Last summer I did the keto diet. I kept having mental breakdowns..I was crying all the time.. So I went back having bread in my diet. I felt better. I tried the keto diet again this summer...Same thing happened....crying all the time. Can you shed the light on what's going on ?
My life has changed because of the changes I have made in my life and started fasting and it truly is amazing and I want to thank You For all Your research. You are for real. I love all that you have shared with Us. Thank You Thank You You really have added many years to my life. Be blessed!!!
Question: I have now bought and read all your books. This is a question having to do with chia seed. Chia is very high in phytic acid, which robs your body of minerals, and also chia is very low in the corresponding phytase enzyme. This sets the stage for tooth decay and even can contribute toward osteoporosis, and possibly even leaky gut. I get that. But Buckwheat, on the other hand, has less phytic acid, and a LOT of phytase -- enough for both of them. The trick is you have to fresh mill, like with a hand crank corona mill, both flours from fresh seed and use it right away. After you mix your flours, add your liquids, mix and knead, you need to let it enzyme-ferment for a few hours, or overnight in the refrigerator. If you do this, the phytic acid goes away. The Phytase breaks it all down. Again, you have to mill viable seeds and use it right away. It makes a wonderful workable dough, smells and tastes great. It kneads like wheat. You can make/do anything with this dough. My question is this: are there other serious lectins besides phytic acid, in either the chia or buckwheat, that would make it a bad idea to try to exploit this phenomenon? Is this a bad or incomplete idea? Thanks.
You asked for questions so here they are. 1. Does Romano cheese or other hard cheese have the same benefit of spermidine as Parmesan? 2. Is hydrolized collagen helpful for aging skin. Does it have the same problems as eating meat? 3. How does a person eat 1L olive oil per week and not gain weight--especially if weight loss only seems to be tied to limiting calories to 1200/day. 4. Tomato sauce from Italy: when using it to make my own pasta sauce (for miracle nooodles) do I need to pressure cook?
I am a chef and started my own cooking channel. I eat similar to a Bear in the wild and hunt for nutrients. I don’t avoid any foods but my diet is mainly vegetarian with meat, fish and dairy around that. Cave men boiled the bones of animals for healthy soup, edwardians worked for their food which involved exercise. I eat lot’s of ginger and never have the flu or stomach problems.
I'd like to know more about nuts. The time need for soaking (or not) macadamia, walnut, pecan, hazelnut, brazilian nut, pistachio, ...Also things like flax seed, black sesame, ...
Eduardo I believe Brazilian nuts would be extra recommendable nowadays, as selenium deficiency may be linked to higher covid 19 mortality.. Just don’t overeat them, as they are particularly loaded.
Eye Health I have dry eyes and they are getting sore and my vision is more effected as I get older particularly in my right eye. And suggestions greatfully received David
I find it interesting how so many people recover from a myriad of diseases when they go carnivore totally or mainly. What is you take on oxalates that many people have problems with, but is never discussed.
Yes! I have fought the extra 10 pounds of belly fat for many years. After seeing your workings, I am wondering if the spacing of my meals is a good tack. I started the 14 -hour fast. I am avoiding eating from three hours before bedtime until at least 10:am. I am eating my giant-sized meals around noon and around 6pm. In 10 days I have lost 8 pounds. My health and my weight are nearly perfect. I am only tweaking my diet to work on those hard to lose pounds. I am a health-nut and eat no processed food. Thank you sir.
Please do a podcast on ONE MEAL A DAY and your experiences. When is the best time to eat it and when to have water, etc. Thank You I love your podcasts
Hello Dr Gundry! I just received your Longevity Paradox book today! I’m only on page 22 and I love it already! I bought the Plant Paradox cookbook last week . I’ve read it cover to cover and am loving to recipes 🙂 I have one request, will you PLEASE do a cookbook for the Longevity Paradox AND include beautiful photographs like you have done in the Plant Paradox? Keeping in mind that we first eat with our eyes! Many thanks and keep looking out for my health!
For those of us who will never make it to your office in Palm Springs, can you provide a list of blood tests and targets that you recommend and refer to in The Longevity Paradox?
I have been following the plant paradox diet for 5weeks with amazing results. My delima is time. I simply don't have the time to shop, prep and, cook all my meals. I have found good meals at restaurants but, I would like to know of some more diverse choices. Please offer some of your favorite restaurants.
Hi, I am a doctor from India. I read plant paradox and following it to cure lupus. I want to know more about lupus specific diet and few success story. Thank you🙏
I have cancer stage 4 lung. I am very fit and well and have followed your Plant Paradox diet to the letter for 18 months. Can I have pressure cooked beans and lentils now or am I on the intensive care diet forever? I appreciate your hard work. I’m still alive and living a healthy life Linda
Love your videos trying to watched all of them. My wife has big problems with an exma dermatitis, she has major breakouts causing burning ichyness and major discomfort.
Dr. Gundry, love your books and follow your protocol. In your longevity book you talk about skincare that your gut bugs like...I know this isn’t a beauty channel of course but can you go over what skincare you recommend. If you make your own? Or something you recommend we stay away from? Cleansers, serums, moisturizers? Thank you!
