I don’t believe he is wrong. I feel better when I don’t eat excessive plant protein. I don’t eat inflammatory foods. Most of what ailed me when I did is gone.

He has a recipe book. I want to start his diet as doctoradvised.
Waiting for my life situation to calm down to try it.
Good luck
I think an instant pot will help with the beans etc. The cook ing method decreases the lectins

Eat real, unprocessed good. His good list has some absolute garbage in it . Guess he’s selling stuff too. BUT inflammatory ailments CAN be helped by eating real food, the less processed the better. Keep it simple. You’ll feel so good that you won’t care exactly what you’re eating or if you’re bored. I used to take 3200 mg Advil daily proactively. Now, maybe four in six months for a headache.

No, I don’t do Gundry specifically but I also don’t eat most of what he talks about. So I feel like I can say keep it simple, eat real food, avoid the lectins and feel better.

Not OP, but if anyone is doing this diet or similar can they give a sample diet, what they eat for breakfast lunch and supper and snacks, that you can buy in regular supermarkets?

BUMP

Not op, but.. has anyone seen changes in the way they feel, and blood and other tests, after being on this diet?

If anyone is doing this diet or similar can they give a sample diet, what they eat for breakfast lunch and supper and snacks, that you can buy in regular supermarkets, or is it a major hassle to be on this diet, because you cant be on it with foods from regular supermarkets?

I did this with my husband for a while. Not perfectly but we tried. Lots of green smoothies, microwave muffins from the Gundry cookbook, no beans or lentils, started using cassava flour, etc. We both felt great and my husband in particular saw dramatic relief from some gastrointestinal issues he was having. Unfortunately we moved and have been unable to keep it up ingredient-wise or food prep wise… we both wish we could go back to it.

It might be important to note that I had been trying keto for about a year before finding Gundry, and failing pretty miserably to thrive within those guidelines—I was always hungry and lightheaded.

I don’t remember it being that hard to source the ingredients when we lived in the US. Maybe not everything could be gotten in any supermarket but with health food stores it was possible. Maybe expensive (coconut yogurt, we also bought prechecked greens pretty often to make things easier, etc.) but possible. Now where we live it’s just too hard to keep up. A few times we made our own coconut yogurt using coconut cream and probiotics, but it’s just been too many steps and too iffy to maintain (we also have a bunch of little kids and lots of other things going on). If I could, I would eat straight Gundry. I know I’d feel great, and my husband feels the same.

Im not OP.

I have a question.

Im a fan of Carrot Juice. I looked up Dr Gundry's "YES" foods and I see carrots among them, but theres no mention of carrot juice. Is 'carrot juice" a "NO" food?

According to what I've read in his book, Gundry only likes carrots raw not cooked. If you would make the carrot juice yourself it would probably be okay. He is not a fan of juices bec they always have added sugars.
