Publisher's summary

Has your doctor lied to you?

Eat low-fat and high-carb, including plenty of “healthy” whole grains - does that sound familiar? Perhaps, this is what you were told at your last doctor’s appointment or visit with a nutritionist, or perhaps, it is something you read online when searching for a healthy diet. And maybe, you’ve been misled. Dr. Ken Berry is here to dispel the myths and misinformation that have been perpetuated by the medical and food industries for decades.

This updated and expanded edition of Dr. Berry’s best seller Lies My Doctor Told Me exposes the truth behind all kinds of “lies” told by well-meaning but misinformed medical practitioners. Nutritional therapy is often overlooked in medical school, and the information provided to physicians is often outdated. However, the negative consequences on your health remain the same. Advice to avoid healthy fats and stay out of the sun has been proven to be detrimental to longevity and can wreak havoc on your system.

In this audiobook, Dr. Berry will enlighten you about nutrition and life choices, their role in our health, and how to begin an educated conversation with your doctor about finding the right path for you.

This book will teach you:

  • Facts doctors are taught to think about nutrition and other preventative health measures and how they should be thinking
  • Story of how the food pyramid and MyPlate came into existence and why they should change
  • Facts about fat intake and heart health
  • Truth about the effects of whole wheat on the human body
  • Role of dairy in your diet
  • Truth about salt - friend or foe?
  • Dangers and benefits of hormone therapy
  • New information about inflammation and how it should be viewed by doctors

Come out of the darkness and let Ken Berry be your guide to optimal health and harmony!

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Weak Narrator

Love the book but the narrator was lacking... I wish Dr. Berry would have narrated it himself.

Excellent Book

Awesome Read. Great information in easy language. Every medical professional person should read and question their own understanding of the things they practice. Dr. Berry does an amazing job uncovering some REAL truths in order to really help not only himself but his patients and thousands of others who blindly believed "doctors knew all". They don't and this book helps shine some truths on a few of those areas that more science and research should been taught in medical schools.

I love Dr. Ken Berry!

I’ve listened to Ken Berry on several podcasts, which is how I found out about his book. I enjoyed this book’s content, humor, and simplified debunking of common medical myths. However, I wish Dr. Berry had read it himself. My only criticism is that the monotone voice used took away from the listening experience. However, I’d still recommend this book to everyone I care about.

A Must Read for Everyone

I wish Dr. Berry was local. He breaks through all the lies and tells you like it is. I’ve been listening to his YouTube videos for years and always found them to be excellent, this book is the same. We have to realize we live in a place where big money influences our docs, the FDA, the American Heart Association, and especially big Agriculture. Be smart, question things and be vigilant every day of your life. Thank you Dr. Berry.

Must Read

This should be required reading for all humans - especially those in the medical field. I truly believe this man and his message will be proved true in the decades that follow as more and more of us wake up and the corporate interests that profit on our illnesses can no longer hide, bury, lie, and otherwise conceal the truth about what is making us perpetually sick. The simple answer to the majority of our ailments is to treat our human body as it was created and designed to be treated and that includes feeding it the ancestrally appropriate fuel (diet) instead of subjecting it to the perpetual corporate chemistry experiment that is our modern day Frankenstein diet and the plethora of new pharmaceutical concoctions designed to mask but not cure our symptoms, at the very best.

Good Source of Info

A thoughtful book on various misbeliefs currently percolating throughout society. It’s a good primer with references to other sources for deeper study.

good book lots of interesting information that is potentially very useful. some of it was stuff I knew very well but many things were surprising. it's shocking how poorly the medical field is at evidence-based medicine.