Hi. I had rheumatoid. I was almost in tears when getting out of bed. Specialist put me on methotrexate but liver started to become damaged. Research out of desperation. Long story short. Water fast for 24 days then went on keto diet + OMAD. Now off all medication, asthma is practically gone and weight coming down to almost my teen days weight. Still losing. Hope this helps. It does work.
Thank you so much.All the information u give is very useful! I have had recently gastritis and i m determined to change my food habits, that s how i came across your videos Hopefully u ll talk on gastritis and irritable colon syndrome . I m sure a lot of ppl suffer from them without even knowing
Glad you asked Dr. Gundry. I know nothing about pressure cooking, maybe a good thing. What is the best way to learn and what is the best pressure cooker to get?
Hi Dr. G. I have your first two books, and will get your new book. So happy about the new approved foods. And I will pressure cook them. Thank you for always thinking about us.
Just bought your book Dr Gundry. I'm ready to try your longevity diet. I don't have weight to lose but I deal with chronic inflammation including arthritis, IBS, acid reflux and sinusitis. I also have celiac disease and already eat gluten free. I rarely eat dairy and I easily can practice Intermittent Fasting. Perhaps lectins are the problem. I'll report back. Thank-you for your research.
I don't believe anyone can get off from emotional stress as life is and was stressful all the time, nowadays no how different from past But I believe you can reduce your organism's overall stress by eating not stress-to-body-making-foods, and that is key to healthy lifestyle, imo
Dr Peter DAdamo is teaching at UB in CT. His lectures are an excellent addition to your videos. Especially Lectins ;). I’m 0 I look forward to our food supply improving - you.?
Hi Dr Gundry, I love your podcast. Please could you talk about Alzheimer's disease and prevention and sarcopenia of old age and how to build muscle in older adults especially vegetarian ones. My father is 86, has dementia and sarcopenia. I've encouraged my parents to move closer to the plant paradox way of eating but these issues are challenging. Thank you
I am 61 yrs old and have been diagnosed with Parkinson’s,I just ordered the supplements for leaky gut,are there any M D trained to guide patients like me .i just bought plant paradox and will be getting this longevity paradox! Thanks,yes this makes sense MaryAnn
I'd really like to see a video aimed at people who have Mast Cell Activation Syndrome, Histamine Intolerance, and SIBO. I have these issues, and am not only sensitive to lectins, but also oxalates, FODMAPS, amines/histamines, eggs, and dairy. This leaves out a majority of the important foods on the plant paradox including olives oil, coconut products, nuts, wild-caught fish, eggs, salads, most leafy greens, dark chocolate, and high fodmap veggies such as cauliflower, asparagus, cabbage which are 'what the gut buddies like to eat', with SIBO they just cause pain and histamine reactions. I'd like to see some videos (or books!) for people who have these issues and need to start out on an even more restricted version of the diet and how to reintroduce the foods on your diet without a reaction. My gut definitely feels so much better after cutting lectins! I just wish I could eat more of the wonderful foods on your list.
I am eagerly waiting for the release in German. I got the German Plant Paradox to my family in German and they loved it. Can't wait to get them the Longevity Paradox!
Dr Gundry, I hear you talk a lot about eating a diet that allows people to be healthy and keep their weight off. How about those of us who have a hard time keeping weight on? This is a topic that rarely gets any coverage. Yet I know many people (women mainly) who just cannot keep weight on. I take in around 2500-3000 cals a day, use enzymes, grass fed protein, eat healthy fats, low sugar, low dairy, low gluten, low histamine/lectins. It seems like I have to bump my carb levels up to gain weight, yet I don’t like the feeling of eating a high carb diet and I don’t want the inflammation that can go with that. I eat about 95% organic, we grow a lot of our own food in our garden too!
Hi Dr. Gundry thanks for your books and knowledge. Eliminating lectins from my diet really took my diet modification to new levels. I’m insulin resistant so I eat no grains, sugars, fruits and many other insulin raising foods. With a modified keto, (low protein) and lectin free diet, my blood sugar on the home meter averages below 100 and I have lost 40 pounds in one year. Im always interested in knowing what is good for me in regards to insulin resistance. My questions are 1. Based on your research, what is the best sweetener- monk, erythritol, stevia, etc. I cannot consume chickory as it makes me pee constantly. 2. Are beets ok to eat or are they just too high in sugar? Thanks so much!
Yes Dr Gundry I would love to know what causes gray hair and balding as people get older why does aging create gray hair and why does aging affect balding specifically male pattern baldness and why can’t a healthy diet a longevity diet prevent hair from going gray or hair from balding if the genes that make “us” up are such a small part of who we are then why can’t gray hair be preventable or balding or hair loss in any amount be preventable? I would love to hear your thoughts on it.
