What if I told you the secret to burning fat is eating MORE?
Turns out, one delicious food is shown to help “force” your body to turn FAT into ENERGY.
This food also helps build strong muscles, joints, and bones — at virtually any age.
It supports a sharp mind — well into your “senior” years…
It can even improve the look of your skin, and help protect your heart.
I’m talking about PROTEIN…
But not just any protein.
Because eating the WRONG protein can actually lead to weight GAIN…
Along with heart disease and the REALLY bad health issues we all strive to avoid.
If you feel heavy, creaky, tired, and all-around OLD…
I’d be willing to bet you’ve been TRICKED into eating the WRONG protein.
You see, about 30 years ago, big companies made a sneaky change to our food supply.
It’s making THEM a ton of money…
But it’s likely making YOU feel worse — despite eating the “health foods” you’re told to.
Today, experts from top universities like Harvard, UCLA, and USC are finally blowing the whistle on the big PROTEIN LIE that’s keeping Americans fat and sick.
Now, I’m NOT here to tell you to give up meat.
In fact, you’re about to learn why some meat is actually HEALTHIER than certain vegetables.
If you want a slimmer waistline, stronger muscles, and a significant energy boost…
I want you to try one simple protein “hack” today.
It’s a big part of the reason I was able to go from looking like THIS…
To looking like THIS.
It’s actually one of the first recommendations I make to my patients.
In fact, I now have more than 7,000 people using this protein hack every day.
They often write me excited emails saying they feel slimmer and more energetic.
And don’t worry, this doesn’t require some restrictive diet.
It involves “swapping” one bland, HARMFUL protein — which most people eat every day…
For a protein-rich superfood that’s SO delicious, you might consider it “junk food.”
When you make this swap, I can assure you you’ll enjoy your diet MORE…
And you’ll be AMAZED at what it does to your body.
my name is Dr. Steven Gundry, and I’m a cardiothoracic surgeon and double New York Times bestselling author and nutritionist, with medical practices in Palm Springs and Santa Barbara, California.
I graduated with honors from Yale University, and received my medical doctorate from the Medical College of Georgia.
I spent sixteen years as a Professor of Surgery and Pediatrics and Chairman of Cardiothoracic Surgery at the world famous Loma Linda University School of Medicine.
Along with my former partner, Leonard Bailey, I’ve performed more infant and pediatric heart transplants than any other doctor in the world.
I’m the inventor of the “Gundry Retrograde Cardioplegia Cannula,” one of the most widely used devices to keep the human heart alive during open-heart surgery.
I was one of the original 20 surgeons who tested the world’s first artificial heart, and one of the first to use robots in surgery.
I’ve seen thousands of patients with a spectrum of health issues, including cardiovascular disease, cancer, autoimmune conditions, diabetes, and obesity.
But you may know me better from my interviews on news channels across America…
Or my online videos on health and wellness, which have over 50 million views
And according to my colleagues, this “Protein Wake-Up Call” documentary you’re watching right now is my most important video to date
I’m also the personal physician for legendary self-help guru Tony Robbins, who was kind enough to recently say:
“Dr. Gundry is one of America’s greatest and most knowledgeable physicians, and for years I’ve had the good fortune to benefit from his care.”
Why do Tony Robbins, Fortune 500 executives, and thousands of other Americans come to me for help?
The answer is simple: Because I’m willing to tackle medical issues that NOBODY else can fix.
People come to me when they’ve been everywhere...Harvard, the Mayo Clinic, Princeton, UCLA...and they still can’t find answers.
Because I’m not afraid to try solutions that go “against the grain.” In fact, in my experience, many health professionals are often behind on the latest research, and in some cases, actually doing more harm than good.
And nowhere is this more clear than when it comes to one of the most important parts of your diet:
Protein
So let’s start with the good part:
What Can Protein Do For You?
In a word: Everything.
Protein — along with carbs and fat — is one of the three main ways your body gets energy.
And when it comes to benefits, protein is FAR superior to carbs and fats. Here’s why:
It Helps You Manage Your Weight
While eating carbs make you hungrier, protein is special because it makes you feel full. It actually stops unhealthy food cravings.
And protein ignites thermogenesis — the process of “calorie burning” in your body. This means protein tells your body to burn extra calories, even while you sleep.
In fact, I’ve discovered that one simple trick involving protein — which I’ll show you in just a moment — is actually my #1 most recommended key to losing weight and keeping it off.
This is so important, not just for our appearance — although let’s face it, that is important — but also for your health.
Staying in shape is the key to a longer life, and having confidence as you age. And you CAN attain that amazing feeling — at any age — with this one, simple protein hack.
But the benefits of protein don’t end there...
Protein Is Also Vital To Stronger Bones
Multiple human clinical studies have shown that protein works with calcium to give you denser, stronger bones… which is really important, especially for people over 40.
It’s Great For Muscle Health, Too
You don’t have to be an athlete to want a stronger, healthier body. As we age, we ALL need extra muscle support.
And protein not only builds muscle… it actually reduces aches, and even helps boost recovery time.
Sounds great, right? But before you go out and eat a thick, protein-rich steak, there’s something you should know:
Health Warning:
The Wrong Protein Can Actually Cause Serious Health Problems.
And the main culprit for “bad protein” is something I’ve been warning people about for years:
Red Meat.
And the good news is, getting healthier does not involve giving up any type of meat — even red meat.
There’s a simple secret that lets you eat all your favorite proteins, AND still be healthier AND leaner...
