Dr. Gundry's Diet Evolution: Turn Off the Genes That Are Killing You and Your Waistline
About this product
A renowned heart surgeon presents an accessible, research-based program to teach you how you can “reset” your genes to restore your health, lose weight, and extend your life.
Does losing weight and staying healthy feel like a battle? Well, it’s really a war. Your enemies are your own genes, backed by millions of years of evolution, and the only way to win is to outsmart them. Dr. Steven Gundry’s revolutionary book shares the health secrets other doctors won’t tell you:
• Why plants are “good” for you because they’re “bad” for you, and meat is “bad” because it’s “good” for you
• Why plateauing on this diet is actually a sign that you’re on the right track
• Why artificial sweeteners have the same effects as sugar on your health and your waistline
• Why taking antacids, statins, and drugs for high blood pressure and arthritis masks health issues instead of addressing them
Along with the meal planner, 70 delicious recipes, and inspirational stories, Dr. Gundry’s easy-to-memorize tips will keep you healthy and on course. Read more
Editor's Take
Amazon reviewers generally describe Dr. Gundry's Diet Evolution as informative, compelling, and easy to understand, with many saying the advice is practical and the diet is simple to follow. Some reviewers report weight-loss and health improvements, while others mention mixed feelings about the book’s value for money.
Goodreads and Target reviews lean positive as well, with readers calling it eye-opening, well documented, and easy to read. A minority of reviews are more skeptical, noting that parts feel too scientific or that the approach may be controversial.
Outside retail sites, review blogs such as Fitness Clone and Prime Women present the book as intriguing but debate the strength of the evidence behind its lectin-focused claims. Overall, the customer opinion is mostly favorable, with the strongest praise centered on readability, practicality, and perceived results.