Dr. Gundry, Thank you for your revolutionary information. I had been following an autoimmune protocol when I came across your first, then second book. I had already given up many of the foods that you discuss. I don't tolerate meat, and was using Quorn and eggs, but then, through blood testing for food sensitivities, discovered that I was sensitive to egg whites (along with wheat, corn, soy, and casein). The only trouble that I have been having with eating AIP, Plant Paradox and vegan is finding sufficient protein. I have been primarily using hemp seeds. Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated. If you would even do a podcast addressing autoimmune, vegan and PP, that would better amazing!!
I would like to know what is the mortality rate for cardiologists. What do they die from and how long do they live compared to the general population and is there a common denominator in those who live the longest and healthiest lives?.
Dr. Gundry you have changed my life and I owe you a debt of gratitude, my fibromyalgia pain has disappeared. Now please help me here can you do a podcast on Candida and as I understand I am not allowed to have mushrooms( my favourite) which are a vegetarian super foods. I am a pescatarian because I do not eat dairy as well as being gluten and grain free but I eat eggs and fish and sorry, lentils kill me and I get doubled up with pain. I am trying to find out what should of eat more of or less of so my Candida problemdoes not flare up. Thank you for helping me by elaborating on the ways a lot of women like me could combat Candida. The big C for me is Candida not Cancer!!! Because when it flares up my life turns upside down with fatigue and brain fog.
Why do you recommend eating legumes now? what are the benefits for the microbiome ? I think you should explain why you changed your mind , and now you put legumes as one of the main foods for longevity.
Not sure this is something you’d ever touch on. But what about this: avocado oil in a deep fryer. Does it hurt the oil? 375-400 degree. grass fed finished chicken, beef. Salmon cakes. Pickles. Tempura. Onion rings. Something new I want to try. Fried anything scares me
How do we remove lectins from rice? Is white rice okay, or better than other forms of rice? Does soaking nuts remove lectins? How long do we have to soak them for?
I want to know what vitamin C should I take? And how much? I smoked for 25 years and quit 20 years ago. I am 60 and I look older. Skin is very saggy. Hashimotos is my auto disease.
I make a sort of bulletproof coffee in the morning: to the coffee I add a teaspoon of MCT oil and two teaspoons of fairly thick, but pourable cream. Hopefully there is minimal insulin response from this mixture. Have I broken my (intermittent) fast? Thank you for your insightful information.
I recently got my VIOME microbiome results. It lists foods that I should be eating and foods that I should avoid, as per a customized microbiome analysis of my gut specifically. One of the foods on my absolutely must avoid list is lentils. I'm not a fan of authors making blanket recommendations for all. And as far as longevity goes, my father ate meat everyday and lived to be 96. That's a "longevity paradox" to ponder.
Do you think different blood types makes a difference on how you process different food and also the needs in your diet? Also, I'm barely getting to the plant Paradox after eight months of trying healthy keto and I realize that it's my sleep apnea and financial streas that are keeping to drive the cortisol and that got me to the place of high blood sugar/IR and fatty liver. my interest in the plant Paradox is to heal those things, and, psoriatic arthritis, and possibly, a slow thyroid. the keto way of eating without lots of time to create continual keto recipes and even keto pastas and breads occasionally, and, the equipment to do so, is making the joy in eating more challenging. I am doing intermittent fasting but just the best I can do with that. your schedule and protocol for intermittent fasting sounds really complicated. I don't know how people who are working and trying to survive keep up with things like that. I appreciate that this new book esp. is all towards longevity, which of course I am interested in. My question is with eating things like lentils and other legumes, and sweet potaotes regularly, that are high in carbs can you heal insulin resistance? Also, it's great you find the high polyphenol olive oils that a little goes a long way but just one bottle plus the shipping($50) is expensive! Wish it was more affordable... do you have any sugesstions for an olive oil that might not be quite so concentrated in polyphenols but it's still a good one? And less expensive? Thank you for answering these questions, if you do. 😊
I would like to hear about applications for athletes playing anaerobic sports like soccer and basketball, and differences in nutrition for muscle building versus muscle recovery.
Plant Paradox Diet and current food allergies. I bought your new book and the cook book as well. The recipes look so AMAZING! However, I am very sensitive to dairy in all forms, as well as nuts. Should I just dive in and let my gut catch up? Or how long should I wait before trying to reimplement those foods?
I know it sounds absurd but I do genuinely want to know how bugs work in our diet. I would assume we would eat them when we would find them as hunter gathers? Bugs are really common food in some countries too so im curious about their nutritional value and how it works with us.
Dr. Gundry, I've read that people with migraines need to eliminate carbs. Can you elaborate on this...is it true or false. And what foods specifically do I need to eat more of. Thanks!
