By now you've probably heard all about how toxic plant proteins - called lectins - can wreak havoc on your gut and even cause serious autoimmune diseases.But ever since I published my best-seller The Plant Paradox back in 2017, people have been asking me this one question:"Where did your idea about lectins come from?"Well, I didn't discover lectins. In fact, the science behind lectins is over 100 years-old!But I was one of the first people to theorize that lectins are THE major culprit behind so many of our modern ailments.So on today's episode of the Dr. Gundry Podcast, I'm going to take you on a journey of discovery. I'll explain the origins of my lectin theory of disease, share useful tips and tricks for cutting lectins out of your diet, and discuss the case studies that helped solidify my research.You're also going to hear me answer some of my fiercest critics and address the serious scientific scholarship underpinning everything I've written about lectins.
