Publisher's summary

The author of the bestselling Plant Paradox series takes a fresh look at one of the top health issues plaguing Americans—fatigue—and offers a revolutionary plan for boosting energy and revitalizing mental and physical stamina.

In his bestselling books, The Plant Paradox and The Longevity Paradox, Dr. Steven R. Gundry offered game-changing perspectives on our wellbeing. In The Energy Paradox, Dr. Gundry expands upon his previous discussions of gut, microbiome, and mitochondrial health, linking immune malfunction to the mental and physical symptoms of fatigue—including exhaustion, brain fog, depression, anxiety, and low metabolism.

As Dr. Gundry explains, feeling tired, moody, and zapped of energy is not normal, no matter your workload or age. Fatigue is an SOS flare from the body, one that is intended to alert us that something is wrong. In his clinical work, Dr. Gundry has found that his patients who complain of feeling sick and tired all the time almost always have something in common: the inflammation markers of a leaky gut.

In The Energy Paradox, Dr. Gundry will offer listeners the information and tools necessary to quiet the autoimmune battle raging within—a battle that depletes precious energy reserves, leaving you drained and prone to mood disorders and weight gain. With new guidelines on how to increase mitochondrial energy production and nourish the microbiome, 30 new Plant Paradox-approved recipes, and lists of energy-boosting foods to consume and energy-depleting foods to avoid, The Energy Paradox will help listeners take back their lives, giving them the energy they need to feel, look, and be their best.

Supplemental enhancement PDF accompanies the audiobook.

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

Excellent book!

This book has such great and useful information. Dr. Gundry presents it in a way that is very understandable for a non medical person. The fact that he is 73 years old and is as sharp and active as he is, tells me he knows something about health. I would, and have recommended this book to others.

Overly technical BUT very good information

This was solid book with some great information, requires paying attention to get the most out of it as it gets technical and sometime overly deep into the medical system of the gut. Good book, good info, glad I bought it.

This book changed my life

By following the advice in this book I was able to heal my leaky gut and stop taking prescription acid reducers and IBS medication. And I regained the energy levels I had before I started taking AFIB medication. Thank you, Dr Gundry.

Very good dietary information

There is so much information to learn it can be overwhelming. You need to listen to it more than once. I started supplementing my micro biome while listening and adding prebiotics and probiotics to my diet that I was changing. I feel better, less joint pains in knees and hips and I know I’m losing weight. It’s challenging to start, but I’m keeping it up.

The read deal

You learn so much about how your body works and what works for your body .... saw results in the first 3 months even though this is not a “weight loss” book I did end up shedding 25lbs what I believe was my gut telling me I needed.

Life Critical Energy

Well written in layman's terms. Understandable even though I haven't read his other books. The only change I have made so far is taking the 8 must have energy supplements from the list. He has labeled G8 felt energy increases each morning day 2 through 6. I also added 30 mg of melatonin.
