I have questions on nightshades. I believe tomatoes are nightshades, should I avoid them or try to cook them first and eat them? Should I avoid hot red pepper powder and paprika powder as well considering they are night shades?

I’m confused. Why Okra's seed not have lectin on like the nightshades ones? them may I learn pls? Thank you so much & My Fave Dr Gundry.I believe him from day one. Thank you 🙏💙🌹
I get that you are concerned with lectins. I would greatly appreciate it if you would include oxalates in fruit and veggies in your rankings. And add what we can do to reduce oxalates. (Boil 10-15 min, drain, discard water. Then cook according to your recipe. It doesn’t reduce nutrients by much but does reduce oxalates.

Since I grow fruits and vegetables, I have learned that if it comes from a flower, it's a fruit. But your identification method is much better, that any plant containing seeds is a fruit.

parsnips are an acceptable resistant starch, cabbage bok choy swiss chard are good cruciferous veggie. Rutabaga is a good post biotic veg. Nothing g wrong g with lettuce but arugula is better
So my taste buds were right when I told my mom I don't want any peas thank you. At least she was nice enough to let me skip them as long as I finished off the rest of the food. I am also not a fan of eggplant as well. Great list of things to get and enjoy without any secondary effects in the intestinal tract. Thank you Dr. Gundry for sharing your information with us.
Thank you Dr. Gundry this helped my kids to understand better why we don’t eat certain things anymore. I also grew up on lots of potatoes and tomatoes, bell peppers, cucumbers, etc and felt always drained. Later lived in Seoul and after getting used to the diet there I noticed my body felt lighter and better. Never knew why until I read your books. Thank you.

Very helpful… but aren’t we forgetting a whole group of vegetables… leafy greens? Kale, arugula, red romaine lettuce, dandelion leaves, collard greens, etc.
All the vegetables and fruits that were in the column F surprised me. Who would have thought that they are bad to poisonous to our health. Thank you Dr. Gundry for this wonderful information.
many thanks Doc, i am so glad i found your channel. the bell peppers caught me off guard there. i am trying to reverse my fatty liver and this video was so important to me.
The top line has almost all of my favorites but I have IBS-D and am working towards a diet that will minimize my attacks. So my doctor suggested not eating brócoli, cauliflower, and Brussels sprouts. Have you got a video that addresses IBS. Great videos - I subscribed recently. And thanks in advance.
Thank you so much for sharing your story. We will pass this feedback on for future video content. You can also view all of Dr. Gundry's videos on his RU-vid channel here: ru-vid.com
Since I remember myself, I couldn't eat onion in ANY form. It always ended with disaster - diarrhea, nausea, bloating for one to few days. Recently I finished SIBO & Helicobacter treatment including low FODMAP diet. The outcome is I feel much much better, but now I don't tolerate mannitol - I can't eat sweet potatoes, cauliflower or mushrooms. My dream now is to fix my guts, so I can enjoy those healthy veggies.
Your SUPER Gut Instinct Tier system is supremely awesome ‼️ 10:40 😅 So masa is safe to eat? 🤔✨ 14:30 ⁉️ Funny how one of my parents did NOT eat the corn that she cooked us.. Surprised most by Both Bell peppers and cucumbers.. so cannot eat the seed on it?
We're so happy to hear you've been enjoying these videos. Traditionally made masa is fine! Yes, bell peppers and cucumbers contain lectins in their seeds.
Plants with high fructose content we call fruits and those with low fructose content we call vegetables but they are the same thing in different concentrations
Imo, the term "vegetable" has an appropriate and coherent use only within the traditional classification of the three kingdoms of nature. In this traditional sense, everything in nature can be classified into one of the following categories: 1. Animal Kingdom. 2. Vegetable Kingdom (plants). 3. Mineral Kingdom. Within this framework, fruits are parts of plants, and thus, they fall under the category of vegetables. Therefore, I argue that the word "vegetable" should only be used in the system of kingdoms. Consequently, fruits should be considered vegetables. All parts of plants, including fruits, are vegetables because they belong to the Vegetable Kingdom in the traditional classification of nature.
You can have cucumber 🥒 but peeled & seeded only as he said. & small ones only. Same with zucchini & bell peppers. Sure cabbage is fine as it's a cruciferous vegetable. Not pumpkin or squash per his book. Though I have peeled & seeded small yellow squash.
Dr. Gundry Black / White and Chili Pepper is Superfoods or not? and Chayote, Bitter Gourd, Turnip, yatcon, seaweed, swiss chard, spinach, treviso, zucchini, radicchio, mustard greens, microgreens, endive, collard green, arugula?

Another comment there gives the opposite answer to the same question, and in my opinion it is more correct. "Yes, zucchini have lectins, but they can easily be removed, by peeling the skin and removing the seeds."
Hi there! Dr. Gundry does not recommend pea protein as a protein source due to the amount of lectins in peas. We recommend our ProPlant shake for a plant based source of protein!
My day is now somewhat ruined!! I love all of these fuits/veggies with the exception of peas, those I can live without. So surprised by this info. Great video
We apologize for ruining your day with this information about your favorite foods. Remember, there are many other tasty fruits and veggies to try! Thanks for watching our video! 🍎🍓🥕
Mr Gundry! I have a question: can a diet heavy in veggies and combined with modarate amount fruits daily cause irritaion, gas and bloating in small and large intestines ? Can we overfeed gut bacteria with these so called superveggies ?
We love this question! Adding it now to our list to possibly cover in a future RU-vid video. Don't forget to subscribe to our channel for more exciting videos!
How about overdoing those super veggies ? I dont believe that veggies are auper foods at all. Too much indegistabel materia in them, cuasing gas and bloating.
Usually because your microbiome was trashed from junk food and highly processed food and animal products. Plants free your good gut bacteria. If you don't have enough, you'll likely have problems. You can add enzymes to help too. Many plants are, in fact, super foods.
Interesting question! We'll add this to our growing list of questions for Dr. Gundry to possibly answer in an upcoming RU-vid video! Don't forget to subscribe to our channel and turn on alerts so you never miss an update.
You can eat them but they really need to be deseeded and the skin removed as these both have toxins in them which isnt great for your gut. They are from the nightshade family and contain lectins. Lectins possibly cause increased gut permeability (leaky gut) and drive autoimmune diseases. I personally prefer to avoid them where/when possible.