And when you hear it, you’re going to be shocked at how simple it is!
But to understand it, you first need to understand why red meat is correlated with so many health issues.
You see, Harvard University — one of the top research facilities in the world — recently announced that overconsumption of red meat can lead to heart disease, diabetes, and even cancer.
In one massive study of 120,000 men and women, the risk of dying from heart disease went up by 13% for every 3 ounces of red meat people ate daily.
And this will shock you…
Remember when I asked you which of these foods increased your risk of heart disease?
If you answered the hot dog… you were right.
Eating just one hot dog daily increases the risk of developing heart disease by 20%!
And even if you don’t eat hot dogs, ANY processed meat is terrible for your body.
That includes cold cuts like processed ham, pastrami, and roast beef.
And the more you eat, the WORSE it is for your health.
For instance, if you eat two strips of processed bacon as well, your risk goes up by an additional 20%!
In one study at Harvard, people who increased their red meat consumption by just 3.5 servings a week were 50% more likely to develop diabetes over the next 4 years.
Now you may be wondering:
How can MEAT… be so bad?
Didn’t our ancestors eat meat every day?
And can I still eat meat AND live a long life?
Well fortunately, the answer to the last question is YES... you CAN still eat meat, as long as you know what meats are GOOD for you, and which are BAD.
But speaking of your ancestors, let me tell you a fact that will change the way you look at food…
The meat your ancestors ate was mostly HEALTHY… while the animal protein we eat today is practically TOXIC.
And a big reason comes down to the way animals are raised today, and a secret that the food industry has been trying to hide for YEARS.
To understand this, let me pose you a simple question:
If a corporation that owns a giant cattle farm wants to make more money, should they...
Make the cows extra healthy, so they live a long time?
Or
B) Make the cows GROW ABNORMALLY FAST, even if it was terrible for their health?
If you guessed option B… you’re exactly right.
When I was a kid growing up in Omaha, Nebraska, many cattle farms were still good, family owned businesses that cared about the health of their customers and their animals.
But today, virtually every piece of meat you find in a grocery store comes from a massive, corporate-owned cattle farm who really only care about squeezing every penny they can out of you, me… and their cattle.
They want cows that grow FAST… and grow BIG… so they get the most beef they can in the quickest amount of time.
And when it comes to dairy cows, they want cows that produce as much milk as possible every day… even if it means pushing the cows’ biology beyond what nature intended.
And they do this with one “magical” ingredient, knows as insulin-like growth factor, or IGF-1.
IGF is found in all kinds of animal protein.
But here’s the shocking truth the food industry does not want you to know:
If you’re between the ages of 45 and 65, the more IGF there is in your body over time… the greater your chances are of fatal health issues.
I’m going to show you PROOF of this in just a moment…
And it’s going to change the way you eat… I guarantee it.
But first, let’s understand what IGF is… and what it does to your body.
IGF is a hormone your body makes naturally, mostly in your liver.
It has an anabolic effect — meaning it builds things in your body.
IGF is actually vital to your growth when you’re young. Remember that growth spurt you experienced when you were going through puberty? That was thanks to IGF-1.
And if a child’s IGF levels are low, it can actually cause growth problems, and even dwarfism.
But here’s the thing about IGF…
As adults, we DO NOT need as much IGF. After all, we’re not “growing” anymore, like when we were kids.
And it turns out, having too much IGF as an adult is actually terrible for your body.
There have been MANY studies that confirm this, but let me tell you about a landmark study that sent shockwaves through the medical community.
In 2014, one of the largest studies ever conducted on IGF-1 was published by 15 researchers, several of which are world-famous.
These researchers were from some of the most prestigious universities in the world, including UCLA, USC, Washington University Medical School, and others.
Amazingly, the study included over 6,300 men and women for 18 straight years… starting at ages 50-65, with the oldest respondents eventually reaching age 83.
And they examined to see who developed certain diseases, who lived the longest… and who died the soonest.
The results were, in a word, shocking.
Of the 6,381 respondents, those with the highest protein intake had a 75% increase in their chance of early death.
And amongst people who had no diabetes when the study began, those that ate a high protein diet were 73 times more likely to develop diabetes!
When asked what the connection between animal protein and death was, the researchers pointed at one thing in particular:
IGF-1
You see, animal protein is PROVEN to increase IGF-1 levels in the human body.
In fact, if you’re between the ages of 50 and 65, even a microscopic amount of IGF can increase your risk from fatal illnesses such as cancer by 9% compared to the low protein group.
When the researchers studied mice who had cancer tumors, the mice with high protein intake had tumors that were 78% bigger than the low protein mice...after just 39 days.
Unsurprisingly, the high-protein mice with gigantic tumors also had 35% higher levels of… you guessed it, IGF-1.
This is how the researchers summarized their results:
“Our study indicates that high levels of animal proteins promoting increases in IGF-1 and possibly insulin, and aging may be the major promoter of mortality for people age 45–65 in the 18 years following the survey assessing protein intake.”
When these results were published four years ago, many in the medical community were shocked.
But I must say, I was not.
Why?
Because I had been warning people about the dangers of IGF-1… for YEARS.
How long have the dangers been known? Well, this might make you angry...
After studying 32,000 people in a major Harvard study, the Harvard Gazette reported that:
“High levels of [IGF-1] SIGNIFICANTLY increase the risk of colorectal, breast, and prostate cancer.”
Do you know what year this was published?
It was 1999… almost 20 years ago!
