The 21-Day Immunity Plan – by Dr. Aseem Malhotra

We previously reviewed Dr. Malhotra’s “A Statin-Free Life”, and this time he’s back with more lifestyle medicine to naturally improve an important system (or set of systems, depending on how we want to slice it) with our diet and other lifestyle factors.

This is not, however, an “appeal to nature” fallacy, and in fact Dr. Malhotra is a professor of evidence-based medicine (as well as being a cardiologist, not generally a field of the whimsical).

The main premise of the book is that while there are indeed foods that boost immunity per se, the immune system doesn’t exist in a vacuum and is inextricably linked to other systems, and the metabolism as a whole. Thus, the lifestyle approach here prioritizes immune-boosting things as a focus (and avoiding immune-harming things), while lifting overall health too.

The titular “21-day immunity plan” is, thus, largely dietary, but also addresses exercise, and stress management, amongst other factors.

The style is mostly quite light pop-science, with a lot of references to harder science for those who want it.

Bottom line: if you’d like to boost your immunity measurably in the next 21 days, this book is the one for you!
