1. Avoid Peanut butter (bean not a nut), cashew butter, sunflower seed butter
Alternative - walnut, halzelnut, tahini, sesame seed, pistachio butter, peeled almond butter
Or add couple drops of coconut aminos to get peanutier taste
2. Avoid Regular or diet soda
Alternative healthy soda recipe - Pellegrino or any sparkling water + 2 tbsp aged balsamic vinegar + squeeze fresh lime (warning - some balsamic vinegar has sugar)
3. Avoid rice + pasta, loaded with lectin. Whole grains worse than regular grains. Grains and starch turn into sugar in your body.
Rice Alternative - millet, sorghum not the sweetener but the grain, cauliflower rice, konjac based rice.
Pasta Alternative - shirataki noodles, konjac noodles, Big Green millet noodles, Cassava pastas, sorghum spaghetti
4. Greek yogurt - allowed the water to drip out so protein content is higher but cow’s milk yogurt sold in USA is made from casein A1 producing cows. Casein A1 is a harmful protein that can damage your gut.
Alternative - goat, sheep yogurt, Buffalo milk yogurt or coconut yogurt. Make sure it’s unsweetened. Add your own vanilla extract
5. Beans. Lectins can be reduced by pressure cooker. Or use Eden or Jovial brand. They come in non-BPA containers. Jovial in glass containers. These brands pressure cook it ahead of time.
NON-Bean Alternative - PINE NUTS have healthy fats and help you lose weight. If you soak pine nuts in water or chicken stock, they get a texture similar to beans. Eg. Use Pine nuts in chili
(oh doc, pine nuts 500g bag at Costco $45 Jan 2023, more than doubled in price from Sept 2021 ($21)
Thank you
Thanks❤
Thanks
What about ice cream! lol
👍🙏
My grandma lived to be almost 91 years old no diabetes or hypertension active until she died of pneumonia. She ate rice, coffee and pan de sal almost every day.
i somtimes really question about the know howthese days.. thnk our worse start.. is factory food and tap water lol avoid that and you can grow healtier like your grandma did :P
Mabuhay
@@psfca what's that?
MY GREAT GRANNY HAS PEANUT BUTTER FOR THE LAST 104 YEARS!! AND SHE'S ALWAYS BEEN SUPER HEALTHY.
Awesome comment 🤭 thank you
Could have been eating something to counter the affects of the peanut butter? Idk the internet is a place full of ideas of men
No need to shout about it 😂
Well all meat was grass fed, nothing was GMO, and minerals we're replaced on farms during her lifetime. Duh. In Morocco Even sugar intake isn't as much required to restrict because of proper farming methods. With proper farming methods lectins, carbs, and sugar heck even beer is probably not much an issue.
@@betweenyellowan_dred right on!!!!!!!!!!!
Eat organic peanut butter on celery almost everyday don't see a problem 62 and completely healthy
Stop eating peanut butter
Ironically, peanut in my culture has another name : longevity bean 😂
which organic peanut 🥜 butter 🧈 do YOU buy/eat brand name please
Two things to consider: (1) Almonds are very high in oxalates, which are toxic. (2) Read the paper "Review of the potential health impact of β-casomorphins and related peptides" published by the European food safety authority. They suggest that A1 caseins are not considered unhealthy to humans.
Great input! Thanks for sharing your knowledge and please keep it coming! I'm kind of wondering, wouldn't it be possible to get rid of lectins in peanuts by pressure cooking them? Wouldn't it be a great if it worked?
I was blown away when I heard Don Colbert talk about his wife giving up tomatoes, and her arthritis in hands (i believe) disappeared.
Ceylon cinnamon is a nice yogurt flavor
I looked into Cassava flour pasta. But I read on the box that the pasta may contain lead. Apparently, the cassava flour is made from a root that absorbs lead from the ground. That's not to say all soil has lead in it but for me it wasn't worth the risk. Pasta made from Konjac flour is great. I believe the company is called Livina.
Wow good to know, going thru a heavy metal detox due to lead poisoning from sanding paint. Thanks for this info
Doc I didn't any further than peanut butter. I am sure you are right but I only eat a couple of tablespoons once or twice a week. I agree that breakfast cereal every day is death. But you have to put your recommendations in perspective.
What are the books you suggest to read on this particular topic with evidence based research and analysis?
