3 EXERCISES TO COMPLIMENT YOUR DIET
The “stress” of exercise – even in small amounts – can help you build muscle, stay stronger, and keep healthy.
One of the best ways to induce this kind of ‘good’ stress is to simply walk. Walking is one of the easiest ways to burn calories – and it’s low impact, too.
In fact, just 30 minutes of brisk walking a day can help you burn up to 150 calories. That means you could burn 3500 calories a week – and that’s about a pound of fat. Walkers and hikers also tend to live longer.
Another great tip I like to give people is…
GET. A. DOG.
It’s not just because I’m a dog lover (although I am – we’ve got 4 dogs at home). It’s also because dogs need to be exercised. Not only will a dog get you out of the house at least twice a day because it can’t walk himself, but he’ll distract you with a game of ball or tug-o-war. Every little bit of movement counts.
HOME SWEET GYM
And, if you’re not a dog person, you can still exercise in your home. In fact, you don’t need weights or a stair-climber. Use what you’ve got! Start by walking your stairs an extra two or three times a day. Use the back of a chair for balance and practice squats or lunges. There are all sorts of ways you can eek a little more movement into your day.
REBOUND YOUR HEALTH
Another idea is invest roughly $30 for a mini trampoline. Try it out for 5 minutes a day. Not only will it boost your metabolism, but you can’t help but feel like a kid on it. Pretty soon, you’ll be giggling—which is also amazing for your health.
Just remember – if your balance isn’t good, put the trampoline near a wall, counter, or sturdy chair, so you have something to grab onto for balance.
Started your diet 1 week ago . Absolutely love it ! The recipes I’ve made so far have been fabulous. I am an RN who works part-time night shift. I was constantly hungry especially. When I got home in the morning. All I craved were carbs. I just couldn’t get enough to satisfy my hunger.
The first week was no struggle at all. As a matter of fact I was so full there were meals I just couldn’t eat because I was not hungry from the last. I have lost 6.5lbs and still going strong. My appetite has decreased immensely and I feel really good! I am just starting Phase 2 and wanted to know if at this phase I can have an occasional glass of red wine with my meal?

If you have 20% blockage in arteries from 7 years ago,..What is a helpful product to get rid of plaque from arteries?? I’m doing diet, vital reds, Prebiothrive, tritrim,primal plants and olive oil for cooking. Will your olive oil make cholesterol go up?? What should be your overall cholesterol levels?? I’ve been diabetic for 42 years. I have no complications and don’t want them. Please email back, Kathy Mast

Or I have to respect exactly the order of the menu for maximum Results…
Thank you for lmk

I bought a pressure cooker and made potatoes but my I had alot pain and constipation after. How often can I eat potatoes? Also it took only 4 minutes to cook. Does that sound right?
I think white potatoes are on the “No” list.
Dr. Gundry
I have bone spurs in my neck and back. Also a pinched nerve in my lower back affecting my back and right hip. What supplements do you recommend?
1.Is there red dye in vital Reds? 2.Do you take all 3 pills of total restore at they same time?? Or do you take one before each meal?? 3.can you take vital Reds and total Restore at the same time?
I have had great success with the plant paradox for reflux and weight loss. I have a grocery bag full of your supplements and feel like there must be a protocol. Could you help with this?
I’m starting Stage one reading Plant Paradox see list but nothing indicates breakfast/brunch
I’m on 16 day fast no dairy fiber past 2 weeks Don’t like Avocados
What meals can you advise please
I am wondering if my extremely thin son can GAIN some weight on this program. 6 ft 1” 125 lbs!!
Please give us the recommended amounts of olive oil to use on each meal.Thank you Dr.Gundry.
I started your “yes” food list around July. Not easy when people around you eat different. Lost 15 pounds, not pre diabetic anymore, my blood pressure is back to normal. Hashimoto disease is under control. I had a breast cancer removed in my right breast in January of this year and after reading your book decided not to take arimidex and prevent cancer to come back by following your keto plant paradox. My question today is: how can I rid of the sweating during the night. My room temp. is 69. hope you have an answer for me. Thanks for all your hard work, information and support!!!
I bought your products awhile ago and never started because I wasn’t quite sure HOW the program works. I have the probiotic powder and the prebiotic capsules. How do I get started? Is there a plan or guideline resource to use?
Where do I find the answers to the asked questions ?? I really don’t know how to start the program…help
Read his book, the planet paradox
3 Exercises That Compliment The Dr. Gundry Diet.
Well, I was about to read the article, but the title threw me off. The exercises will not “compliment” the diet, I may receive compliments from following the diet and doing the exercises. I imagine you meant the exercises will “complement”, as in they will complete or enhance Dr. Gundry’s diet.
Dr. Gundry,
Just curious about your views on Nordic Walking. I’m 62 and use to jump rope daily, but actually feel a better whole body workout (especially in the arms) with NW.

Dr. Gundry,
Not sure if my previous ? went through. My ? was about your views on Nordic Walking. I’m 62 and find it seems to give me a more complete body workout as to a daily routine of jumping rope.
I’ve been following your eating methods for years and successfully lost 32lbs. 2 years ago I picked up mountain biking. Your way of eating does not help at all with the calorie and carb needs of that intense sport. I started consuming carbs and gained 20lbs that would not come off. Any suggestions? Maybe you’ll come up with a book for active and hard working people like you mentioned some Asians eat white rice but burn it off working the fields. I need to know what good carbs there are so that I can continue my mountain biking obsession 2-4 times a week.
Sweet potato.
I just received the vanilla shake… the taste is terrible, unfortunately, I’m disappointed.
I do have the chocolate and that has been so good that I made avocado pudding using it.
I’m on the verge of throwing it out. I’m disappointed in your chat person Vidal M. I will not spend my money to return nor will I go out during this pandemic. I have only been out for food or doctor .
