feed, these inflammatory proteins that cannot be dissolved, will affect your gut too. It is a most enlightening book and can be picked up as and when the urge for more information needs to be satisfied. ALL of my large collection of supposedly health promoting dietary advice books are now in the recycling bin as nothing else can touch this insightful advice. The 3 stages of this dietary program as well as the detailed delicious easy to prepare recipes are most helpful as a pathway to health.. Some of the recommended US foods are not readily available other than in Health Food shops or via Amazon, but they ARE available. And, other supermarkets with FREE FROM isles could be encouraged to stock them. Dr Gundry's recipes are easy to follow and are delightfully tasty.