Why have these results been known for almost two decades, and nobody has done anything about it?
The answer is going to shock you…
This once again comes down to cattle farms… and money.
You see, since 1994, growth hormones have been given to MILLIONS of cows in America.
According to one study, Bovine Somatotrophin, or bovine growth hormone, has been given to about 30% of dairy cows in America… and a staggering 90% of beef cows.
The reason makes perfect sense… financially.
Growth hormones have been shown to make beef cows bigger and heavier, and they get that way faster, so they can be brought to slaughter more quickly and more money can be made by cattle producers.
And in dairy cows, growth hormones trick cows into skipping the so-called “dry” period of their milk cycle… meaning that they can pump milk every day, resulting in about 10 - 40% more milk production.
Is more milk good for dairy farmer profits? Sure.
Is it good for cows, who are not meant to lactate every day of their lives, and often develop infections in the udders as a result?
No way.
And is it good for YOU, when you drink milk that may be pumped full of antibiotics to kill infections?
Absolutely NOT.
And whether or not you drink cow’s milk, multiple studies have shown that ALL red meat consumption increases levels of IGF-1 in the human body.
By the way, you might be wondering…
“Haven’t I heard of people using growth hormones somewhere else?”
Yes, you may have heard of one specific group of people who use growth hormones — body builders.
Several decades ago, some body builders realized that they — like cows — could experience quicker muscle-building and weight gain by artificially dosing themselves with IGF-1.
And actually, if all you care about is muscle… it can have some short term benefits.
There’s just one problem…
According to Baylor professor Dr. Daniel Gwartney, who studied 1,578 body builders…
Body builders are 34% more likely to experience early death than non-body builders of the exact same age!
Okay, so let’s walk through everything all at once…
The hormone that some body builders take to rapidly increase muscle mass…
Hormones believed to contribute to sudden heart attacks and liver failure...
This same hormone that likely is found in nearly every ounce of red meat on our supermarket shelves…
Meat that comes from cows pumped full of bovine growth hormone to make them grow faster, to make corporations more money…
And those cows end up as beef products on your kitchen table…
And this hormone ends up inside of YOU… building up in your body, every single day, like a pot of boiling water, about to boil over.
THIS is the secret reason why red meat is so problematic
This is a MODERN problem, caused by corporate farms pumping our cattle full of things to make them artificially bigger — and less healthy — than they ever were meant to be.
Okay, now onto the GOOD news…
While consuming too much red meat can lead to weight gain, heart disease, and even worse health problems…
Fortunately, the inverse is also true…
If you can simply REDUCE your red meat intake — even just a little — research shows you can experience dramatic weight loss, as well as a reduction in your risk of diabetes, heart disease, and certain types of cancer.*
*Results not typical. Your results can and will vary.
Notice, I didn’t say eliminate completely... I actually just said reduce.
Yes, it is NOT necessary to give up red meat to be healthy.
Because while red meat can be dangerous when consumed at high levels, at low or moderate levels, animal protein can absolutely be part of a healthy diet.
In fact, in a 2014 study published by the Harvard School of Public Health,
Researchers discovered that just reducing the amount of red meat you eat by 3.5 servings per week resulted in a powerful 14% lower risk of developing type-2 diabetes.
So if you want to be healthier, slimmer, and feel BETTER, the Harvard researchers made it crystal clear:
“Choosing more healthy sources of protein in place of red meat can confer significant health benefits by reducing chronic disease morbidity and mortality.”
— Dr. Frank Hu, Professor, Harvard Medical School
So step 1 of my “protein hack” for lower weight and better health is simple:
Protein Hack Step #1:
Eat 4 fewer servings of red meat a week.
If you think about it, this is actually not too hard. After all, if you eat 3 meals a day, that’s 21 meals a week.
You just need to pick 4 of those meals that normally have red meat… and eat something else!
And believe me, there IS a way to get plenty of protein, and still eat the foods you love, as you’re about to see.
What are some better proteins to eat?
Well, there are some GREAT choices…
But before I get to them, I must point out something that so many of my patients don’t know…
Switching to chicken is NOT the answer.
Like I said, I DO eat chicken… but if you simply SWAP chicken breast for red meat, not only will you not improve your health…
It could actually have the opposite effect.
Firstly, store-bought chicken is usually pumped full of antibiotics.
In fact, one chicken breast may contain almost as many estrogenic substances as an entire birth control pill!
By the way, chicken may contain antibiotics even if it’s labeled organic and free-range.
Here’s something you may be surprised by…
If there’s 100,000 chickens on an organic, free range farm, and one of the chickens gets sick?
The veterinarian is allowed to dose the ENTIRE flock with antibiotics, and it’s still considered organic.
And who do you think the vet works for? The chickens? For you?
No, he works for the farm, and at the end of the day, a farm is just a business looking to increase their profits.
And pork is just as bad as chicken.
The “other white meat” is actually loaded with IGF-1, just like beef is.
So, what ARE the healthiest animal proteins to eat?
Two of the better sources of animal protein are actually wild fresh fish and shellfish, such as Alaskan salmon and wild caught shrimp.
Fish are packed with omega-3s… which are really good for your health.
I like my fish baked or grilled. Some people even have fish in tacos...like this one I showed you earlier.
And would you guess that this fish taco could also help your vision?
In fact, in one famous British study, researchers found people who ate fish just once per week cut their risk of macular degeneration in half.
If you ask me, that’s a GREAT reason to get at least one serving of fresh fish per week.