I was in hospital for blood clots 12 years ago and the doctor caring for me had me on a 'healthy' diet for the 14 days under his care. Plain Cheerios was one of his choices. I actually began to like them and after reading the label of contents, I was surprised to find that the Cheerios only had 110 cal. per 3/4 of a cup of ceral. This began my search for other cerials with the same or near calorie count. From then on, I have also tried to teach my wife and others about watching the calorie count. Everything that I see in the grocery store, sells best with sugar on it! I get annoyed with the crap that is sold as healthy but only if it has sugar on it ot in it!
Lol you may be the stupidest person alive at first I thought you were trolling or joking, but you actually are serious SMH
If beans are bad how does the diet of the blue zone centenarias work?
I want to go on holiday to dr Gundry house for 2 weeks and eat all his food. I’m in uk and need his food but being so arthritic is hard.
Steven Gundry proposed a lectin-free diet in his book The Plant Paradox (2017). It excludes a large range of commonplace foods including whole grains, legumes, and most fruit, as well as the nightshade vegetables: tomatoes, potatoes, eggplant, bell peppers, and chili peppers.[22][23] Gundry's claims about lectins are considered pseudoscience. His book cites studies that have nothing to do with lectins, and some that show-contrary to his own recommendations-that avoiding the whole grains wheat, barley, and rye will allow increase of harmful bacteria while diminishing helpful bacteria.[24][25][26]
The results his patients experienced are documented fact. They were were not pseudoscience. I have been on a lectin-free diet for almost three months. 62 yrs old, 6 ft tall, went from 208 to 170 lbs eating lectin-free healthy foods, low sugar dark chocolate, good nuts, the healthy fruits, avoiding lectin-bomb flours, unhealthy oils, dangerous vegetables, etc. I do a shot of Moroccan olive oil every day. I feel and look better than I have in 10 years, lots of energy, and I'm wearing jeans from the 80s. Pseudoscience my ass!
Where can I find a listing of the supplements/vitamins you take and recommend? I could not find anything on your website (other than a link to grocery items). Thanks
When I go to bars with my buddies, I order a fake beer: 50/50 club soda and iced tea in a pint glass with no ice and no straw. If it arrives with a lemon wedge, I'll squeeze it into my glass and eat the fruit part.
Dear Doctor, your knowledge is very useful . After following your words I am much better . You are God send for me . Thankyou for helping me
In the 1960-70s we would buy 25lbs bags of unpeeled pine nuts from the Native Paiutes in Bishop/Mammoth area. I think $3.00 a bag. As kids they were fun and a pain to shell. Hard to eat alot. Now at TJ's they're very expensive for just 8oz's.
goat milk kefir at whole foods store - yummy with a couple of blackberries; I add ground flax seed
Zevia soda is made with stevia extract, and has no artificial colors or flavor. All the flavors are clear, including cola. It doesn't taste the same as regular sodas, but it works for me....and I can have one without craving more sweet things or food.
Dr G if I have no peanut alergy are the lectins still doing damage?
Beans not good , yogurt not good , meat not good, rice and grains not good , fish has mercury and sugar of course out of the question. Then what should we eat 😂😂😂
Look on the yes list.
@@user-qh7xq1qf3z thanks for the info
I don’t eat processed food , I usually cook everything from scratch . But I eat almost everything in moderation. Not much red meat though. I don’t eat any fired food or fires at all I had gut issues before too but it’s fixed now . We eat rice in my cultures but we cook it very differently. We soak the rice over night and boil and add olive oils . And the same as bean we pressure cook them .
I was thinking the same thing.i dont have time to research anything.I wish the next video would be a complete list of what we...CAN...eat.
😂😂😂
Pour yourself a big bowl of air and add water. The only thing guaranteed to not add calories or additives.. no.. but hold on?
I learn so much from your videos, this was super helpful. I had no idea about casein A1!
Same here. I learned this not long ago. Now I use milk and yogurt with A2 casin
I've quit peanut butter long ago and don't miss it. NEVER did diet sodas (I worked for Coke for years and knew better!!!) i love Rice wtih some things- but don't do much of it any more -- maybe once or twice a year.. pasta is a big no no.. Never do Greek yogurt or yogurt at all, Don't do a lot of beans-- the last year I've done CARNIVORE- and felt great at first- but now the pains and stuff I lost are BACK with a vengance- and I'm sick of MEAT... can't eat anything any more without breathing issues- pains, and more.. SO-- screw it- I'm 66 and won't be around that much longer anyway- so from now on- I eat what i want- IN MODERATION-- and if it kills me at least i'll go happy. Sick of DIETS, and all the KNOW IT NOTHINGS telling me what is or not good for me. BESIDES for every one that says it's BAD there are more that say it's NOT regardless of what it concerns.... I don't believe any of it any more-- and I was long told DON"T take advice from someone wanting to push a bunch of their special powders and pills on you..
