What’s inside: a clear, science-backed case against lectins

In plain language and with the authority of an experienced clinician, cardiothoracic surgeon Dr. Steven Gundry explains that gluten is only one member of a larger family of problematic plant proteins called lectins. Found in seeds, grains, skins, rinds, leaves, nuts, beans and some conventional dairy products, lectins evolved to protect plants from predators. Dr. Gundry shows how these proteins can trigger inflammation, weight gain, digestive upset, and long-term health problems when consumed regularly.