And while I do recommend fish as a healthier option than processed meat like hot dogs, bacon, and cold cuts, it has drawbacks.
As you probably know, eating only fresh fish every day is both time-consuming and expensive.
And this is still animal protein. Like red meat, fish is also associated with elevated IGF-1 levels.
And, according to the FDA, virtually all fish contains at least small amounts of mercury… which can lead to a whole range of health problems.
So fish, while good, is still not the ideal protein.
Fortunately, there is some GREAT news here…
Because one of the best sources for protein on earth doesn’t even come from animals… it’s actually from plants.
A lot of people find it hard to believe that plants can provide enough protein for humans.
In fact, I’ve heard more than a few people say something like this:
“You need to eat meat to build muscle.”
Well, tell that to a silverback gorilla —
Which has enough muscle to rip the door off a Chevy, but eats almost nothing but leaves and shoots all day.
Or a thoroughbred race horse, strapping with muscles, one of the fastest physical specimens in the animal world…
Which forage on almost nothing but grass and water every day.
You might think, sure, that works for gorillas and horses…
But humans need meat to survive, don’t they?
Like I said, I do love animal meat… but no, we don’t need it… at all...
Just ask Samantha Stokely, a vegan Canadian nutrition expert. She looks like she’s doing okay without meat to me!
Or take a look at Nimai Delgado, a world-famous vegetarian pro athlete. In fact, Nimai has never eaten animal meat in his entire life!
So, can plants can give you TONS of protein?
That may be an understatement!
But the best reason to eat plant proteins may actually be for your overall health.
Remember the UCLA study that said a high protein diet was associated with 4 times greater likelihood of early death?
Here’s the one, shocking thing they added after looking at all the data:
“These associations were either abolished or attenuated if the source of proteins was plant-based.”
Yes, you read that right…
Plant protein is IMMUNE from the dangers of animal protein.
That means ALL the health risks described in the study,
They all DISAPPEAR if your protein source comes from plants instead of animals.
This is where my second Protein Hack comes in:
Protein Hack Step #2:
To manage weight and get healthier, simply swap 4 red meat servings a week with plant protein instead.
I cannot tell you how big a difference this can make in your life.
Again, you may currently be eating 10, 15, even 20 or more servings of red meat a week.
And all you need to do is swap out 4 of them for good, healthy plant protein, and you can experience ALL of the following:
Healthier Weight (plant protein is associated with weight loss)*
Improved heart health (plant proteins don’t contain IGF-1)*
Fewer cravings (you can fill up on AS MUCH plant protein as you want...without the health risks)*
*Results not typical. Your results can and will vary.
And most importantly…
Sleep easy, knowing you’re on the road to healthy years ahead… because plant proteins not only don’t incur the warning that animal proteins do, they actually can IMPROVE health, so you ADD years to your life!
So plant protein is, in my opinion, the ideal protein to swap a few times a week for red meat.
However, there is one health warning I must give you:
Certain plants high in protein — such as quinoa, soy, buckwheat, peanut butter, and beans…
Are all PACKED with what I call one of the most dangerous things you can put in your body…
They’re called lectins.
If you’ve ever seen my videos before, you know about lectins already…
Lectins are tiny little proteins, found in certain kinds of plants, that are not supposed to be in your body.
One famous type of lectin you may have heard of is gluten, but that’s just one type...there’s actually many found in various plants. Some common foods containing lectins are:
Whole Grain Wheat
Eggplants
and Tomatoes
Many people have been told these are “health foods,” but in my opinion, they are anything but.
Because your ancestors didn’t eat ANY of these so-called health foods.
You see, tomatoes and eggplants weren’t introduced to western civilization until 1492… when Christopher Columbus discovered them in the new world and brought them back to Europe.
Of course, he had no idea they were packed with lectins… or the impact they could have on human GI tracts, which had never been exposed to the foreign foods before.
In the case of whole grain wheat, humans have been eating it a while longer, since farming began about 10,000 years ago…
But even then, most societies historically removed the dark wheat husk and instead ate white bread...which is not a coincidence.
Because it’s in the dark husk that gut-destroying lectins are contained.
However, since 1950, the use of whole wheat “health foods” have skyrocketed in our society, as well as other lectin-rich foods.
Do you know what else has happened since 1950?
The obesity rate has more than tripled.
The diabetes rate has skyrocketed 800%.
An astounding 70% of Americans are now considered overweight or obese.
And I was one of them.
You see, the nasty little lectins in these foods are experts at “breaking” the cellular walls in your gut.
And when they break those cells protecting your gut wall, they don’t just bust through your digestive tract…
They leave a HOLE in the protective gut lining, meaning OTHER bad stuff can now get through too.
This, in short, is what we call Leaky Gut… lectins making holes in your digestive lining.
And leaky gut has been linked to ALL of the following:
Weight gain
Digestive discomfort, including
Bloating
Occasional Constipation and Diarrhea
Also joint discomfort
Fatigue
And even rashes and skin issues
So, when it comes to plants, I have a BIG rule:
AVOID PLANTS THAT CONTAIN LECTINS.
Okay, you just learned a LOT about lectins, protein, and health. Congratulations!
In fact, at this point, you know more than most Americans, and probably more than quite a few doctors!
So what ARE good plant-based, lectin free protein sources?
Some good ones are
Spinach
Broccoli
Avocado
Cauliflower
And Brussel sprouts
All of these are tasty, contain protein, and will feel you up… WITHOUT making you feel guilty about your health!
