Most of us have heard of gluten, a protein found in wheat that causes widespread inflammation in the body. Americans spend billions of dollars on gluten-free diets in an effort to protect their health. But what if weve been missing the root of the problem? In The Plant Paradox, renowned cardiologist Dr. Steven Gundry reveals that gluten is just one variety of a common, and highly toxic, plant-based protein called lectin. Lectins are found not only in grains like wheat but also in the gluten-free foods most of us commonly regard as healthy, including many fruits, vegetables, nuts, beans, and conventional dairy products. These proteins, which are found in the seeds, grains, skins, rinds, and leaves of plants, are designed by nature to protect them from predators (including humans). Once ingested, they incite a kind of chemical warfare in our bodies, causing inflammatory reactions that can lead to weight gain and serious health conditions. At his waitlist-only clinics in California, Dr. Gundry has successfully treated tens of thousands of patients suffering from autoimmune disorders, diabetes, leaky gut syndrome, heart disease, and neurodegenerative diseases with a protocol that detoxes the cells, repairs the gut, and nourishes the body. Now, in The Plant Paradox, he shares this clinically proven program with readers around the world.

Thankfully, Dr. Gundry offers simple hacks we easily can employ to avoid them, including: Peel your veggies. Most of the lectins are contained in the skin and seeds of plants; simply peeling and de-seeding vegetables (like tomatoes and peppers) reduces their lectin content.Shop for fruit in season. Fruit contain fewer lectins when ripe, so eating apples, berries, and other lectin-containing fruits at the peak of ripeness helps minimize your lectin consumption.Swap your brown rice for white. Whole grains and seeds with hard outer coatings are designed by nature to cause digestive distress--and are full of lectins.With a full list of lectin-containing foods and simple substitutes for each, a step-by-step detox and eating plan, and delicious lectin-free recipes, The Plant Paradox illuminates the hidden dangers lurking in your salad bowl--and shows you how to eat whole foods in a whole new way.

Condition: New. Idioma/Language: Español. «No es muy común que un libro sobre salud y nutrición introduzca conceptos realmente novedosos, y es aún más raro que los respalde con sólidos datos científicos y pruebas clínicas, pero este hace precisamente eso». Esta es sólo una de las críticas venidas de la mano de expertos nutricionistas que ha suscitado La paradoja vegetal, best seller en Estados Unidos y número 1 en Amazon. La mayoría de nosotros ha oído hablar de los efectos nocivos del gluten, ¿pero habremos desentendido lo que constituye la verdadera raíz del problema? El prestigioso cardiólogo y cirujano cardiovascular Steve Gundry explica que el gluten no es más que una de las variedades de las lectinas, unas proteínas potencialmente tóxicas que provocan aumento de peso y graves trastornos de salud y que se encuentran en los alimentos «sin gluten» que la mayoría de las personas consideran saludables. Este manual ofrece un cambio de paradigma en la forma en que pensamos en los alimentos supuestamente beneficiosos para el organismo como ciertas frutas, verduras y legumbres. En este libro el doctor Gundry comparte su programa terapéutico, clínicamente contrastado, con lectores de todo el mundo. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.