Thank you, sir, for the priceless information you (and other holistic doctors) continue to share. You asked for a question; well, you being an MD, and besides the eating advice you give, sleeping well, minimal-stress and having a life-loving high spirit for a healthy life, I'd like to know if I may, what is your opinion on the MINIMAL physical activity one of my age or other, (I am 60 years old) should regularly do in order to keep optimal health? I don't mean athletic health but just normal optimal health. For example, I myself have made it a habit of taking contrast showers every morning and all year round; going for a 20 to 40 minutes walk two or three times a week. A brief but high intensity exercise two or three times a week, climbing between 11 to 20 stories of stairs, which get my heart going for a few minutes. And I also alternate between one-day doing push-ups and another doing pull-ups for five days of the week. In addition to eating only once a day, with a one-hour feeding window from Monday to Fridays. On weekends I let go and eat and do whatever. Now, to be honest, I feel that my practices are perfect (at least for me) and I'm even proud of it, however, not being a doctor I'm not so sure if this is as good as I think, maybe I'm overdoing things, or maybe it's not necessary; meaning that If I can get away with only do half of what I do and still be healthy, I'll more than welcome it!! I suppose and hope that many like me, (being rather lazy and reluctant to effort), will benefit from your professional views and advice. and therefore thank you in advance.
I’d like to know about having children after 40. Is there any extra diet changes to add onto the Plant Paradox/Longevity Paradox to help get pregnant and have a healthy pregnancy and fetus?
check leading brain researchers: Dr. Purlmutter, Dr Datis Kharrazian, Dr Dale Bredesen (in reverse order). Absolutely NO sugar is primary, as they've related Alzheimers to blood sugar spikes. There's lots more - check out those guys, they're the best on that topic, imo (I have 'the gene', too). Here's a start: ruclips.net/video/NUh1fTLrebg/видео.html
I would like to hear more information about weight lifting and recommendations for gaining muscle for women. Are there different tactics when it comes to eating if you're looking to gain muscle? I've always been tiny, so I'm more interested in gaining muscle mass.
I have autoimmune diseases. For about 20 years I’ve had extreme muscle cramps. I can get them in both inner thighs at the same time and am in excruciating pain for about 1/2 hour. I get them in my lower legs and hands as well. I treat the pain with hot, wet towels. Nothing touches these cramps. I’ve tried magnesium of every kind, Quinine and Taurine. Since fine tuning my Keto diet with Omad , I’m suspecting the cramps were caused by lectins. Can you shed some light on this? I got absolutely no help from my rheumatologist or liver specialist. I am almost 68 and plan to live till I’m 120 years old!
Love your books Dr.Gundry( have all of them, some twice). I‘ve been Vegan since 6 months- have to say find it challenging to be „Gundry“ approved and Vegan. A Vegan recepe book would be great. Pls keep the vegan recipes coming! KR, Mary
Yes, I want to know how I can correct my eye vision back to 20/20 from 20/600 with astigmatism, naturally... I also want to know how I can get rid of cataracts naturally... Does pressure cooking the legumes prevent gas?
Is there a strategy to include more animal protein and fats in the best way possible? Perhaps including organ meats to balance over consumption of some amino acids in muscle?
Hello Dr. Gundry. I am so excited to have discovered you and your research. I am still trying to figure it all out and how to accomplish a better eating plan for myself and my family. That said there are two things that would be really helpful: The first item is that although I know you did a short video regarding how to follow this plan on a budget, I am super strapped for cash so I am wondering if you could do another more in-depth video of budget options? I guess even if the budget options are not as good as the "real" top line organic options, it would be a way to start getting on track for us. The second item I am curious about is a bit off topic but I thought you might have some insight into it...fluoride. There seems to be SO much information on the internet that states fluoride is not needed and is even bad for us that I am struggling with whether to include it in our families oral care (2 young children 7 and 8). My family thinks I am nuts for even considering a dental regime that doesn't include fluoride but I have heard it messes with our hormones and other stuff. I am pretty much developing a healthy addiction to your videos and feel like finally something that makes sense is being revealed to us. My husband has had a ton of health issues and I remember him saying that he felt like something was attacking his nervous system. Now to hear how eating certain things is really digesting poisons that could attack our nervous systems is amazing. Anyway, I could go on and on but I have taken enough of your time. Thank you for your work, your time and everything.
Hi … Love your posts. I know you feel much better and look much better than peers your age . One question, have you ever tried natural ways of getting back hair pigmentation? I am currently trying molasses, olive oil, Fenugreek drops but I just started and too soon for any results. do you suggest anything ?
Hi Dock. Just recently came across your channel.. Now subscribed, a wonderful library of researched, studied and trustworthy health information.. I WOULD GRATELEY APPRECIATE. your views on the regular consumption of raw un processed organic dehulled COCAO - nuts and nibs. Many thanks for your great life saving work.. Blessings to you and family..
Dr Gundry you are great. I have a couple of questions. You mentioned in one of your videos that you shouldn’t ever need toilet paper and something about the leaky guts. Please tell me where I can get more info on that. Also, what is your recommendation and natural way to help with ED? Thank you.
Hi Dr Gundry, I am type 1 diabetic and I have purchased your book “plant paradox” I love it, good job. How can I have so much olive oil on your recommend recipes, since any oil prevents insulin to carry the sugar into cells. Please shed some light on this issue for some of us with diabetes’ curse. Thanks
I take alot of supplements every day and wanted to ask what supplements work and what supplements are a waste of 💰 money.Also how many supplements should I take at a time? Can you take too many at once?