And if you don’t think these foods are tasty, take a look at this pizza…
That’s actually a cauliflower crust, so this pizza is Gundry-Approved!
It may seem amazing, but you can eat plant-based foods like this every day, while getting healthier..
But if you want to know my “Ultimate” plant based proteins… the kind you probably don’t see all the time… let me share my 3 favorite plant based — and LECTIN-FREE — protein sources with you right now.
The first is Flaxseed — a high fiber, lectin-free protein that REALLY fills you up, while also leading to smoother, more regular bowel movements.
I also love Spirulina, an exotic blue-green algae that’s absolutely loaded with healthy antioxidants… more than just about any vegetable you can find in a grocery store.
And Hemp seed, another lectin-free plant protein that fills you up just like meat, but can also give you incredible health benefits such as reduced joint discomfort, help with occasional constipation, and even help you control your weight.,,
These 3 plant proteins won’t just fill you up, they actually contain special benefits… which is why I’ve been recommending them to my patients for years.
And when my patients just substituted 4 servings of red meat a week with these powerful, lectin-free, plant-based superfoods, they told me the changes to their health weren’t just subtle…
It was like a switch got flipped.
They actually felt leaner, cleaner, and healthier… on the inside.*
*Results not typical. Your results can and will vary.
And they could see the difference, every day… when they looked in the mirror and saw their waistline shrinking!*
*Results not typical. Your results can and will vary.
These foods are also REALLY high in fiber, so if you have digestive discomfort, bloating, or constipation… these 3 plant proteins are like a godsend.
And as you can imagine, by eliminating a few meals of red meat a week… people I gave these 3 proteins to were losing a tremendous amount of weight, week after week.*
*Results not typical. Your results can and will vary.
And I was one of them. Ask anybody who knows anything about me, anybody who’s read my books, or heard me speak with Tony Robbins…
Switching to a mostly lectin-free, plant-based diet is how I lost 70 pounds of weight… and have kept it off for 20 years and counting.
There were just a couple problems…
Flaxseed, Spirulina, and hemp aren’t easy to get. You usually need to find them at a specialty store or farmer’s market.
Also, let’s be honest…
Flaxseed, spirulina, and hemp can taste good… but only if you’ve got time to cook them!
So about a year ago, I got to thinking:
Could I turn these plant-based proteins — into something EVERYONE would be able to enjoy?
Something that FILLS YOU UP, so you don’t miss the red meat.
Something inexpensive, so people could use it as often as they want without breaking the bank
Something easy to make at home (I’m talking, less than 2 minutes)
Something that is NOT perishable
Something that’s GREAT for your health
And most important of all…
Something that tastes FANTASTIC
Well, let me tell you…
When I asked my sources in the nutrition world if it was possible, they all told me the same thing:
“Dr. Gundry...If it were possible, don’t you think we would have done it by now?”
Well, I’m not the kind of guy that takes “no” for an answer, especially where people’s health is concerned.
So I worked on it, week after week, month after month.
And to be honest, there were times where we seemed so far off, I thought about giving up.
But I kept at it.
And after 12 months of testing at the lab, we FINALLY discovered the perfect solution…
A way to turn these powerful proteins into a delicious, high-protein shake…
That’s right, a shake…
One that people can use to crush hunger, feel better, and even replace a meal if they’re dieting.
I started giving this shake out to patients, friends, family members, anybody who wanted more energy, a slimmer waistline, and a stronger, healthier body…
And week after week, as I saw the way people looked — and felt —
The results they received were stunning.
I phoned the lab and asked them to make a larger batch, so that we could begin getting it to ANYBODY who wants an easy, HEALTHY way to lose weight, feel better, and crush their cravings FOR GOOD with what may be the most innovative protein drink ever created.
I call it:
Gundry MD ProPlant Complete Shake™
ProPlant is the first — and only — “Gundry-Approved” protein shake!
And ProPlant was designed to do ALL of the following:
Stop your food cravings, so you can eat less and diet easier*
Naturally support bone and heart health, crucially important as we age*
Provide smoother, effortless bowel movements*
Ignite thermogenesis, the natural “calorie burning” power in your body*
And even boost energy — both physical and mental*
*Results not typical. Your results can and will vary.
ProPlant Complete Shake contains a whopping 10g of protein in every serving...the same amount as a fast food hamburger patty.
But it contains ZERO red meat, meaning it’s FANTASTIC for your health!
Best of all, we’ve put this protein into a delicious shake...
One you can have at ANY time of day to end your cravings, replace a meal, and help achieve the body you want and deserve.
Simply mix 1 scoop of ProPlant powder with water, almond or coconut milk, or even your favorite smoothie.
Then let this protein-rich drink go to work, filling you up with protein that you can feel GOOD about having.
And can I tell you a secret?
About 20 mins ago, I was getting a little hungry... so I actually made myself a shake with ProPlant and coconut milk.
I’ve had barely half of it and my cravings are gone.
I’ve always believed that losing weight and getting healthy should not be about starving yourself. It should be about swapping one thing for another… something that’s just as delicious, but WAY more healthy!
And that’s exactly what ProPlant can do for you.
I’m going to tell you how you can get ProPlant in just a minute, but first, let me explain how we achieved these incredible hunger-stopping, health-boosting results.
It’s all thanks to 3 “superfood” ingredients that, when combined, can literally change your life.
