I know it’s not a new release, but I’ve spent some of my reading time this week plowing through Dr. Steven Gundry’s The Plant Paradox for the second time in a month.
Quite frankly his central premise, focused about the problematic immunogenicity of lectins (which are much more broadly represented than you might initially think in the foods we commonly consume , and not just those eating a SAD diet either), is a fascinating one, and in fact one that I’m convinced I saw hard evidence of during my practice years.
I’m intrigued enough to start plowing through the book’s scientific references and digging a bit deeper into the immunobiology and gastroenterology discussed, and my lovely wife and I very well may start an 8-week trial of his plan to minimize potentially problematic lectins and run a quick n=2 sample trial.
If anyone has spent some time personally following Gundry’s plan I’d love to chat with you…
