The INSANE DIET & NUTRITION Guide To Ending Inflammation & REVERSE AGING | Dr. Steven Gundry 

WARNING: I will never ask for your contact info in the comments section, that is someone impersonating me!

I am Italian, born and raised in Sicily until the age of 28, then l moved to the US. It is true that we put olive oil in pretty much everything. Every soup has a drizzle of EVOO, unless it is a meat based soup. I have to disagree on the tomato peel and seeds. I grew up watching my mom make tomato sauce from fresh tomatoes. The very reason why we peel tomatoes ( by scalding) is because the peel is often too thick and not appealing in the final product. I recall that whole tomatoes would be prepared for canning by first peeling them and then placing them in a huge kettle. They would be cooked and seasoned before canning, seeds would stay. For tomato sauce, we had to use a strainer with the purpose of making a pulp, not to remove the seeds, but because of the process, the seeds remained inside the mechanical strainer, we did not have Vitamix back then lol. I am pretty sure that if the peel and seeds were bad for our health, we Italians would know about it. We eat whole tomatoes in our salads as well. After watching the video, I researched lectins and found that many of the studies are in vitro, not on people. But also found that several Italian scientists and doctors reassure us that lectins are rendered innocuous by the cooking process. In addition, you would have to eat very large quantities of lectins containing vegetables or fruits in order to cause damage. We also eat lentils, beans ( fagioli), which Gundry has pretty much black listed, i never heard these were bad for us. We have been eating them for thousands of years. I am always puzzled by the sensationalized fads that come out of the US. Extreme views that work well in capturing the attention of the masses. They usually work well for the sale of supplements and books. Update: This gastroenterologist proves my points, please watch what he has to say about the lectins fad diet. Dr. Will Bulsiewicz reassures us that lectins are not bad for us, actually foods such as legumes (deemed bad by Dr. Gundry) will help you loose weight, lower your blood pressure, cut colon cancer risk.

Here are some key takeaways: -Leaky gut is a major underlying cause of many health issues like autoimmune diseases, joint pain, brain fog, fatigue, etc. It allows foreign substances to enter the bloodstream and trigger inflammation. -Lectins in foods like beans, grains, and nightshades can damage the gut lining and cause leaky gut. Cooking and preparation methods can reduce lectins. -The gut microbiome heavily influences health and longevity. An imbalanced microbiome promotes leaky gut. Fecal transplants can help restore a healthy microbiome. -Mitochondria produce energy and ketones help mitochondria become more efficient and protect themselves from damage during starvation. -Olive oil, mushrooms, inulin, resistant starches feed good gut bacteria. Exercise and yoga also help the microbiome. -Time restricted eating, intermittent fasting, and avoiding late night meals give the body downtime to repair the gut. -Getting adequate vitamin D, vitamin C, and consuming olive oil, mushrooms, and other polyphenols support health and longevity. -The brain undergoes a "wash cycle" during deep sleep which removes toxins. Getting adequate sleep, especially early in the night, supports this. - Cholesterol and heart disease can be caused by an autoimmune reaction, not just too much cholesterol intake. - Ketones signal to mitochondria to become inefficient on purpose as a protective mechanism during starvation. - The gut-brain connection is very important. Leaky gut can lead to leaky brain and neuroinflammation. - Women's intuition and "gut feelings" may stem from their strong connection to their gut microbiome. - Eating for your microbiome, rather than just yourself, is an important perspective. Feed the bugs prebiotics.

The diet that is best for any given individual is directly correlated with the health of their microbiome and what sort of diet is necessary to shift that microbiome. This is why people do really well on different diets. One diet is a disaster for one person and healing for the other. It's all about what is going on in the microbiome. This is why I always get annoyed by medical professionals that say there's only one right way to eat.

Heating lectins in a pressure cooker on high heat for 15 minutes can destroy many of them - can be used on beans, tomatoes, peppers, eggplant, rice, potatoes, squash, peas, lentils, etc. Rice and potatoes can also be frozen for 12 hours and then reheated to reduce insulin response via resistant starch created from freezing. So there are controls to reduce issues for lectins, insulin response, etc.