Super Protein #1 — Flaxseed
Flaxseed is a wonderful source of lectin-free protein. It also contains lots of fiber, which can help you feel fuller and lead to smoother, more regular bowel movements.
And it’s great for your heart. Multiple clinical studies have shown flaxseed can help support healthy cholesterol levels already within the normal range, and even be a boon to healthy blood circulation.
But ProPlant Complete Shake is more than just Flaxseed. It also contains a powerful “ocean superfood”...
Super Protein #2 — Spirulina
Spirulina is a blue-green algae that’s rich in protein, iron, and other powerful minerals. And don’t worry...this algae tastes great in ProPlant!
But what’s most important is that spirulina is also packed with antioxidants… which help keep our bodies healthy and young.
In one study, elderly patients ages 60 - 87 were given either spirulina or placebo. After 16 weeks, the placebo group had no change.
But the group taking spirulina had antioxidant levels that were through the roof!
Perhaps that’s why algae is so popular in Japan...whose people are the thinnest, healthiest, and longest living in the world.
Speaking of Japan, it’s one of the famous “Blue Zones” you may have heard about on the news…
These “Blue Zones” are the five places in the world where people live the longest… boasting more people over the age of 100 than any other places on earth.
These places include Okinawa, Japan… Sardinia, Italy… and Ikaria, Greece…and my old home, Loma Linda, California!
They all eat different foods, speak different languages, and have different cultures.
But do you know what the ONE THING all their diets have in common?
They all eat uncommonly LOW levels of… that’s right, animal protein.
And by switching out a few meals a week for plant proteins, you’ll be following in their footsteps… footsteps that can lead to living to age 100 and beyond!
Speaking of legendary places on earth, ProPlant Complete Shake contains one of the most ancient sources of protein in the agricultural world…
Super Protein #3 — Hemp
Okay, no giggling… this hemp can’t give you a “buzz”.
What it CAN do is give you incredible health benefits such as reduced joint discomfort, help with occasional constipation, and even help you control your weight.,,
It’s also rich in omega-3s — the ultra-healthy fatty acids found in fresh fish.
That’s right, it has the health benefits of fresh fish… in a plant!
Which is incredible, because Omega-3s have been associated with all of the following:
It naturally supports heart health… so important as we get older
Improved brain health... something we ALL can use!
Healthy vision and eye support... a HUGE bonus for me
Even helps you control weight... which can make a major difference in your health AND confidence
And now you can get ALL these benefits — all the power of hunger-stopping proteins, health-hero omegas, and cell-boosting antioxidants —
In one delicious, easy-to-make beverage — Gundry MD’s ProPlant Complete Shake.
And amazingly, this formula can actually save you money.
You see, ProPlant was designed to be swapped in for 4 to 5 meals a week.
And the reason it can replace a meal — and still leave you completely satisfied — is because ProPlant complete shake fills you up just like a hamburger...
Yet has only 120 calories per serving.
(Compare that to the 1120 calories in a regular burger, fries, and soda... and you can see why people are losing so much weight with this shake!)
And at about two dollars a serving, it’s actually much CHEAPER than a normal meal.
That’s why ProPlant Complete Shake is such a game changer. Compared to most meals, it’s:
Lower calorie (by a lot!)
Healthier (by a lot!)
Cheaper (by a lot!)
That’s why I consider ProPlant Complete Shake to be one of the healthiest and most groundbreaking weight management tools ever created… period.
Now at this time, I should point out that meal replacement is not for everyone.
If you are severely underweight, especially if you’re over 70, then it can actually be helpful to GAIN a little weight as you get older.
So if your doctor has said you’re TOO skinny, but you want to get all the health benefits of Flaxseed, Spirulina, and Hemp seed, you can still drink ProPlant once a day… just don’t skip your normal meals!
Enjoy it as a dessert, or whenever you want an extra snack. It’s actually become one of my favorite treats.
However, if you’re one of the millions of Americans who would love to lose a few pounds… which studies show can make you not just healthier, but HAPPIER, and more confident...
...or if you suspect you may be eating a diet high in animal protein, and you’re excited about the health benefits of swapping 4 servings of red meat a week for healthy, delicious plant-based protein…
Then Gundry MD ProPlant Shake was designed specifically for you.
And by the way, no matter how you chose to get plant based proteins in your diet, please stay away from those terrible store-bought protein shakes or candy bars.
Most of them are made from cheap whey protein, which comes from cow’s milk. And guess what it’s loaded with?
IGF-1… a health destroyer.
Same goes for all those so-called healthy bone broth supplements, which are — as you may have guessed —- loaded with IGF-1.
You should also make sure to read the label of any shakes or bars that use vegetable sources…
Sometimes, cheap vegetable proteins can actually be worse for you than whey!
Most of them are just low-cost pea powder or brown rice powder… which are loaded with dangerous lectins, which tear holes in your gut lining.
In fact, one of the top protein powder makers in the world — I can’t use their actual name — asked me about 8 years ago if I approved of their product.
I took one look at the label and told then no sir, I did not… unless they switched to a lectin-free plant source.
Well, they didn’t. And just this year, they had to pull ALL their powder off the shelves.
This was just further evidence for me that when it comes to protein, there are so few companies you can trust.
That’s why I’m PROUD to have my name on Gundry MD’s ProPlant shake — a protein source formulated by a doctor, based on science, and used every day by thousands of people — including me, my wife, my patients, and all the people I care about most in this world.
Now, let’s talk about how you can get ProPlant Complete Shake for yourself today.
