Cooking, especially with wet high-heat methods like boiling or stewing, or soaking in water for several hours, can inactivate most lectins. Lectins are water-soluble and typically found on the outer surface of a food, so exposure to water removes them. You're welcome.

Before Gundry my favorite snack was 12 grain whole wheat bread, Smart balance peanut butter, and sugar free jelly. I thought I was doing something right, but some how I was 350lbs and eating Ibuprofen for my aching knees. That was almost 4 years ago. I lost 150 lbs and my knees feel fine without out any pain meds. I don't ever want to go back. Thanks Dr. Gundry

I stopped eating gluten, sugar and nightshades. Zero pain from a pain level 8/10 scale. Just diet change works for me.

I'm so glad you're finally addressing the issue of oxalates, lectons, and anti nutrients in plant based foods.

How about ėating just water? 😊

I grew up eating refined floor, white bread, peeled fruits & veggies, & refined grains like white rice. Meat was seen as the most important food. I was malnourished, & sickly. I can promise you ,I will never eat that way again.

At 82 I've succeeded in maintaining good health. Regarding foods I recognize the need to avoid lectins, but I also recognize the nutrition value in lectin-heavy foods. Bell peppers de-seed automatically and can be peeled, I've learned to do it for this and for other veggies as well. I also include a bladderwrack kelp drink with meals.

OMG, I don't know what to eat anymore. I've been staying with whole wheat and eating the peels - now it's all bad?

It’s important to carefully remove the outer husk of each lentil individually.

Us Myanmar people always soak our rice for a few minutes and rinse out before cooking them. We also do the same with peas and beans before cooking them, but we soak them much longer and rinse more often.

I did not really believe Dr Gundry until the day after eating homemade chili with beans, onions, peppers, and tomatoes with skin on. The next day my whole body felt like it had rusted and felt achy hurt all over. Even getting out of bed was hard. I hadn't eat any type of beans or tomatoes for over three months. So when I got this reaction I decided to take Dr Gundry's advice.

I could spend hours and hours watching your video Dr. Gundry ... I always learn something new. thank you and as always you look SPECTACULAR 👍🏼

Gotta tell you doc, I love the blue glasses!

I am glad to see him saying this things like this. Because for centuries certain cultures have been eating beans and rice and are extremely healthy. It's all about how to prepare and cooking the food .. we many times eat foods our families never ate and we really don't know how to prepare them correctly or combine them as well. Also I know people that follow things the dr. Says and end up avoiding many foods .. combined that with intermittent fasting and anemia is the result

I appreciate your knowledge. I need my fellow addition, Neurologist trained, and value all of the nutrition advice given by experts. This is some thing we lacked in medical school. Now, the confusion is the foods we’ve been eating all along are no good for us? I do believe the more we try to empower our self with knowledge, the more confusing it can be. Tomatoes and polyphenols are actually base of our cooking. I am of East Indian origin. Moderation and maybe even less than moderation would be the most effective diet in general. I was just watching a video by Mick the vegan who reports that diets from meat can also cause insulin resistance. No, I’m thoroughly confused. The best diet is probably what my body would respond to most efficiently. I guess if we don’t have a health problem then eating in moderation or less than moderation would be most appropriate. I agree with the previous podcast statement that mental health and good nutrition go hand-in-hand. In the neurological world, it is so evident that people who have poor diet, obese, nutritionally deficient, have not only mental health but also autoimmune disorders. We can see that across the room

My pressure cooker is one of the best appliances in my kitchen. I just got your books today and started to read them Interesting... Thank you

I recently started combining the low Lectin and the Blood Type Diet for a upgraded nutrition intake. Fine tuning Nutrition can have quite noticeable effects in many areas of life.

Dr. G, authentic / traditional sour dough breads are made with fermented dough . Artisan bakers can tell you that this making this “fermented gluten” is a real art form!!

Great info!

I love my pressure cooker, my budget and overall my family. Your information is of great help. Thank you!

What's everyone's opinion on "eat for your blood type" plan/📖 book.....same principle says that physician.....that's the best I've ever looked/,felt....am B blood; 😲 wow,foods that are poison to my body,chicken!,corn,tomato's; and those were my fav....He also spoke A LOT about lectins in his books...☮️

Thankyou Dr. Gundry . I'm now enjoying sauerkraut. I'd like to try pickled cucumbers again. And I'm glad to know I could have sourdough bread . If I'm in a restaurant. I bake my own crispbread at home with sorghum / millet flour and now teff flour since you recommended it . I find it has a strong, good flavour, best not to add flavouring to it . K

This is so eye opening to me. When I was growing up, and even now you always hear that whole grains are better than refined. I had never heard of lectins until I found you. I am supposed to be gluten free, so I am trying to go grain free to begin with; however, at least know I know that if I do eat any grains, they will be refined to help with the lectins. I also appreciate the info on pressure cooking other veggies :)

Great content. Thanks for the info. Also, nice glasses!

Thank you Doctor for the information

Happy birthday DOCTOR!

Great info 👌🙂

Great job, it will help many people. We are following your lectin free methods. Most of the people consuming white Rice, so please make video on how to remove lectin from rice. Thank you so much sir.

Love ❤️ you DR Gundry,

Thank you. Nice short to the point video.

O correto é deixar o alimento de molho por 2 dias porque alguns alimentos só com mais de 1 dias que as lectinas realmente saem , se deixar de molho e não sair absolutamente nada de dentro delas, e você não ver nada por cima da agua é porque você precisa deixar de molho por mais horas, até que seja visivel algo por cima da agua , fica a dia ai

Wow!! Thank you Doctor I truly appreciate all you do!!

Great information Dr Gundry!

Thank you !

