Dr. Steven Gundry: New York Times best-selling author, cardiac surgeon, medical researcher, and founder of Gundry MD.
In 2017, renowned cardiac surgeon Dr.
Steven Gundry’s The
Plant Paradox revealed the
hidden toxins lurking in
seemingly
healthy
food
like
tomatoes,
zucchini,
quinoa,
and
brown
rice:
a class of plant-based proteins called
lectins.
The
book
became
a massive New
York Times
bestseller, dramatically improved the
health of
hundreds of
thousands, and changed the conversation around gut
health, inflammation, weight loss and so much
more. Now, with THE PLANT
PARADOX COOKBOOK: 100
Delicious Recipes to Help You
Lose Weight, Heal
Your Gut,
and Live
Lectin-Free (April
10, 2018;
ISBN: 9780062843371; $29.99; 256
pages, 4-color), Dr.
Gundry offers a
collection of
100 delicious, healthy, and
diverse recipes to help
readers maintain their new
way of
eating, for
life.
Many people are
familiar with
one of
the most
predominant lectins in
today’s diet—gluten—but few
among us
are
aware of the
inflammatory effects of
the wider host
of lectins found in
otherwise innocent produce. And
while cutting out
the bread to
go gluten-free is
relatively straightforward, going
100% lectin-free can be
confusing—until
now. “It’s taken a
lot of
trial and
error, tasting and
testing, and
plenty of
dirty dishes, but I’ve
finally been
able to compile the
collection of
tasty, healthy, and
diverse recipes that my
patients—and you readers—deserve,” writes Dr. Gundry.
In The Plant Paradox Cookbook, Dr. Gundry
offers an overview of
the Plant Paradox program, instructs readers on
how to
overhaul their pantries, and
provides shopping lists to
make delicious, simple, seasonal, lectin-free meals that
will replenish and
revitalize those suffering from chronic inflammation. Dr. Gundry also
shares his hacks for
making high-lectin foods safe
to eat,
including methods like pressure-cooking grains and
peeling and deseeding tomatoes, and
provides guidance for vegan and
vegetarian readers.