As you’ve probably guessed, getting all 3 of these protein-rich superfoods is quite a challenge. I know… because I used to buy them all individually, and take them all myself!
And they worked great… but finding safe, effective sources of these ingredients was costly, time consuming, and as you might expect, a lot of work to mix and prepare three separate supplements a day.
But I like to give people options, so if you do want to buy these 3 ingredients yourself, I’ve listed the exact ingredients you need on my website, so you can order them from anywhere you like and mix them all together at home.
However, if you’d rather have this incredible formula measured perfectly, and know that it was 3rd party tested for safety, purity, and potency…
And flavored with a delicious, all-natural flavor that you’ll actually LOVE drinking each day...
Then we’ve created an easy way for you to obtain ProPlant Complete Shake™ for yourself.
When we decide to make ProPlant Complete Shake™ available on our website, my distributor tells me it will retail for around $69.95… a great price when you consider how expensive and time consuming it is to get these 3 health-boosting, cravings-stopping ingredients.
But because you’ve watched this entire video, and I know you’re serious about getting healthy, I’ve asked our team to dramatically lower the cost of ProPlant Complete Shake for Internet customers.
So if you order today through this video presentation, you can get Gundry MD’s ProPlant Complete Shake™ for just $49.95
That’s an instant savings of $20!
But remember, this offer is only available to customers through this video presentation.
When this video closes, Gundry MD ProPlant Complete Shake will only be available on our website for its regular price of $69.95.

*Every individual is unique. As such, your results can and will vary.
My email address is [email protected]. Seeing and hearing how science changes people’s lives is probably the greatest joy I experience as a doctor.
And second — and this is equally important — please tell your friends and loved ones about the dangers of red meat on our lifespan.
As you know, I consider this one of the greatest threats to the health of Americans, and most people at risk have no idea that processed meats and IGF-1 are so directly linked to weight gain, low energy, and many far worse health problems.
I’ve tried to do my part by creating this video. Now, we need to spread the word.
And because you’ve made it this far, and because you’re serious about improving your physical health, we’ve got some special packages available to help you even more.

And the reason we have so many users is because when people start taking Gundry MD ProPlant Complete Shake, they end up asking for quite a bit more… not just for themselves, but for friends and family too.

Now, I’d like to get serious for a moment and talk about what’s going to happen if you DON’T start making some real changes today…
Now, unless you’re one of the tiny fraction of people who eat only organic, grass-fed, hormone-free animal protein, the reality is that our bodies will continue to deteriorate as we get older if we do nothing to stop it.
Fatigue, digestive discomfort, belly fat...
…these are not problems that just go away on their own.
Yes, we can make some radical changes to our lifestyle — dramatically eliminating lots of foods from our diet, starting a comprehensive exercise plan — but these changes are very difficult to stick to.
As a surgeon and nutritionist, I can tell you that the longer we wait to deal with problems, the worse they get.
I’ve seen many patients deteriorate very quickly as they age, and this is something they actually could have prevented if they’d just made a few small changes.
Just to give you an example of how small things can lead to big problems, I’ve seen slight variations in cholesterol levels spiral out of control in a matter of months.
I’ve seen minor digestive problems turn into much more serious conditions.
That’s why I’m urging you to take action today and make a positive change in your health.
Try Gundry MD ProPlant Complete Shake™ right now — risk-free — and see for yourself.
One serving per day of this blend can have such a remarkable impact on so many areas of your health.
I want you to feel the charge of energy that kicks in with this formula.
I want you to feel the joy of going for a hike with friends and family because your joints and muscles are feeling strong and healthy again.*Every individual is unique. As such, your results can and will vary.
I want you to feel great after you eat and to make indigestion, gas, and constipation a thing of the past.
*Every individual is unique. As such, your results can and will vary.
I want you to feel — and SEE — your changing waistline every morning when you look in the mirror
*Every individual is unique. As such, your results can and will vary.
I want you to feel the vitality you know is inside you…just waiting to come out…
*Every individual is unique. As such, your results can and will vary.
Please, click the “Next Step” button below and get started right away with this investment in your future.

I’m Dr. Steven Gundry
Still here? You’ve probably got some questions…and that’s very common. Let me take a few moments to answer some of the most commonly asked questions about Gundry MD ProPlant Complete Shake.
“I’ve seen some other ‘protein’ products advertised…how is Gundry MD ProPlant Complete Shake™ different?”
Before I developed this formula, I looked at the other protein products out there. And I saw huge problems with every one of them…so much so, I refused to recommend any of them. Here’s why…
First, most other ‘protein’ products have added sugars or artificial sweeteners. Both are terrible for your body, and they’re also highly addictive. Gundry MD ProPlant Complete Shake™ has no sugar or artificial sweeteners whatsoever.
Second, most other plant protein products contain LECTINS — and that’s absolutely a no-no for me. We talked earlier about how lectins cause damage all over your body… creating serious problems, including “leaky gut.”
So, Gundry MD ProPlant Complete Shake has™ ZERO lectins. It also has no soy, another “toxic health food” I tell everyone to avoid.
But the big difference between Gundry MD ProPlant Complete Shake™ and other health formulas is that I chose the ingredients for this formula based on actual results.
Look, I’m a surgeon with 30 plus years experience and a published medical researcher, so I brought that expertise to the table. This formula gets real results because it’s got the right ingredients at the right dosage.
