I find this book disturbing. What he says, at times, seems very logical. However, after looking into the author I find that he is not respected in the scientific community and is often cited for lack of actual research.

There are many other more respected books and eating guidelines out there.

Thank you to NetGalley for an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

I found this to be readable and interesting. It seems well-researched and I found clarity on a confusing subject. I tapered off near the end as the plan seemed to go a bit too extreme, but as with any non-fiction book, take what works and leave the rest!

I've known a number of people (indluding my daughter and my best friend) who swear by Dr. Gundry (as well as a few who swear AT him). I admit to being a sucker for self-help books that focus on nutrition as the way to improve health. And TBH he has helped many many people. But I think he has mostly helped himself, by being one of the premier salesmen I've ever seen or heard. He has a boatload of things to sell you, seemingly all of them essential pieces of his "plan." No thanks, doc. I am happy this works for so many but I just can't get past the hard sell. One star, and thanks to Harper and NetGalley for providing a copy in exchange for my honest review.
