Summary

Has your doctor lied to you?

Eat low-fat and high-carb, including plenty of “healthy” whole grains - does that sound familiar? Perhaps, this is what you were told at your last doctor’s appointment or visit with a nutritionist, or perhaps, it is something you read online when searching for a healthy diet. And maybe, you’ve been misled. Dr. Ken Berry is here to dispel the myths and misinformation that have been perpetuated by the medical and food industries for decades.

This updated and expanded edition of Dr. Berry’s best seller Lies My Doctor Told Me exposes the truth behind all kinds of “lies” told by well-meaning but misinformed medical practitioners. Nutritional therapy is often overlooked in medical school, and the information provided to physicians is often outdated. However, the negative consequences on your health remain the same. Advice to avoid healthy fats and stay out of the sun has been proven to be detrimental to longevity and can wreak havoc on your system.

In this audiobook, Dr. Berry will enlighten you about nutrition and life choices, their role in our health, and how to begin an educated conversation with your doctor about finding the right path for you.

This book will teach you:

  • Facts doctors are taught to think about nutrition and other preventative health measures and how they should be thinking
  • Story of how the food pyramid and MyPlate came into existence and why they should change
  • Facts about fat intake and heart health
  • Truth about the effects of whole wheat on the human body
  • Role of dairy in your diet
  • Truth about salt - friend or foe?
  • Dangers and benefits of hormone therapy
  • New information about inflammation and how it should be viewed by doctors

Come out of the darkness and let Ken Berry be your guide to optimal health and harmony!

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

The Word According to Berry. One of the best books I have ever read

I am a health care professional. No not a junior HPC a very senior HCP. A Consultant Nurse with a PhD and a Professional Doctorate, I also have 4 other professional degrees. I am at the very top of my tree, an M45 in Dr Berry speak.
I CONSIDERED myself well read but I am completely blown away by this book!
Yes I admit I have told these lies, but through complete and utter ignorance ... said the “at the top of my tree” Dr nurse.
I am so angry that I have been mislead by my professors and myself, and have gone on to mislead my students and patients, despite my extensive reading ... it obviously wasn’t extensive enough!
While reading this book I set about rewriting ALL of my lectures; I lecture and work in AE/ED/ERs as a consultant nurse. I also work and lecture in family medicine.
My whole ethos and clinical practice has changed and will continue to change as I read Dr Berry’s books and watch his YouTube videos, of which I highly recommend and I is how I found myself here.
Thank you Dr Berry ... much respect and gratitude to you.
PS I have written to the Queen of the UK and asked her to knight you.
PPS I have purchased several of your books and I’m spreading them around my friends and colleges.

Well worth listening to

Incredibly interesting! The narration was a bit strange at times but didn't affect the message of the book in any way. The content of the book was great.

Very information book but the voice is so robotic and gets rather tedious after one chapter.

Thank you Dr. Berry

I'm thankful for all the sound advice on diet I have received from Dr. Berry through his YouTube channel. This book is another reason to be thankful for Dr. Berry's enlightened thinking and research.

A Doctor that love to real help his patients, and not just prescribing pills for everything.

A great book with real research about the lies that we believe that are true, but are lies push to make more profits.

Good all round look at real health

An easy listen, a bit too much repetition, probably for effect. Would have like Dr Berry to have narrated himself!