As a Cypriot who was raised on olive oil (as a kid I'd bite the olive and spread the pulp onto my bread) I use the best olive oil for everything including scrambling eggs. I add oil and lemon juice to poached eggs along with salt and pepper. We eat whole tomatoes too and cook eggplants with the skin. The Mediterranean diet is exceedingly healthy. The problem with today is that few people cook from scratch and use fresh produce.

I feel like I might’ve commented on this video, but I don’t know about vegetables, killing you, but I know that they caused me great inflammation, and it went away when I stopped eating them. I went on the elimination diet of carnivore, and I have healed in more ways than I can even count. I will be 65 in August and I have never felt better.

I am carnivore and I feel great everyday. For 1 year and I will do it lifetime.

This guy has been behind the healing of my gut, my mother's chronic illness and my sister in law's autoimmune disease. My family owes you alot Dr Gundry. Thank you for your legacy.

The problem with the format of this show is that it’s just a collection of someone’s opinions without any discourse or push back, the opinions may be that of those who are educated and experienced and have worked in any given field for years BUT this doesn’t allow to questioning and holding their message up to the light. Every single episode the host just sits and agrees and acts amazed at everything that’s said. There are lots of conflicting information between guests and it will be leading to people just jumping on the message of which ever was the last episode they watched. One example here is the “brains are getting smaller after agriculture” comment, this is ignore the swathes of data to show that brain size doesn’t necessarily correlate with intelligence and in fact brain “efficiency” is the reason for our brains having shrunk. Not a good format I’m afraid.

The common factor uniting blue zone residents is a low stress lifestyle.

I'm only halfway through this as I comment, but man this video is dense! I put this on while at work and I need to go back to the beginning at home and take notes. There's so much to take away from this video!!

Eat what works best for your body. Everyone’s body is different. The centenarians living to be over 100. Sardinia. They eat meats, vegetables, cheese, pasta, and wine. It’s their lifestyle more than anything surrounded by loved ones and stress free.

The issue I have with Gundry is that he seems to tailor his narrative to fit the belief of whoever is interviewing him - ALL the way from Vegan to Carnivore!

This was an AWESOME interview!!❤Thank you Tom and Dr. Gundry!!

I would be interested in seeing Dr. Gundry record everything he eats in a single month so as to get a better understanding of what his typical daily intake is.

Very rarely do I eat beans these days. But when I do eat beans, I always open the can first. I think this helps digestion.

Have mastered my health thanks to u, thank you for all u do and the amazing guests u bring

Hey, Tom! Thank you for this interview. I've listened to Dr. Gundry in the past, but it's great to hear him again and learn some new things. I really appreciate that you allowed him to speak at length without interruptions. In some of your other programs, I get tired of your guests getting interrupted all the time. I'd like to hear the guest finish his sentence before you jump in. But that's just me, I still appreciate all the interesting topics that have been covered.

Gundry's book "The Plant Paradox" is one of the most interesting nutrition books I have ever read. I highly recommend it.

So much GREAT information! Great questions!

Tom, this is one of your best podcasts! So good!!!

Interesting comment about the A2 milk. I can now drink milk again the last 2 1/2 to 3 months. For years I’ve tried on and off at times to have regular milk and would be running for the restroom. I finally tried the A2 milk I’m having no problems with it. It is more expensive, but I make Greek yogurt from it and Kiefer.

I'm not sure about Gundry 🤔 something seems off, but I'm interested to know if anyone else rates his work though?

Fantastic information. Ty for sharing your knowledge in ways we all can understand. What an amazing creation the human body is. ❤

It's so crazy how I was taught "breakfast is the most important meal of the day!" Or it's better to eat 6 small meals to keep your metabolism up......well I was doing those things (eating wrong my entire life) and guess what!! .... It lead me to obesity, depression, high blood pressure, insulin resistance along with numerous other health issues. My PCP was NO help, she laughed and said she's overweight too. I decided I am my own health advocate and with Doctors like Dr Steven Gundry spreading information that works I am learning how to heal myself from in the Inside Out!!! Again thank you for your wealth of knowledge 🙏 💜😊

This is the most important video ive ever seen on your channel ❤ GREAT JOB AND THank you for doing this !! I shared out everywhere i could !!

