Summary Of The Plant Paradox By Dr Steven Gundry

Steven Gundry's The Plant Paradox is a diet book, which argues that many fruits and vegetables are dangerous to your health. Gundry says that a plant protein called lectin is responsible for obesity and many autoimmune disorders. Gundry offers a diet that eliminates lectins, GMOs, and other toxins. This diet will allow people to reduce weight, improve health, and eliminate a wide range of conditions including diabetes, heart disease, lupus, and more.


Lectins are plant toxins. Plants evolved lectins as poisons to discourage insects from eating plant seeds or other parts of the plant. Lectins are in most plants, and can cause sickness in humans. Eating good plants is vital for health, but many plants we typically think of as "healthy" are actually full of lectins, which cause damage to the body.

Like most diet book that seeks to explain the science behind the program, this summary is very detailed in doing so. The summary is "dense." Maybe the reason the book needs a summary in the first place. The summary, however, doesn't replace reading the actual book because the program isn't in there despite the fact that the author describes the 3 phases of the program. Spoiler - phase 3 is optional.