Also, Gundry MD ProPlant Complete Shake™ is not just a protein blend. It’s really a 3-in-1 formula that can help boost energy, slim your waist, and protect your long term-longevity like nothing else can.
It’s a complete package with the right stuff that works. To see the full list of ingredients, dosages, and supplement facts…just click the “Next Step” button below for more information.
*Every individual is unique. As such, your results can and will vary.
“Are there any side effects?”
Gundry MD ProPlant Complete Shake contains only 100% pure, quality ingredients. The content is tested for quality and purity at an outside, 3rd-party laboratory.
And again, my formula contains none of the toxic elements you’ll find in lots of other so-called “health products,” including IGF-1, which is in all those whey protein bars and shakes. Gundry MD ProPlant Complete Shake is sugar-free, artificial sweetener-free, lectin-free, soy-free, and dairy-free.
As a physician, I’m putting my reputation on the line with this product — so you can be sure I go to great lengths to make sure my formula is spot-on.
I made a pledge when I developed the Gundry MD line: I will never sell any product I wouldn’t personally recommend to a loved one.
But, of course, as a physician I know that no supplement works for everyone. There's always a very small segment of the population who may be allergic or who can't tolerate certain ingredients in supplements.
If you happen to be be one of the very small percentage of people this applies to, simply contact our US-based customer support team for an easy refund.
“How will I know if it’s working?”
Great question. The best thing about this formula is that you should feel it very quickly.
In the short term, those who replace a few meals a week can immediately notice less bloating, and can start seeing a reduction in belly fat within the first two weeks.
*Every individual is unique. As such, your results can and will vary.
Most users also report feeling a distinctive, noticeable energy charge within an hour of consuming, because they don’t have that “heavy” feeling that always comes from meat.
*Every individual is unique. As such, your results can and will vary.
You literally feel cleaner and lighter. It may take longer for some than for others, but it’s a feeling you’re going to want again and again. *
*Every individual is unique. As such, your results can and will vary.
You should notice a lifting of the “brain fog” that often clouds your day. Breakfast should digest more smoothly, and thanks to all the healthy plant fiber, many people tell me they start have the best bowel movements of their life.
*Every individual is unique. As such, your results can and will vary.
You may notice feeling better about completing tasks, one after the other…without losing steam, without losing stamina. After lunch, you’ll wonder why you don’t feel more lethargic! *
*Every individual is unique. As such, your results can and will vary.
You may also notice your body just feels better, as your IGF-1 levels go down and your muscles and joints really start to regain their natural, healthy state .*
*Every individual is unique. As such, your results can and will vary.
This is what it feels like to finally get your health back.
Of course, there’s only one way to really find out if Gundry MD ProPlant Complete Shake™ will work for you…and that’s to try it for yourself.
If you’re ready right now to get started — and if you’re still here, you should be ready! — simply click the “Next Step” button just below.
“How do I use Gundry MD ProPlant Complete Shake?”
Now, this is the best part because it’s just incredibly easy. It literally takes not even one minute out of your day.
You simply take one scoop of Gundry MD ProPlant Complete Shake, add it to 12 ounces of water, almond milk, or coconut milk, and stir.
If you have a blender, you can even add it to your favorite smoothie.
It’s flavored with a natural, delicious flavor. In fact, this has become my favorite dessert! It actually feels like I’m having a milkshake for lunch… except this shake tastes even better because I know how healthy it is for me.
The extracts in this formula digest so easily, your body starts metabolizing them quickly into energy you can really feel.
By the way, it doesn’t matter which meals you replace with ProPlant — breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It’s just best if you swap this in for a red meat serving, since that’s how you get the long-term benefits to your health and longevity.
And best of all, if you miss a day or two here and there… that’s fine! In fact, I suggest only replacing 4-5 meals a week, so you can still eat whatever you like on the weekends.
And the best thing is, at only 120 calories a serving, you can even make yourself a double shake when you’re really hungry… and still be consuming WAY less calories than you normally would!
“What if it doesn’t work for me?”
Another great question, one we get all the time. Look, as a physician, I believe that everyone can benefit from the fat-burning, health-boosting ingredients in this formula.
However, I’m experienced enough in medicine to know that people are different. An individual body can react very differently to identical compounds.
I’ve even seen very effective drugs have little to no effect on certain patients…and it’s all just down to their individual body dynamics.
So, even though our users rave about the incredible changes they see when using Gundry MD ProPlant Complete Shake™ — there are going to be some cases with fewer results.
However, the great news is this…if the formula doesn’t get results for you, I’m going to give you your money back.
In fact, if there’s any reason at all you’re unsatisfied after a full 90 days of use, I’ll return your investment.
Again, my reputation is on the line here…I want every single person who comes to Gundry MD™ to have a completely positive experience. It’s my name on the label, and I’ve come too far to risk that.
So…try Gundry MD ProPlant Complete Shake™ for 3 full months. If you don’t see truly remarkable results — less fatigue, a slimmer waistline, reduced digestive discomfort, less unexplained body discomfort, clearer thinking, and better physical stamina — I’ll give you your money back, and that’s my personal guarantee.
So, please…simply click the “Next Step” button below and get started — risk-free — right now.
You’ll find detailed information on the website about the full list of ingredients in this cutting-edge formula, about myself and my medical credentials, and everything you need to know about the product.
It’s been a pleasure spending this time with you today, and I hope you’ll take action today — just click the button below — so I can get started on personally transforming your health and your energy!
For your health,
I’m Dr. Steven Gundry