Studies show that the Mediterranean diet is the best for health & longevity.
@@lakaydailey974 Problem is- you can find a "study" that says damn near anything and they have it now so no matter what you eat ONE says it will kill you and the other says it's great... I'm going to ignore ALL of them-- especially if they're selling all kinds of powders and potions to make money off this " deadly" whatever it is..
@@lakaydailey974 that solves WHAT to eat but when to start ad then stop each day and total consumed is actually as (if not more) important.
Peanut butter was the thing that destroyed me. I ate 7 kilo (I ordered 12 kilo gave the other away). I ended up with leaky gut, candida and ultimately arthritis. The only joint I didn't have it was in my jaw. I was a complete mess for about 2 years but with the will to get better (naturally), I did. It was a long hard struggle. I lost so much muscle mass because of the foods I couldn't eat but now I eat whatever I want although I eat healthily anyway (LCHF)
Thanks alot
Stress is causes all kinds of health problems, so stop stressing because you're listening to all these internet doctors stressing u out , eat healthy and quit making these doctors richer
Thanks Dr G! I appreciate your info as always Happy New Year!
Japanese eats rice every day, and majority live over 90yrs , and yogurt meant to be good for your immune system and gut. So not sure what to go by?
Someone should make a petition to change Peanuts into Beanuts. In Swedish we call it Jordnöt which would translate to soilnut which explains it a bit better then Pea-nut
If you're Nut sensitive to butter. Ha ha love it! Thanks for the tips!
Hello Dr. Gundry, you spoke about yogurt thanks. How about goat/sheep/buffalo milk? Is that okay? Noticed they were all pasteurized.
How can I prevent another Diverticulitis episode , had two and been hospitalize , Drs advice surgery , please help me Dr Gundry .
People with celiac desease are allowed to eat factory farmed animal produce, right? How is that possible since it is supposed to contain gluten?
Macadamia nut butter okay??
Thank you Dr. Gundry
people also can have pine nut allergies... i think its called pine mouth. I noticed a metalic taste a while after eating pine nuts.. and it lasted a few days
Dr. Gundry where can I buy these nut butter’s? I’ve Never seen aany of the one U listed. I’ve seen almond butter but Never peeled almond butter, Please show me the name of them & who makes them so I can buy them for I ❤ PB&J’s!
Pistachio butter is great. It's expensive, so I have to use small amounts and I use it less often.
Dr Gaudry, could you tell us what kind and quantity of sugar needs our brain?
sparking water cured my diet coke habit. never turned back.
Please debate Dr McDougal and Dean Ornish , Just for a debate
Thanks for this, your voice tone and breathing are off?
I always speak my almonds, then roast before making peanut butter.
Listening to you , I have just jacked my grocery bill up to 300.00 .
All these CZcams videos driving me crazy 😢! I lost a lot of weight following these healthy diet now I’m working extra hard to grain some back with peanut butter!
which peanut 🥜 butter 🧈 do YOU eat (brand)
Doctor, Are canned beans pressured cooked during the canning process? Thank!
Amy’s pressure cooks their beans according to email I received
Absolutely. Buying dry beans and cooking them at home is more likely where you'd poison yourself with lectins.
Macrobiotic diet is based on wholegrains. And is known to be the healthiest diet.beans are also recommended.
I think you probably need to point out when most of these things are boiled, roasted etc. The amount of lectin is drastically reduced. The next it would be good to talk about quantity as how much are you going to consume. A jar of peanut butter ( very unhealthy) or a scraping of peanut butter on some toast ( by all accounts should be fine) Peanut butter has reduced lectins compared to raw peanuts. The next problem if you are paranoid about lectins in the peanut butter why are you recommending walnut butter etc. It is all just sounding like a religion and becoming devout follower not backed much science/trials. No food as far as I am aware ... is pure and yes some foods need to be prepared before eating, but this kind of elimination diet philosophy is simply fooling yourself. Moderation is key to most of these things.
