    About this audiobook

    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, seventy delicious recipes, and inspirational stories, Dr. Gundry's easy-to-memorize tips will keep you healthy and on course.

    • 5/5
      Excellent book. Not only did I enjoy Dr. Gundry's writing, I learned a lot in listening to this book
    • 4/5
      Clearly presented, includes well defined natural food diet. Extra = supplement info scattered throughout. For a bonus listen to interviews with Jimmy Moore (latest 1/17/2013)
    • 5/5
      Great Read! Found it through YouTube commercial of his . Very relatable
    • 4/5
      Quite informative and breaks down a lot of the questions you may have on how/why this particular approach would work as opposed to others.
    • 5/5
      Well written, entertaining, and it does work. I have met Dr. Gundry and worked with him to get my personalized schedule for supplements. Since I started this system five months ago, I have dropped from 212 to 181 lbs - I'm 6 feet tall, so I'm very close to my target weight. I go back in for blood work this week, to check on my progress with cholesterol control. My first set of blood work was very good and showed marked improvement, without any perscription meds, after only 6 weeks on the diet. It's been 5 months now, and the diet still serves me well. I highly recommend this book to everyone who does not eat mainly vegetables yet (pretty much everyone).

      Dr. Gundry's book is meant to shock the reader into taking action. He argues that the way we eat over-processed foods with high-calories and high-sugar is actually activating our "killer genes," a scary way of saying we're killing ourselves with what we eat. His diet advocates no white or beige food (most breads, pasta, rice), but lots of vegetables, low-sugar fruits, some seafood, grass-fed beef, and free-range poultry are ok too. Supposedly, if we eat as he says, we'll be able to reverse the way our genes undermine us.Some key concepts:Raw is good, he suggests a diet with at least 50% coming from raw foods. Fruits and vegetables are good, the more of them we eat, the more phytochemicals we get from them.Sleep more. Fast once/week, or every other day, by keep your genes guessing when the next meal is, you can trigger your genes into protecting you.Soda is bad.Weight-training is great.
