Wer hat das Buch "Dumm wie Brot" gelesen und kann den Inhalt als gut oder schlecht beurteilen?
Perlmutter gehört zu der Sorte "Medizinern", die populär werden, indem sie einer bestimmten Gruppe von Patienten genau das einreden, was die gerne hören wollen, unabhängig davon, ob es belastbar richtig ist, geraten oder gelogen. Amazon-Reviews taugen schon allein deshalb nicht als objektiver Maßstab (das tun sie eigentlich nie, selbst bei unterhaltender Literatur)
Wer ohne abgesicherte Diagnose auf den Zug des Gluten-Aberglaubens aufspringen möchte, muss das Buch nicht lesen, wer das nicht will, erst recht nicht.

David Perlmutter - Wikipedia
American celebrity doctor (1954-) David Perlmutter is a Naples , Florida –based American celebrity doctor [1] and author. [2] [3] Early life [ edit ] Perlmutter's father Irwin was a Miami neurosurgeon. [4] David Perlmutter received a Doctor of Medicine degree from the University of Miami School of Medicine . He is also a fellow of the American College of Nutrition . [5] Perlmutter is the author of health books, and is known for advocating a functional and holistic approach toward treating brain disorders and for advocating for the importance of dietary changes. [2] [6] [7] Perlmutter serves as a medical advisor for The Dr. Oz Show and Men's Health . [8] [9] Perlmutter wrote the book Grain Brain, released in September 2013, promoting the concept that gluten causes neurological conditions, which was on the New York Times bestseller list for several weeks. [10] [11] [12] The book was cowritten with Kristen Loberg , a ghostwriter known for working with other celebrity doctors such as Sanjay Gupta and David Agus . In 2023 it was discovered that Grain Brain contained passages plagiarized from Agus' 2012 The End of Illness , which was also cowritten by Loberg. [13] In 2022, Perlmutter published Drop Acid , which advocates for a theory that excess levels of uric acid has negative physiological and neurological health consequences. [14] Although not primarily a medical researcher, he has published in the medical literature. [15] [16] [17] [18] He was the president of the Perlmutter Health Center [7] until its sale in 2015. [19] He is also a contributor to publications such as Daily Beast , Huffington Post , Mind Body Green , and Staying Alive . [20] [21] [22] [23] Perlmutter has received the 2002 Linus Pauling Award (of the Institute for Functional Medicine ), [24] and 2006 National Nutritional Foods Association Clinician Award. [25] In 2015, Perlmutter was awarded the "Communications and Media Award" from the American College of Nutrition [26] In 2019, Perlmutter was awarded the Leadership Award from the Integrative Healthcare Symposium. [27] Criticism [ edit ] Perlmutter and his books have faced criticism from other physicians and commentators. [28] His endorsement of gluten-free and paleolithic diets has been criticized by physicians and is not supported by anthropological research on the Pleistocene human diet . [29] For example, Nash and Slutzky (2014) have written that "according to Grain Brain , much chronic disease originates in the widespread ingestion of carbohydrates, and these foodstuff, rather than cholesterol or saturated fats, are the premier contributor to an unhealthy individual. Numerous recent studies, however, have provided high-level evidence to the contrary." [28] Epidemiologist David Katz , founding director of the Yale-Griffin Prevention Research Center at Griffin Hospital in Derby, CT , has criticized Grain Brain , calling it a "silly book" and saying that "Perlmutter is way ahead of any justifiable conclusion".

Microbiome expert Jonathan Eisen
criticized Brain Maker in blunt terms. "To think we can magically heal diseases by changing to a gluten-free diet and taking some probiotics is idiotic... It resembles more the presentation of a snake-oil salesman than that of a person interested in actually figuring out how to help people."[1]
Perlmutter's advice to parents that they should ask their pediatricians about scheduling childhood vaccinations separately[1]
is contrary to advice from the CDC
[20]
and the American Academy of Pediatrics.[21]
