Story
In 1857, a woman escaped enslavement on a North Carolina plantation and fled to a farm in New York. In hiding, she worked on a manuscript that would make her famous long after her death. The novel, The Bondwoman’s Narrative, was first published in 2002 to great acclaim, but the author’s identity remained unknown. Over a decade later, Professor Gregg Hecimovich unraveled the mystery of the author’s name and, in The Life and Times of Hannah Crafts, he finally tells her story.

Sales is a skill anyone can learn and master - and introverts are especially good at it once they learn how to leverage their natural strengths. Introverts aren't comfortable with traditional tactics like aggressively pushing a product or talking over a customer's objections. That's the beauty of The Introvert's Edge: it doesn't focus on the sale itself but on a sales system that helps introverts feel sincere instead of sales-y.

Miss Marple encounters a compelling murder mystery in the sleepy little village of St. Mary Mead, where under the seemingly peaceful exterior of an English country village lurks intrigue, guilt, deception and death. Colonel Protheroe, local magistrate and overbearing land-owner is the most detested man in the village. Everyone—even in the vicar—wishes he were dead. And very soon he is—shot in the head in the vicar's own study. Faced with a surfeit of suspects, only the inscrutable Miss Marple can unravel the tangled web of clues that will lead to the unmasking of the killer.

Publisher's Summary
"I read this book...it worked. My autoimmune disease is gone, and I'm 37 pounds lighter in my pleather." (Kelly Clarkson)
Most of us have heard of gluten - a protein found in wheat that causes widespread inflammation in the body. Americans spend billions of dollars on gluten-free diets in an effort to protect their health. But what if we’ve been missing the root of the problem? In The Plant Paradox, renowned cardiologist Dr. Steven Gundry reveals that gluten is just one variety of a common, and highly toxic, plant-based protein called lectin. Lectins are found not only in grains like wheat but also in the “gluten-free” foods most of us commonly regard as healthy, including many fruits, vegetables, nuts, beans, and conventional dairy products. These proteins, which are found in the seeds, grains, skins, rinds, and leaves of plants, are designed by nature to protect them from predators (including humans). Once ingested, they incite a kind of chemical warfare in our bodies, causing inflammatory reactions that can lead to weight gain and serious health conditions.
At his waitlist-only clinics in California, Dr. Gundry has successfully treated tens of thousands of patients suffering from autoimmune disorders, diabetes, leaky gut syndrome, heart disease, and neurodegenerative diseases with a protocol that detoxes the cells, repairs the gut, and nourishes the body. Now, in The Plant Paradox, he shares this clinically proven program with listeners around the world.
The simple (and daunting) fact is, lectins are everywhere. Thankfully, Dr. Gundry offers simple hacks we easily can employ to avoid them, including:
- Peel your veggies. Most of the lectins are contained in the skin and seeds of plants; simply peeling and de-seeding vegetables (like tomatoes and peppers) reduces their lectin content.
- Shop for fruit in season. Fruit contain fewer lectins when ripe, so eating apples, berries, and other lectin-containing fruits at the peak of ripeness helps minimize your lectin consumption.
- Swap your brown rice for white. Whole grains and seeds with hard outer coatings are designed by nature to cause digestive distress - and are full of lectins.
With a full list of lectin-containing foods and simple substitutes for each, a step-by-step detox and eating plan, and delicious lectin-free recipes, The Plant Paradox illuminates the hidden dangers lurking in your salad bowl - and shows you how to eat whole foods in a whole new way.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Grrrr I love and hate Dr. Gundry
Are you gonna take the Red pill or the Blue pill? I took the Red (ref The Matrix movie)......I love Dr. Gundry because he speaks truth backed by science and facts and my Gut literally tells me to trust him - I hate him because he has forced me to open my eyes and now I can't close them anymore...my friends and family are probably sick of me trying to share some intel cuz life was so much "simpler" when I didn't know...now I think twice before eating so many things and essentially learning how to eat again/how to prepare things so I take care of my gut. Guess what though....it is worth it. It is worth it to go on the hunt for Jicama and google what endives are and wth is cassava flower???...etc etc yet I feel drawn to what he says.....call it a Gut Feeling....if you listen you'll know what I mean by that ;) The gut is fascinating and I found so much of what Dr. G said so interesting and it makes so much sense.

Shocking!!!
Unhealthy health food……what??? As a certified trainer I have attended many health and fitness seminars/conferences and read many books and articles over the years. I assumed that I knew what and how to eat healthy. This book has kicked me in the gut very hard….it’s shocking. Poisonous plant proteins…. say what??
Thank you Dr Gundry. Life changing information.
Here’s to starting from scratch on my new lifelong eating habits.

Interesting read
I wasn't sure exactly what this book would be like. I found it to be very interesting and informative. The author is the narrator. There is a lot of information in this book. I found myself stopping and rewinding a few times. I alos liked the PDF enhancement a great addition to the purchase. There a too many things to note without it. I found this a great 'read' on a recent 9 hour car drive. Recommend this heartily.
