I am mildly familiar with a Dr. Steven Gundry. In everything I have seen on him he is on a jihad against LECTINS——NOT LEPTINS.

LEC not LEP

They have nothing to do with each other.

Ehh? Is ABC misreporting this?

I found his theory/view of nutrition and diet to be quite interesting-—without in any way endorsing them, using them, or even saying they belong to that class of things we call “realities”. It is well thought out and plausible, though, IMO.

Something new to worry about when you eat.
Remember Cyclamates? These were part of a particular artificial sugar. People were warned about them in the late 70’s.

Gundry looks at certain whole grains, beans, tomatoes, peppers, eggplant and potatoes to name a few as foods that resist digestion and cause gut challenges, inflammation and weight gain.

All the above should be removed from the diet of those who suffer from kidney stone development. (Although the potatoes listed are the lowest in oxalate content).

”Beans are so powerful...”

Ain’t that the truth.

More craziness.

Humans have eaten these foods for thousands of years.

Now they are problems?

Welcome to today’s “you’re all going to die unless you eat, drink and/or do exactly what I say” story.

***************
If certain foods resist digestion, how does that cause weight gain? I have come across this before and it has me wondering. It seems like if it passes through undigested, it would not cause weight gain because you aren’t absorbing the calories and carbs.
