Abstract

Gundry has long endorsed the ketogenic diet and believed his patients' efforts to adhere to the challenging regimen was worthwhile. Then his research uncovered a shocking truth: We've gotten keto all wrong. Over the long term, a very low carb-diet can lead to muscle wasting and poor cognitive health. You have to have enough ketones and other plant compounds called polyphenols present in your body to unlock the process of mitochondrial uncoupling. Gundry shows readers how to ignite this process, from feasting on plant-based foods to enjoying ketone generating foods such as goat and sheep milk products, to implementing a timed eating schedule. He makes going keto easy and enjoyable for the first time. -- adapted from jacket
