THE PEGAN DIET

Mark Hyman

21 Pracitcal Principles for Reclaiming Your Health in a Nutritionally Confusing World

12-time New York Times bestselling author Mark Hyman, MD, presents his unique Pegan diet. In THE PEGAN DIET, Dr. Hyman uses a food medicine approach to explain how to take the best aspects of the paleo diet (good fats, limited refined carbs, limited sugar) and combine them with the vegan diet (lots and lots of fresh, healthy veggies) to create a delicious diet that is not only good for your brain and your body, but also good for the planet.
For decades, the diet wars have pitted advocates for the low-carb, high-fat paleo diet against advocates of the exclusively plant-based vegan diet and dozens of other diets leaving most of us bewildered and confused. For those of us on the sidelines, trying to figure out which approach is best has been nearly impossible -- both extreme diets have unique benefits and drawbacks. But how can it be, we've asked desperately, that our only options are bacon and butter three times a day or endless kale salads? How do we eat to reverse disease, to optimize health, longevity and performance. How do we eat to reverse climate change? There must be a better way!

Featuring 30 recipes, and plenty of infographics illustrating the concepts, THE PEGAN DIET offers a balanced and easy-to-follow approach to eating that will help you get, and stay, fit, healthy, focused, and happy -- for life.

Mark Hyman, MD, is the Head of Strategy and Innovation for the Cleveland Clinic Center for Functional Medicine, board president for clinical affairs for the Institute for Functional Medicine, founder and director of The UltraWellness Center, and host of the leading health podcast, The Doctor's Farmacy.

Comments

The line between medicine and food is thinner than people think. Both go into the body, where they affect the overall health of the organism. Mark Hyman understands that, and wants to make sure that you do, too. His new book combines aspects of other diets you may have heard of, paleo and vegan, to develop a new way of living and eating. I prescribe this book!
