The Gundry Philosophy
“Disease begins and ends in the gut.”
The Gundry Philosophy is a radical break from the traditional dietary “wisdom” which has failed so many Americans over the past few decades. Dr. Gundry’s work offers a breakthrough for those of you who have struggled for years with your energy levels, your weight, and your health.
If you’ve tried everything and nothing has worked… Dr. Gundry offers you HOPE. His philosophy centers around the fact that your digestive system needs key energy sources that are not present in the modern diet. At the same time, it’s being damaged by a huge number of foods that are part of our “Standard American Diet.”
”The road to health is paved with good intestines. Start repairing yours today.”
- Dr. G

Real Results from Real People
Michelle
I read the plant paradox book. I had Diverticulitis, fibromyalgia, sever asthma. I was 200 pounds over weight. I have been doing this for 5 months and have lost 32 pounds. My asthma is a lot better. All my pain is gone. I feel so much better. I am off my 8 meds that I used to be on. I only take vitamin C and vitamin D. I also take the Bio Complete 3 and take the lectin shield when going out to eat.
Nadia
I continue to lose pounds and become more and more healthy and stronger. My skin changed, my energy, infllammation. I started at 380 lbs and I am now 152 lbs.
Brie (lectinfreewife)
After a kidney biopsy it was confimed I had a rare autoimmune disease with no known cure OR treatment. Desperate to find healing I found The Plant Paradox. I read his book. I tried his diet/lifestyle. No pills. No medication. No surgery. Just changed what I ate. It worked. I have been following a lectin free diet for the past 3 years. Now my health is better than it’s ever been. Ailements that I had understood to be normal (my whole life) faded away or are completely gone
Michelle McCollough
I feel so very healthy and I exercise, which I never have done… I have lost a total of 110 lbs the last 40 came off when I started eating the Gundry way, and my sed rate and crp levels are in normal ranges, and previously they were in the 100 range.

These two photos were taken exactly three years apart today. May 22, 2020 in the green shirt and May 22, 2023 in my white Medium sized t-shirt. Three years ago I made the choice to stop eating all sugar (even those found naturally) and severely limit foods that are high in lectins. Some people thought I was crazy. After three years I am living proof that all diseases (including cancer) start in the gut and can be prevented by what you put in your mouth. This is all thanks to the hard work by Dr. Gundry who literally saved my life even though I have yet to meet him.

I started searching online for alternative things to try when I came across Plant Paradox. Then I started searching for other recipes and found LectinFreeWife.Two years after following a lection free lifestyle my RA was back in remission, I’m down 90 pounds and working out daily. On the few times I’ve eaten things with lectins my knees remind me that’s not my life anymore. Changing to this lifestyle wasn’t hard, even living in jalepeno loving Texas.
Kourtney Herndon
I started the lectin free journey because I wanted to live a better life. I didn’t realize it would make me lose weight. That was a bonus for me. Since starting my lectin free journey 2 years ago I no longer have high blood pressure or diabetes. I take no medications and I feel like I am on top of the world. I went from being 270 pounds to 188. I was wearing a size 22 clothes. I now wear a size 10. I am loving the improved me!!!

The moment I started to look into food and lifestyle in general and discovered Dr. Gundry was the turning point for me.
Extra weight started to come off, the inflammation was drastically reduced and I started to feel my body was not as stiff as I thought it was.