I am just in the middle of this discussion and I am so thankful to get to hear all this valuable information that I can incorporate into my healthy lifestyle. Thank you for continuing to evolve and keep us informed along the way!

I discovered your channel a little while ago, I'm learning and evolving, thank you. 🇧🇷💫

What a great repository of information. I love how the interviews were combined and overlapped a bit. It solidified Dr. Gundry’s talking points. Thank you for compiling.

Wow! I think I will watch this 5 or 6 times over the next few days because it is soooo jam packed with important and helpful information for me personally. Thank you so much!

I love Dr Gundry he shared all of us very informative way of eating the right food to live longer staying healthy.

I had the itches a couple weeks ago. Like my whole body itched. I was having some sort of systemic allergic reaction, but there was no rash. I had eaten some cheese I had never eaten before.

I learned so much from Dr Gundry.. Thank You Dr Gundry

Thanks for caring for us, Dr. Gundi.❤

Amazing video! There's lots to learn from! Thank you Dr. Gundry and Tom Bilyeu. God bless!

This is a great interview! So, thanks a lot. I learned a lot about my gut; we should pay attention what we put in. It all made sense! Thank you, Dr Gundry.

thank you thank you, love all this info in this collection. wonderful to not see ego clashing in the way, as well.

This was a great interview and so informative thank you 😊

Hey thanks for that input regarding lectins baba. What a relief. Just cook them longer. So not everything Dr Gundry says is necessarily helpful. Didn't he also say that the longest lived people/bluezones don't eat much red meat. Well I know that in Okinawa (a blue zone) they raise their own pigs and they are not PETS and eat lots of meat and seafood. Also Hong Kong eats the most meat in the world and as well has the longest lived people in the entire world. So he kind of blew it. However I will be forever greatful to Dr Gundry for his accurate claim in the Circulation Journal that the jabs were causing serious heart disease eg myocarditis etc.

Now that I know much more of everything, it's funny to follow our little son, how and how often he wants to eat. Basically the natural rhythm for him seems to be every second day he eats a lot and then on the next day, very little, just a little bit of here and there unless it's the best food that he likes. Seems like our body is, in it's natural state, doing a fasting cycle almost automatically.

Wow. This is great. Thank you!

This was an wow wow video for me. So much great information. Thank you!

Keep in mind, he’s talking about UNCOOKED beans. This is a crucial point. Cooking removes lectins and allows us to benefit from the nutritional elements that plants are trying to protect.

Last time I went to an herbal training in Italy, we doused everything we ate in olive oil and I lost 10 pounds. I'm here again for another training and have already lost 7 pounds. I attribute that to the olive oil.

I'm appreciative of what Dr gundry had to say about the Apo e-4 Gene and testing. It may explain my myriad of sensitivities I've had now for many years along with the body and brain tiredness. I realize from his explanations that I'm having trouble fasting - even intermittent fasting most likely due to insulin sensitivity. I'm hrateful his willingness to share and Tom's great questions.

I'm saving this video, and kept coming back to this, Thank you!

The info on ketone metabolism and mitochondria physiology is gold, even for me a metabolic Dr

I am interested on microbiome in the gut to addres my health issues. I am learning a lot from this man and this episode. All I can say is to Thank you. I have so much takeaways... More power to both of you.

So much useful information!!

I love Dr Gundrys stories and explanations! He is a wealth of information

I really enjoy your talks, Tom! I'm often on my stepper listening. Thanks for all you do!! I'm studying Wim How now because of your talk with him. As for this talk, I too feel it was a bit too long, just sayin. If you haven't ever sat with Dr. John McDougall or Dan Buettner, would you please consider them next??? Loved your talk with Dr. Jason Fung too! I'm reading his book now (after your talk; I'm about 1/2 way in) but I feel drawn still to McDougall and Buettner, more. We'll see where I land. Wishing you good health, always!

I think you should try to host a friendly debate or discussion between Gundry and one of the carnivore doctors like Shawn Baker or Anthony Chaffee. I know Gundry has had on Saladino on his podcast but i would be interested to hear him discuss with one of those i mentioned

Thank you for thos video. This is life changing.