A lot of great changes discussed were the some of the problems I had with the plat to paradox diet. A big reason I gave it not much credit. Restricting legumes I knew to be ludicrous whereas restricting animal protein was really the right course of action. instant pot curried lentils have always been a staple for me. Happy to see the reassessment of priories:)
In your book you mention Valter Longo a few times however there is a substantial discrepancy in reference to lectins as dr Longo adds a lot in his menus
All these tips seem to be vouching for weight loss, restricting calories and fasting. But what about those who are doing resistance training and are looking for weight and muscle gain?? Please elaborate.
I am 67 years old and been doing keto for 3 months no grains no sugars fruits etc.I started this because I thinkaybe my arteries have become calcium blocked.Is there a way to unblock or clean out the arteries?Thanks.I just ordered your books.

Does Malanga contain lectins?
Hi Dr. I would like to know how to get rid of brown spots that are caused by sun damage or hormones. Thanks
I’m a light sleeper. How can I sleep better?
Last summer I did the keto diet. I kept having mental breakdowns..I was crying all the time.. So I went back having bread in my diet. I felt better. I tried the keto diet again this summer...Same thing happened....crying all the time. Can you shed the light on what's going on ?

Legumes and other fibre and resistant starches are ridiculously good at providing fuel for your ‘good bacteria’
I'd like to know more about nuts. The time need for soaking (or not) macadamia, walnut, pecan, hazelnut, brazilian nut, pistachio, ...Also things like flax seed, black sesame, ...
Eduardo Augusto Silvestre look elsewhere in youtube search box
From the PP book... all those nuts, flax and sesame are ok!
Eduardo I believe Brazilian nuts would be extra recommendable nowadays, as selenium deficiency may be linked to higher covid 19 mortality.. Just don’t overeat them, as they are particularly loaded.
Thank you do much Dr gundry im very happy with all your sugestion thank you and God bless you

Love your videos trying to watched all of them. My wife has big problems with an exma dermatitis, she has major breakouts causing burning ichyness and major discomfort.
Dr. Gundry, love your books and follow your protocol. In your longevity book you talk about skincare that your gut bugs like...I know this isn’t a beauty channel of course but can you go over what skincare you recommend. If you make your own? Or something you recommend we stay away from? Cleansers, serums, moisturizers?
Thank you!
I use olive oil on my body, it helps a lot (dry skin), in Winter time.
One question I keep getting asked ...
What does Dr Gundry think of Alkaline Water? Pros/cons would love to hear your thoughts. Is it beneficial?
what are your specific recommendations for a rheumatoid arthritis please
Moringa
Hi. I had rheumatoid. I was almost in tears when getting out of bed. Specialist put me on methotrexate but liver started to become damaged. Research out of desperation. Long story short. Water fast for 24 days then went on keto diet + OMAD. Now off all medication, asthma is practically gone and weight coming down to almost my teen days weight. Still losing. Hope this helps. It does work.
Thank you so much.All the information u give is very useful! I have had recently gastritis and i m determined to change my food habits, that s how i came across your videos
Hopefully u ll talk on gastritis and irritable colon syndrome . I m sure a lot of ppl suffer from them without even knowing
You have changed my life. Amazing
My question is: What supplements do you recommend someone doing the diet should take? The supplements sections references dozens.
Glad you asked Dr. Gundry. I know nothing about pressure cooking, maybe a good thing. What is the best way to learn and what is the best pressure cooker to get?
Hi Dr. G. I have your first two books, and will get your new book.
So happy about the new approved foods. And I will pressure cook them. Thank you for always thinking about us.
I would also love your thoughts on gut microbiome testing. Would you recommend a company and what do you think of the science behind it?
I am so grateful to have found your podcast channel👍
Just bought your book Dr Gundry. I'm ready to try your longevity diet. I don't have weight to lose but I deal with chronic inflammation including arthritis, IBS, acid reflux and sinusitis. I also have celiac disease and already eat gluten free. I rarely eat dairy and I easily can practice Intermittent Fasting. Perhaps lectins are the problem. I'll report back. Thank-you for your research.
I don't believe anyone can get off from emotional stress as life is and was stressful all the time, nowadays no how different from past
But I believe you can reduce your organism's overall stress by eating not stress-to-body-making-foods, and that is key to healthy lifestyle, imo
Dr Peter DAdamo is teaching at UB in CT. His lectures are an excellent addition to your videos. Especially Lectins ;). I’m 0 I look forward to our food supply improving - you.?
Any food or eating habits that will help with acute anxiety or PTSD?
