Welcome to the Dr. Gundry Podcast.

Now here's a staggering statistic. Every year around 655,000 Americans lose their lives to heart disease.

In fact, it's the leading cause of death in the United States, and it's been that way for the last 80 years.

Now granted, COVID has gotten our attention, but it's still heart disease, the number one cause of death.

And according to today's guests, the scariest part is this. Most of the common fixes out there, like maintaining low cholesterol levels and taking preventative medicines like statins may not be helping.

In fact, he believes these recommendations are probably doing more harm than good. You're going to want to hear about this.

And if you've read my work, you know, my guests and I are on the same page. I'm joined by Johnny Bowden, aka the Nutrition Myth Buster, and he's a board-certified nutritionist and expert on diet and weight loss.

He recently relaunched his best-selling book, The Great Cholesterol Myth, revised and expanded. Why lowering your cholesterol won't prevent heart disease and the statin-free plan that will.

Whoa, we got to stay tuned for this. On today's episode, Johnny and I will reveal the truth about cholesterol.

Expose the real villain when it comes to heart disease and share what you can do today to optimize your health and protect your heart.

We've got a lot of exciting things in store for you today on today's episode, so stay tuned. We'll be right back.

Like I always say on the Plant Paradox Protocol, you don't have to give up the foods you love. You simply need to find those foods made with ingredients that love you back.

Johnny, my wife and I love moving night with a bowl of popcorn, but popcorn is a lectin bomb that will eventually cause leaky gut and inflammation.

So we searched high and low for a popcorn alternative. That's why we left for joy when we discovered Nature Nates Pop Sorghum.

You see, Sorghum is one of the only grains that is lectin-free, and that isn't the only reason I'm a fan of Nature Nates Pop Sorghum.

It's easy to digest high and magnesium, non-GMO and organic, and it tastes amazing with a lot of cool flavors like Himalayan salt and ghee butter.

I promise, even though it pops a bit smaller than corn, you're going to love Nature Nates Pop Sorghum.

More importantly, your gut buddies will love you for making the switch.

In order for me to see patients six days a week and still meet my book deadlines, I spend plenty of late nights in front of the computer screen.