Hello from Charlotte, NC. Thank you for sharing your wonderful knowledge with the public. I am learning so much from your podcasts.

Overall I feel we were given everything we need to survive on this earth. Not processed or made by humans but here naturally for us to enjoy and thrive. We’ve now of course ruined our soil, our water our air… which has in turn seriously compromised our food supply.

Thank you so much for this interview ! absolutely life changing info and your questions were great ! STay healthy and strong

Thanks for the info!

The info on ketone metabolism and mitochondria physiology is gold, even for me a metabolic physician.

This compilation of dr Gundry is spectacular. I'm at awe of the amount of condensed information in 3 hours. I need to watch this a couple more times and take notes.

While I wholeheartedly agree that what we eat is reflected by the health (or lack thereof) of our skin, I cannot figure out how a friend who is 100 lbs overweight that eats literal garbage crap every meal (processed foods, candy, cake, soda, etc.) has the best skin out of all my friends in their upper 50's. She's not the only anomaly out there.

The most valuable commodity on earth is knowledge. This knowledge, Dr.Gundry's advice, is a serious treasure.

1:33:55 - TB: "...once I understand it, I dunno, there's something that happens in my brain I can really get behind it." We call that learning, Tom.

I wish there was a complete list of what we can eat and what we cannot. That would be much easier to guide us.

Many people need to project their own misery on others….keep doing you and being the best version of you you can be! ❤

Great interview

Oh my goodness! We’re in the same situation! All of a sudden I’ve been itching like crazy that it irritates me inside and out! I ate very healthy diet too, I swear I thought they put something on the air/environment for us to be this way then we will buy products to fix it! It’s cause and effect cycle but that’s just how my angry self thinks, it could be because we are aging and our body is sensitive and susceptible to everything! I swear, even my cast iron pan cause me to itch like crazy so we stop using it. But still I’m itching but not as bad. I’ve been desperate and irritable and I finally said ok I may have leaky gut. Long story short I ordered Dr Gundry’s leaky gut product and I got it yesterday! So far so great, I did not have itching and flare ups so far wooohooo what a miracle! I’m very very happy! Today is day two so hopefully it will keep it that way for the rest of my life!

A few years ago he told people to not eat vegetables due to lectins. Now he is totally changing his story. I'll never be his patient or believe anything he says.

I really appreciate your videos. I am a fan of Dr Gundry. He’s very knowledgeable and incite full of educated information which he shares with the public. Thank you both for giving us such great information and hope for our future healthy lives. The hospital where Dr Gundry works saved my life from a horrific accident. The Seventh Day Adventist Hospital is very close to my heart ♥️

It may be a long discussion but very useful and much better than watching TV or news channels full of negative stuff.

Great information here, very much appreciated. When I was trying to give it the thumbs-up, I accidentally hit thumbs-down, but hopefully I fixed it! Especially since the insight about what is actually beneficial to health is so eye-opening.

When in Europe, I learned they don’t eat corn…”Corn is for our pigs!” 😂

Amazing how many experts there are in the comments. We are blessed.

A very interesting talk!!

Excellent thank you 🙏

Thank you so much, this wealth of information is incredible!

i"m confused. What can I eat besides olive oil?

Thank you!

Excellent video.

This is so interesting. I was diagnosed 30 years ago with fibromyalgia. I am dairy intolerant, gluten intolerant. Hard beans etc give me awful stomach cramps and wind as does cabbage gives me wind. The only drug I have been on is one for anxiety, Citalopram and this seems to keep me very level. I eat gf sourdough toast every morning with avocado & pnut butter and qtr banana. Then eat dinner, usually no lunch. So good to hear this information. Thanks heaps. In NZ and have free range chickens, grass fed lamb. Big difference to USA

I wish people with incredible information like this could learn how to speak more efficiently. Tom, keep them on task and encourage them to keep it simple and direct

I always watch your videos and just noticed I wasn’t subscribed 😭😂. Nonetheless , another great interview!! Love learning through these podcasts !

