Gundry's rather complex three-phase diet plan focuses on reducing or eliminating grains and sugar, in favor of lean protein and large amounts of vegetables. The initial phases of Gundry's eating plan bear some similarities to the Paleolithic or caveman diet, as presented in books such as Ray Audette's NeanderThin or Loren Cordain's The Paleo Diet.

And often he thinks of his capsuleâs breathtaking liftoff and those subtle, emotionally empowering sunrises and sunsets.