Yes but if you have gut damage or any digestive related problems, even small amounts of these foods would be harmful for you.
But for healthy people moderate amounts with good preparation seems to be ok , because our parents and older did eat theses foods everyday like grains and beans without any issues, it’s all about how you prepare the foods.
Raw Nuts and seeds will cause absolutely gut damage with the time no doubt about that , but soaked roasted one are pretty fine and healthy.
@@abdulbadenjki5292 Agree, but would like just to add your body does build up some resistance to these foods and when you eliminate from your diet completely your body has less ability to deal with these foods when they are introduced. Moderation is key rather than elimination.
Kind of like weight training or how we combat disease from exposure/vaccines
Peanuts are a legume (a lectin-loaded bean), walnuts are not. Being this misinformed will lead to erroneous conclusions.
Can someone please spell out the 'fornia' cream of wheat alternative?
Pine nuts are mostly super expensive in most stores Dr G- not everyone can afford it and not slime are not good brands too! 😮
omg 500 g bag at Costco $45 😱😱😱double in price within a year. used walnuts to make pesto
@@rayjack exactly ! 👍
Walnuts are a better option
Lucky for me, I can get sheep greek yogurt where I live. So happy about it.
But a question: if I can buy casein A2 yogurt, is that alright then? I have a local farmer here, that has cassein A2 cows that are free ranged. So is that ok then?
Yes, it's ok when it's from casein a2 cows.
Unless you have an Allergy to Casein then it’s better to avoid dairy completely
Blanched almond butter
Any studies of carbonation benefits and problems?
. is regular unsweetened plain yogurt also bad for you or only Greek yogurt ?
I think his point was that regular cows milk yoghurt has the same casein A1 in it as the Greek yoghurt. The Greek yoghurt just has more of it because some water has been removed. So although he was warning about Greek yoghurt, it was the casein A1, which there is more of in Greek yoghurt, that represented the danger..
Is Pea bean and should be avoided as well?
Explain to me, please, the impact of this intel about lectins and the evils of lectins in beans and how this will or does impact the Mexican community and other communities that have beans as a staple of their diet? I visited England and discovered they eat a LOT OF o kidney beans over there. They eat beans at breakfast! How does this knowledge about lectins affect these populations? Cubans" Beans and rice, sounds nice." Thus, generations of people are killing themselves eating beans (including peanuts)? Please elaborate.
will you please name the balsamic vinegar again like you did on another video
I’ve never seen or heard. cauliflower until I came to USA. Japanese eat white rice three times
a day almost all of them, nevertheless, the Japanese longevity is highest in the world so far.
I'v been eating brown / white rice my whole life , nothing wrong with it, get real , everything in moderation! If you're rich u can eat that way! Good luck in the future!
Are White Basmati Rice lectins free ?
Well you need to pressure cook it to be on the safe side.
What’s the latest news on soy products for hypothyroidism including tempeh, etc plz - I’m very confused vegan/vegetarian sad😢
Thanks Dr
Thank you for telling it like it is
Doesn't roasting peanuts eliminate lectin?
Lots of doctors pho pho” Dr Gundry theory about Lectins in food saying it’s ok if you are are allergic to lectins otherwise people who don’t have any problems eating lectin rich foods don’t have to worry/ they won’t get any leaky gut” or any such problems “ one doctor said - so why and how do you check for ke tin allergy doc?
@Nicegram-Me-@DrGundry who is this? Is this spam ? What does this mean ? I won what??? This is first time I am commenting and watch videos here as I don’t always get time to watch all Gundry videos but good work Doc! Appreciate all you do ! But is this you or your office or team or your staff whatever” who is replying? What did I win? 🤣😄😀
What is nice gram?
@@balabalakrishna9960 This is spam and have nothing to do with Dr Gundry. Just ignore it .
Dr. Gundry do you do debates with other doctor/scientist out side your echo chamber? I think it would be great to see doctors and scientist debate all the different information that been coming out between veggies and meat eating. But I know a lot of doctors don't want their ideas challenged which I think is horrible for all. Like science get debated on a lot. Peer review challenges and such. I think it would be very informative to the general public. I would also like to know where you got the research info on the meat creating this unique sugar. In all the research I've done, never run across it, so would appreciate the link to where I can read up on that as well. I'm rather familiar with oxalates and lectin, enjoyed the refresher. Also you said meat can cause colon cancer, I've heard another dr. say the same but nether of you provided the research notes on this. The only thing I had found was research done on dead colon patients. They found massive amounts of fiber still sitting in a pouch in the colon. I'm eagerly waiting for the links so I may read more on what you been teaching us. Thanks kindly.