Thank you Dr Gundry🙏

Many thanks for this great discussion with Dr Gundry. I will now begin to update my meals to follow what I had learnt from here. I am lucky wrt fasting. As I was far too lazy to pack lunch or to prepare and have breakfast, I was doing one meal a day (early dinner). 12 months into this eating regime, I had gone from 85kgs (189 lbs) to 74kgs (163 lbs). My goal is to reach 70kg (155 lbs).

Dr. Steven fly over the second life expectancy on the World after Japan, Spain (a big "blue area", my grand mother, grand aunt,... dies at 95-98 years old), and yes, in Spain the fish Omega 3, coffee, and the Manchego sheep cheese are common

This is so good. It goes on and on and on but my mind is just awed!! because it's information I've never heard of before so amazing. I want the book and have to find its title. I did buy Dr Gundrys delicious olive oil from Morocco. Thank you.❤

Dr. Gundry is a God send, exposing the corrupt food industry

Amazing story James!! Inspiring. Sorry for your losses but nothing better than the dream you’re living. I’ve had this same dream of hitting the road. Your story has inspired me even more.

This is so incredibly informative!!!!! I literally just discovered intermittent fasting and I LOVE the benefits.... my severe brain fog & depression both lifted!!l Also, I struggled from having very low energy and now I feel great! Even my sleep is better. I am currently doing that along w keto, but I will be incorporating the information from this video because I am eating protein and green leafy veggies. I will be getting Dr. Steven's book too! Thank you for the information! 😊

My life long gratitude goes out to Dr. Steven Gundry for making me aware of Lectins and olive oil about 4 years ago. I had severe back pain which landed me in hospital unable to walk. They could not find the cause and called in the shrink who had shrunken tiny pupils in a dark room. Since then I stopped eating most of my favorite foods like tomatoes, potatoes, pizza, beans and peanuts... Now I have only mild back pain for the past year+ and decreasing monthly... For all of you who may be confused by all the contradictory information on nutrition...Listen closely to Dr. Gundry. You won''t go far wrong.

that is so true that my French mother always peeled and took away the seeds of her tomatoes. As for the bonnet peppers, many Africans just squeeze the juice in their boiling sauce but also do not eat the skin and seeds.

I don't understand why people get ill with ANYTHING. I'm 73 years old and I have not had a cold, the flu, or even a headache since as far back as I can remember... probably areound the age of 15 when I actually had a headache in school... which I now attribute to a stuffy school room because when I left to go home, the headache eased. I have been on the ketogenic diet since BEFORE it ever became popular... most of my life and part of my teens... and I never have any problem with weight nor with illness at all. I've never had health insurance because I find that I don't need it. At the age of 15 I studied botany and herbalism, so if I ever find that I get ill in the future, I'll most likely use herbs to help with that but so far I have not even needed herbs of any kind.

Oh my! You've made me wonder about a solution to my own medical problem. I feel so tired all the time these days and gradually lately I'm even having trouble walking I'm so weak. Yes I've had all kinds of tests with no solution. But but but, I eat two huge peanut butter jelly sandwiches at some point every day of my life, with at least 4-5 tablespoons of peanut butter piled on them. After watching your video, I'm going to try to stop my peanut butter addiction and see if that is what's causing such inflammation in my muscles and joints. It's the only food that I have consistently every day. Other foods vary daily. I'm almost 80 and have had a peanut butter jelly sandwich every day of my life. duh? I'm also obese.

Thank you dr.G! You are so wonderful 😊😊😊❤

I want to get the audible book. So no interruptions. Amazing interview

Am listening to Dr Gundry four months late but the knowledge I obtained today is incredible. I started on a diet four days ago am skinny 5’5’ tall 128 lbs so I have no weight to loose but my blood pressure and cholesterol was out of control so I put myself on a plant base low meat diet. Thanks for the information Dr Gundry.

Vegetables are definitely not causing me problems, and I'm epileptic. Veganism, gluten-free, and dairy-free, and treating my microbiome using my own methods have helped me free myself of the problems I faced for years. This guy looks disturbingly like my doctor. I'm going to ask my doc if he's watching me. lol. Hi Tom. Er Doc.

Thanks!!!

Ever grateful ....Thank U ❤