Hi Dr Gundry, I love your podcast. Please could you talk about Alzheimer's disease and prevention and sarcopenia of old age and how to build muscle in older adults especially vegetarian ones. My father is 86, has dementia and sarcopenia. I've encouraged my parents to move closer to the plant paradox way of eating but these issues are challenging. Thank you
Can you please make a video on water. Specifically what type of water filtration you use and how you hydrogenate your water?
i'd like to know this as well
@Man on the street problem with distilling water it strips it of all good minerals and can in return Rob your body of them to replace them

How to deal with menopause
More about the food for children
I'd really like to see a video aimed at people who have Mast Cell Activation Syndrome, Histamine Intolerance, and SIBO. I have these issues, and am not only sensitive to lectins, but also oxalates, FODMAPS, amines/histamines, eggs, and dairy. This leaves out a majority of the important foods on the plant paradox including olives oil, coconut products, nuts, wild-caught fish, eggs, salads, most leafy greens, dark chocolate, and high fodmap veggies such as cauliflower, asparagus, cabbage which are 'what the gut buddies like to eat', with SIBO they just cause pain and histamine reactions. I'd like to see some videos (or books!) for people who have these issues and need to start out on an even more restricted version of the diet and how to reintroduce the foods on your diet without a reaction. My gut definitely feels so much better after cutting lectins! I just wish I could eat more of the wonderful foods on your list.
I am eagerly waiting for the release in German. I got the German Plant Paradox to my family in German and they loved it. Can't wait to get them the Longevity Paradox!
Thank you so much our family has suffered from allergies forever. As a child, I could only eat chicken, rice and goats milk!!!!!
Dr Gundry, I hear you talk a lot about eating a diet that allows people to be healthy and keep their weight off. How about those of us who have a hard time keeping weight on? This is a topic that rarely gets any coverage. Yet I know many people (women mainly) who just cannot keep weight on. I take in around 2500-3000 cals a day, use enzymes, grass fed protein, eat healthy fats, low sugar, low dairy, low gluten, low histamine/lectins. It seems like I have to bump my carb levels up to gain weight, yet I don’t like the feeling of eating a high carb diet and I don’t want the inflammation that can go with that. I eat about 95% organic, we grow a lot of our own food in our garden too!
Hi Dr. Gundry thanks for your books and knowledge. Eliminating lectins from my diet really took my diet modification to new levels. I’m insulin resistant so I eat no grains, sugars, fruits and many other insulin raising foods. With a modified keto, (low protein) and lectin free diet, my blood sugar on the home meter averages below 100 and I have lost 40 pounds in one year. Im always interested in knowing what is good for me in regards to insulin resistance.
My questions are
1. Based on your research, what is the best sweetener- monk, erythritol, stevia, etc. I cannot consume chickory as it makes me pee constantly.
2. Are beets ok to eat or are they just too high in sugar?
Thanks so much!
Could you please speak to those of us who are attempting to control blood sugar issues?
Get off foods with added sugar. Stop drinking juice, cut way back on grains. Keep cutting back even more on grains and most fruits...berries are OK.

What is your opinion on blood type diet? It works well for many people...
Yes Dr Gundry I would love to know what causes gray hair and balding as people get older why does aging create gray hair and why does aging affect balding specifically male pattern baldness and why can’t a healthy diet a longevity diet prevent hair from going gray or hair from balding if the genes that make “us” up are such a small part of who we are then why can’t gray hair be preventable or balding or hair loss in any amount be preventable? I would love to hear your thoughts on it.
Dr. Gundry,
Thank you for your revolutionary information. I had been following an autoimmune protocol when I came across your first, then second book. I had already given up many of the foods that you discuss. I don't tolerate meat, and was using Quorn and eggs, but then, through blood testing for food sensitivities, discovered that I was sensitive to egg whites (along with wheat, corn, soy, and casein). The only trouble that I have been having with eating AIP, Plant Paradox and vegan is finding sufficient protein. I have been primarily using hemp seeds. Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated. If you would even do a podcast addressing autoimmune, vegan and PP, that would better amazing!!
I would like to know what is the mortality rate for cardiologists. What do they die from and how long do they live compared to the general population and is there a common denominator in those who live the longest and healthiest lives?.
Dr. Gundry you have changed my life and I owe you a debt of gratitude, my fibromyalgia pain has disappeared. Now please help me here can you do a podcast on Candida and as I understand I am not allowed to have mushrooms( my favourite) which are a vegetarian super foods. I am a pescatarian because I do not eat dairy as well as being gluten and grain free but I eat eggs and fish and sorry, lentils kill me and I get doubled up with pain. I am trying to find out what should of eat more of or less of so my Candida problemdoes not flare up. Thank you for helping me by elaborating on the ways a lot of women like me could combat Candida. The big C for me is Candida not Cancer!!! Because when it flares up my life turns upside down with fatigue and brain fog.
Why do you recommend eating legumes now? what are the benefits for the microbiome ? I think you should explain why you changed your mind , and now you put legumes as one of the main foods for longevity.
This is fascinating stuff and I will get the book from the library to test it out.
I’d like to know if I should avoid Millet since I have had Hypothyroidism for years.
Tips for rosacea... is it linked to gut health and if so can it be cured?
Not sure this is something you’d ever touch on. But what about this: avocado oil in a deep fryer. Does it hurt the oil? 375-400 degree. grass fed finished chicken, beef. Salmon cakes. Pickles. Tempura. Onion rings. Something new I want to try. Fried anything scares me
How do we remove lectins from rice? Is white rice okay, or better than other forms of rice? Does soaking nuts remove lectins? How long do we have to soak them for?