I’ve heard all the nutrients are in the skin of most fruits and veggies, when we removes we getting rid of all the good parts and just left with sugary sweet parts.

Very important informations ! Thank you so much!

I have been waiting For dr gundry to tell us how to remove the lecithin from foods and finally he has done this Changed my outlook on him. Shalowm.

Thank you so much for this helpful information !!!

Beautiful Dr. Gundry!

Thanks for sharing this video, interesting information.

Thank you so much Dr Gundry, I have just made the purchase of Complete-3 after watching Stew Peters and Karen Kingston show.

Wow thank you for sharing your videos 🙏

You are wonderful Doc! Merci.....

Nice Information Appritiate your efforts thanks

great tips

This is fantastic information Dr. Gundry. Thank you. ☺️

Great info, Doc! Thank you!!!!! P.S. Whole Grain or 'Whole Gain?'

That was good and knowledgeable information about lectins. Thank You, Sir.

Luckily, Peeling and deseed veggies are traditional ways at my home! My grandparents and parents always did but we did not know its a way to move lectin and protect our health Thank you very much, Dr. Gundry for sharing important information for our healthy habits

I love those blue glasses and the information

Typically soaking and just boiling would remove enough lectins for the average consumer. Unless you happened to be extremely sensitive. Soaking is often best done overnight. Soak them up one time and then throw away off the old water and fill up with new water before you sleep. Then wash them 1 more time before preparation, that is good enough for most cases.

Thank you so much 😊

Great man❤

Thanks so much for your helpful information God bless you always

Well, this a keeper👍👍

Thank you for best informations🙏🏻after cooking in pressure cooker we should change the water or not?

Thank you.

Love this !

Hull, and grain, not Haul, and ‘gain’ .

Thanks Dr. Gundry. You answered my question. I wanted to know about the white potato. I was told you should keep the skin on as it has all the nutrients in it such as potassium. Now I know what to do. I've seen many people for number of years and my mother always peel the skin off the potato. Maybe they don't like eating the skin. The skin or peel has lectins in it! I will now peel the skin off if I boil a potato or should I wish to eat it with the peel on pressure cook it. Pressure cooking will get rid of most of the lectins in the peel.

Thank you dr

Thanks!

Using a 2 prong chefs fork you can hold a tomato above a gas stove flame and turn til the peel starts to crack.It peels off real easy then,just pull it off.

Good stuff here

Please write a book on all lectin free foods. One chapter on low lectin foods. Some methods on lowering Lectins. PLEASE PLEASE

I soak my strawberries, tomatoes and other in mason jars. Really help me with my rheumatoid arthritis striking.

this man holds the key to life.and it fits many locks.

What's your take on soaking beans overnight with a teaspoon of sodium bicarbonate? This should also help reduce the toxic parts of beans.

I didn’t know about the bread and rice. I’m shocked honestly.

A very thorough, educational and comprehensive video but....I'm on the anti - arthritis diet and tomatoes, potatoes, bell peppers, breads with gluten and sugar, pasta...it's on the net...are not healthy for me. Peanuts, marinara sauce, spicy foods...I've given away lots of food.

I just soak chia seeds and eat it. Looks like I have to rinse it a few times now

Your approach is quite mind-boggling, and makes so much sense! I will enjoy my next slice of white sourdough toast!

thanks

Thanks Doctor!

it’s rare to eat foods with a high amount of active lectins. This is because they’re usually cooked properly.

Thank you soo much abt reducing lectins.❤

Thank you for the information Dr G. What about psyllium husk/fiber, is it high in Lectin? Will double washing and soaking help remove the Lectins from Lentils?

Are all pressure cookers created equal? I’ve decided to buy one but I have a choice paralysis because there’s so many options, Is there one you recommend?

If you make your own bread, using organic white wheat flour, and real yeast, does that destroy enough lectins to make it OK for the Plant Paradox diet? I have been following Dr. Gundry's plan for 3 years and have never felt better in my life. Thank you Dr. Gundry and team:)

How long do you need to pressure cook items for to reduce lectins? Does it vary by ingredient? Also, where do the lectins go after being released from the food in the pressure cooker? Should we toss the liquid or are the lectins dissolve and it can it be eaten (if you made chili with beans in the pressure cooker, for example)?

Wondering if Dr Gundry has any recommendations for Chronic Gastritis?

How about sprouted grain bread?

In the past you had spoken about making baked beans with pine nuts. Do you have any type of recipe to share? Possibly with the option of making in a slow cooker?

Wow, you are handsome Doc Gundry!!!

Remember to pray

How about the lectin in green olives? How do you remove it? Fermenting it? How? Thanks !

Hello from Denmark, thank you for a well explained presentation! You din't mention fish - what is your opinion about eating fish? Best Marianne

Thanks

Thank you Doctor GUNDRY, you are my best friend. Ana Maria

Thank you...so much for helping us to be healthy....you're like an angel send from GOD.

At 3:05 did you say meats? Thanks for so much great info.

Thanks. So interesting. Wishing you all the best.🇮🇱

Thanks Dr,but what can women under risk of breast cancer eat as seeds ,vegetables,meat ...?! Please help us Dr

On the bread- add refined NON GMO

How about sprouting the grains and such? Will that help remove lectins? I've heard it's a great method to get rid of them?

I followed your program from your all books since 5 months ago but my bp still high and I always have constipation also there is a change in liver enzyme. How can I make appointment with you for consultation.

Change water 2 to 3 times, or better let it soak over night. Use pressure cooker

Hi Dr. Gundry! When using the pressure cooker are the lectins destroyed or washed out...meaning do I have to drain any liquid the food was cooked in as you would do after soaking? Thank you!

How often can we drink kombucha? I am grateful for the info.
