She did, however, acknowledge that Dr. Steven R. Gundry’s book The Plant Paradox was the main source of her motivation to alter her diet and way of life. “I read this book literally because I had an autoimmune condition and a thyroid problem, and now all of my numbers are back up,” she said at the time. I’m off medication now that I’ve read this book, The Plant Paradox. Basically, it’s about cooking non-GMO food without using pesticides, and eating a very organic diet. I haven’t worked out at all, really!
What is a plant paradox diet?
The basic idea of the Plant Paradox diet is that many long-term (chronic) health issues, such as obesity, chronic inflammation, and autoimmune disorders, are caused by lectins, a protein found in common foods. “Cuts out foods that contain lectins, like wheat, beans, potatoes, nuts, and dairy,” is how the Plant Paradox diet plan is typically described.
What foods fit into the plant paradox diet plan?
Followers of the Plant Paradox diet must avoid foods high in lectins, such as:
grains like wheat, rice, oats, corn, and quinoa; legumes such beans (including all soy), peas, lentils, and peanuts;
certain seeds and nuts, such as cashews, chia, sunflower, and pumpkin; cucumbers, zucchini, and squash;
veggies that are considered nightshades, like tomatoes, potatoes, peppers, and eggplant; most fruits, excluding seasonal berries and avocados; and dairy products manufactured from cows’ milk fed on grains
Only pasture-and grass-fed meat, fish, leafy greens, broccoli, cauliflower, brussels sprouts, and coconut and olive oils can be consumed when following the plant paradox diet.
Gave up packaged food
Clarkson had to give up a lot of packaged and processed foods in order to follow the Plant Paradox diet. Processed food elimination lowers sugar intake, lowers calorie intake, and aids in weight loss. For most people, that step alone might be a successful course of action.
Quality of food improved
During her visit on “Today Show,” Clarkson said that it also enabled her to better comprehend the quality of the food she was consuming. The 41-year-old mother of four stated, “It’s about understanding food and what we do to food, like spraying and pesticides and genetically modified and hormones we pump in.”