I am following your lifestyle plan. So far so good.
Question: How do we best wash off insecticide?

Dr. Gundry is da man!
what foods are best for energy and productivity??
I want to know what vitamin C should I take? And how much? I smoked for 25 years and quit 20 years ago. I am 60 and I look older. Skin is very saggy. Hashimotos is my auto disease.
I make a sort of bulletproof coffee in the morning: to the coffee I add a teaspoon of MCT oil and two teaspoons of fairly thick, but pourable cream. Hopefully there is minimal insulin response from this mixture. Have I broken my (intermittent) fast?
Thank you for your insightful information.
I recently got my VIOME microbiome results. It lists foods that I should be eating and foods that I should avoid, as per a customized microbiome analysis of my gut specifically. One of the foods on my absolutely must avoid list is lentils. I'm not a fan of authors making blanket recommendations for all. And as far as longevity goes, my father ate meat everyday and lived to be 96. That's a "longevity paradox" to ponder.
Please talk about Cacao Nibs? How any per day?
Do you think different blood types makes a difference on how you process different food and also the needs in your diet? Also, I'm barely getting to the plant Paradox after eight months of trying healthy keto and I realize that it's my sleep apnea and financial streas that are keeping to drive the cortisol and that got me to the place of high blood sugar/IR and fatty liver. my interest in the plant Paradox is to heal those things, and, psoriatic arthritis, and possibly, a slow thyroid. the keto way of eating without lots of time to create continual keto recipes and even keto pastas and breads occasionally, and, the equipment to do so, is making the joy in eating more challenging. I am doing intermittent fasting but just the best I can do with that. your schedule and protocol for intermittent fasting sounds really complicated. I don't know how people who are working and trying to survive keep up with things like that. I appreciate that this new book esp. is all towards longevity, which of course I am interested in. My question is with eating things like lentils and other legumes, and sweet potaotes regularly, that are high in carbs can you heal insulin resistance? Also, it's great you find the high polyphenol olive oils that a little goes a long way but just one bottle plus the shipping($50) is expensive! Wish it was more affordable... do you have any sugesstions for an olive oil that might not be quite so concentrated in polyphenols but it's still a good one? And less expensive? Thank you for answering these questions, if you do. 😊
I would like to hear about applications for athletes playing anaerobic sports like soccer and basketball, and differences in nutrition for muscle building versus muscle recovery.
Plant Paradox Diet and current food allergies.
I bought your new book and the cook book as well. The recipes look so AMAZING! However, I am very sensitive to dairy in all forms, as well as nuts. Should I just dive in and let my gut catch up? Or how long should I wait before trying to reimplement those foods?
I know it sounds absurd but I do genuinely want to know how bugs work in our diet. I would assume we would eat them when we would find them as hunter gathers? Bugs are really common food in some countries too so im curious about their nutritional value and how it works with us.
chinese still die from liver deseases .
I would like to see a vid on what an APOE4 carrier can do about it in terms of diet, exercise, etc.
Thank you for all your great work!
Dr. Gundry, I've read that people with migraines need to eliminate carbs. Can you elaborate on this...is it true or false. And what foods specifically do I need to eat more of. Thanks!
Thank you, sir, for the priceless information you (and other holistic doctors) continue to share.
You asked for a question; well, you being an MD, and besides the eating advice you give, sleeping well, minimal-stress and having a life-loving high spirit for a healthy life, I'd like to know if I may, what is your opinion on the MINIMAL physical activity one of my age or other, (I am 60 years old) should regularly do in order to keep optimal health? I don't mean athletic health but just normal optimal health. For example, I myself have made it a habit of taking contrast showers every morning and all year round; going for a 20 to 40 minutes walk two or three times a week. A brief but high intensity exercise two or three times a week, climbing between 11 to 20 stories of stairs, which get my heart going for a few minutes. And I also alternate between one-day doing push-ups and another doing pull-ups for five days of the week. In addition to eating only once a day, with a one-hour feeding window from Monday to Fridays. On weekends I let go and eat and do whatever. Now, to be honest, I feel that my practices are perfect (at least for me) and I'm even proud of it, however, not being a doctor I'm not so sure if this is as good as I think, maybe I'm overdoing things, or maybe it's not necessary; meaning that If I can get away with only do half of what I do and still be healthy, I'll more than welcome it!! I suppose and hope that many like me, (being rather lazy and reluctant to effort), will benefit from your professional views and advice. and therefore thank you in advance.
More on Crohn’s disease. for my teenager 🥺
I’d like to know about having children after 40. Is there any extra diet changes to add onto the Plant Paradox/Longevity Paradox to help get pregnant and have a healthy pregnancy and fetus?
Would love to see a podcast devoted solely to Alzheimer’s prevention. Especially for us APOE4 carries. Thanks for all you do!
check leading brain researchers: Dr. Purlmutter, Dr Datis Kharrazian, Dr Dale Bredesen (in reverse order). Absolutely NO sugar is primary, as they've related Alzheimers to blood sugar spikes. There's lots more - check out those guys, they're the best on that topic, imo (I have 'the gene', too). Here's a start: ruclips.net/video/NUh1fTLrebg/видео.html
I would like to hear more information about weight lifting and recommendations for gaining muscle for women. Are there different tactics when it comes to eating if you're looking to gain muscle? I've always been tiny, so I'm more interested in gaining muscle mass.
