The Plant Paradox: The Hidden Dangers in "Healthy" Foods that Cause Disease and Weight Gain
Plants have an impressive array of defense tactics to protect themselves from predators of all shapes and sizes, including humans. Stephen Gundry believes that these defense strategies make the seemingly virtuous plants that we consume every day far less 'good for us' than we assume.
Illuminating the hidden dangers lurking on our plates, The Plant Paradox outlines the health hazards posed by lectins and includes a full list of lectin-containing foods with simple substitutes, a step-by-step detox, meal plan, and recipes to show readers how to eat whole foods in an entirely new way.
