Dr. Steven Gundry is a world-renowned cardiologist who invented a device that's used in 90% of all heart operations across the world. Yet, a little over a decade ago, Dr. Gundry decided to stop doing surgery altogether, because he felt he could save more lives with nutrition that he put on the operating table. Since then, his nutritional philosophies have sparked a global phenomenon. He's the author of four New York Times best-selling books, including ‘The Plant Paradox’, which you've probably seen in the hands of celebrities like Kelly Clarkson and Alan Arkin (and that’s because this book just flat out works!)