I have autoimmune diseases. For about 20 years I’ve had extreme muscle cramps. I can get them in both inner thighs at the same time and am in excruciating pain for about 1/2 hour. I get them in my lower legs and hands as well. I treat the pain with hot, wet towels. Nothing touches these cramps. I’ve tried magnesium of every kind, Quinine and Taurine. Since fine tuning my Keto diet with Omad , I’m suspecting the cramps were caused by lectins. Can you shed some light on this? I got absolutely no help from my rheumatologist or liver specialist. I am almost 68 and plan to live till I’m 120 years old!
Any specific recommendations for folks that have a sympathetic dominant autonomic nervous system?
Can ordinary canned beans be pressure cooked briefly to remove lectins ? Thanks doc !
Love your books Dr.Gundry( have all of them, some twice). I‘ve been Vegan since 6 months- have to say find it challenging to be „Gundry“ approved and Vegan. A Vegan recepe book would be great. Pls keep the vegan recipes coming! KR, Mary
Yes, I want to know how I can correct my eye vision back to 20/20 from 20/600 with astigmatism, naturally... I also want to know how I can get rid of cataracts naturally...
Does pressure cooking the legumes prevent gas?
Is there a strategy to include more animal protein and fats in the best way possible? Perhaps including organ meats to balance over consumption of some amino acids in muscle?
Hello Dr. Gundry. I am so excited to have discovered you and your research. I am still trying to figure it all out and how to accomplish a better eating plan for myself and my family. That said there are two things that would be really helpful: The first item is that although I know you did a short video regarding how to follow this plan on a budget, I am super strapped for cash so I am wondering if you could do another more in-depth video of budget options? I guess even if the budget options are not as good as the "real" top line organic options, it would be a way to start getting on track for us. The second item I am curious about is a bit off topic but I thought you might have some insight into it...fluoride. There seems to be SO much information on the internet that states fluoride is not needed and is even bad for us that I am struggling with whether to include it in our families oral care (2 young children 7 and 8). My family thinks I am nuts for even considering a dental regime that doesn't include fluoride but I have heard it messes with our hormones and other stuff. I am pretty much developing a healthy addiction to your videos and feel like finally something that makes sense is being revealed to us. My husband has had a ton of health issues and I remember him saying that he felt like something was attacking his nervous system. Now to hear how eating certain things is really digesting poisons that could attack our nervous systems is amazing. Anyway, I could go on and on but I have taken enough of your time. Thank you for your work, your time and everything.
Is sprouted mung beans healthy? How about wheat grass juice?
I don't know about the sprouted beans but the wheat grass juice is a no go!
Hi … Love your posts. I know you feel much better and look much better than peers your age . One question, have you ever tried natural ways of getting back hair pigmentation? I am currently trying molasses, olive oil, Fenugreek drops but I just started and too soon for any results. do you suggest anything ?
Hi Dock.
Just recently came across your channel.. Now subscribed, a wonderful library of researched, studied and trustworthy health information..
I WOULD GRATELEY APPRECIATE.
your views on the regular consumption of raw un processed organic dehulled COCAO - nuts and nibs. Many thanks for your great life saving work.. Blessings to you and family..
Dr Gundry you are great. I have a couple of questions. You mentioned in one of your videos that you shouldn’t ever need toilet paper and something about the leaky guts. Please tell me where I can get more info on that. Also, what is your recommendation and natural way to help with ED? Thank you.
Hi Dr Gundry, I am type 1 diabetic and I have purchased your book “plant paradox” I love it, good job. How can I have so much olive oil on your recommend recipes, since any oil prevents insulin to carry the sugar into cells. Please shed some light on this issue for some of us with diabetes’ curse. Thanks
What about soaked and peeled almonds? Thank you!
I take alot of supplements every day and wanted to ask what supplements work and what supplements are a waste of 💰 money.Also how many supplements should I take at a time? Can you take too many at once?
A lot of great changes discussed were the some of the problems I had with the plat to paradox diet. A big reason I gave it not much credit. Restricting legumes I knew to be ludicrous whereas restricting animal protein was really the right course of action. instant pot curried lentils have always been a staple for me. Happy to see the reassessment of priories:)
Hey Doc G
Keen to learn more about what we can do about neuropathay, specifically
TIA💪💪
Could have your books in digital form?
If we eat a lot of healthy fats and even go on Keto diet, what happens to our cholesterol levels?
In your book you mention Valter Longo a few times however there is a substantial discrepancy in reference to lectins as dr Longo adds a lot in his menus
Légume are bad. Longo doesn't know biochemistry.
All these tips seem to be vouching for weight loss, restricting calories and fasting. But what about those who are doing resistance training and are looking for weight and muscle gain?? Please elaborate.
