Publisher's 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 Nutritional therapy is often overlooked in medical school, and the information provided to physicians is often outdated.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.

Straightforward and enlightening

As someone who has been a skeptic of our health care approach for a long time, it is refreshing to listen to a doctor who gets it. Whether you are just starting to explore a more holistic approach to health or if you have been on this journey for years, it’s a worthwhile read, especially for the other books and resources he suggests.

There is a reason

There is a reason the ratings are so high for this book. Dr. Berry lays waste to a whole lot of myths that your doctor probably has told you at some point. Hopefully your doctor, like my new doctor, is open to discussion and willing to admit when he needs to read up on something. Dr. Ken Berry brings an easy country boy flare to big city medicine meaning that he could scientifically explain, and does, but then puts it in plain words and adds a touch of humor whenever appropriate. His book and his YouTube channel help thousands of people every day. He'd be an excellent U.S. Secretary of Health in a more perfect world

Loved the book... But...

Loved the book... Very informative and entertaining, but it would have been so much better if Dr. Berry had narrated it himself.

Good information

Information in the book was good and the format was nice since the topics were broken out into short chapters. If a health concern doesn't apply you can just jump to the next topic. Also appreciated the extra resource links at the end of each chapter. The narrator made it really hard to listen to though. Very choppy delivery and he pronunciation was just weird.