I eat linguine once and awhile with olive oil and shrimp the only time I eat rice is when I'm in a Chinese restaurant lactose intolerant so never touch you hurt once and awhile buffalo mozzarella stip hying bacon and sausage but I'm addicted french fries
Dr G’s podcasts include talks with other doctors. Sign up for emails which contain links at bottom to studies for the info provided.
In other video you just said that peanuts were very good. In this one you say that peanust are full of lectins... what now?
Yes pine nuts are great but you have to take out a personal loan to afford them 😢
Great explanation on why diet soda increases chances of diabetes! ⭐️
Maybe this video is only for Caucasians or white people.
I live in Asia, we eat regular rice 3 times a day everyday, we eat peanut butter and spaghetti, we're all fine.
My grandma lived to 94 eating the same thing.
Well you will have difficulty to explain me, what exactly you getting from spaghetti or peanut butter or rice on minerals or vitamins.
The wave of obesity is rolling through south East Asia too, further accelerating.
These suggestions won't work for everyone (and he should say that). If you're on a low oxalate diet / many of these foods are off limits. If you have interstitial cystitis again, some here are a no - go. Too many other conditions to name (IBS), (IBD), diverticulitis, chrons ...in fact anyone with ANY condition at ALL that effects their diet should definitely consult with their physician and dietitian before taking ANYONE's advice on what they should or should not eat.
The average family cannot afford those butters . And the kids love peanut butter ! Groceries are going sky high.
What are families to feed the kids ! ? If it wasn't for the school lunch, half the kids would go hungry !
So if cooking removes lectins from (beans)...then quality peanut butter (made just from crushed and ROASTED peanuts) also has the lectin problem mitigated; due to roasting. So why not say this too in the video?
Peanuts grow below the ground. Nuts grow above the ground. I was looking for a better peanut butter and noticed 90% have sugar as the second ingredient. Found one with two ingredients, peanuts and salt. Actually tastes like peanuts. Lectins and cholesterol are everywhere in nature. The all or nothing method has rarely worked. Thin and sickly is not my choice.
Sir bufflo milk is good for health...
Actually we don't need any other species milk. But buffalo makes casein a2 milk so it's atleast safe to drink/eat and has a higher fat content than regular cow milk .
Dr. G thanks

Eden brand bean cans in the local Natural Grocers store say zip about lectins being less in the cans of beans sold there.
neither is this term ( lectins ) found anywhere at their website .
dr gundry would be good to cite the source of his Eden beans info
You can email a company to confirm pressure cooking method, or not
What about oxalate in almond butter? It’s bombshell of oxalate
Don't bother asking a question. Gundry , like Oz or Mecuro is to busy making money to read any comments much less answer them (I know for fact)
I don’t understand how peanuts give no problem to so many people I know- they eat whole roasted peanuts, eat peanut butter with everything and put peanuts in everything- people in India use peanuts ( specially poor to middle class and even rich people - though it’s called the poor man’s protein source)), and they are healthy and fit nothing happens to them. They eat groundnuts( as they are originally called in their shells! How does lectins in peanuts not affect them? Do lectins cause harm to all who eat lectins from peanuts and other nuts doctor G?
If you react to a particular lectin, then it's a problem for you. Gundry's take is from dealing with a unique population of people with gut issues, which means he's not talking to ordinary folks, but people with an unsolved problem. I never had gut issues and tried the lectin free diet for a while and found ZERO effect. So I went back to eating typical foods and noticed nothing different.
Reducing useless carbs is effective at reducing joint inflammation so I eat a lot more fats and proteins and go low carb using intermittent fasting as a tool to reduce glycogen stores when I'm a bad eater. Works for me.
I love these videos, my crohns disease has been pretty much cured by eating your food recommendations! its crazy how messed up the western diet is
My previous doctor just stated add squeezed lemon, onto H2O, ,add electrolytes curbs hunger...lol
Never heard of eating pine nuts 😮
And some are not good brands I meant
I believe that pine nuts are VERY expensive....right?
Dr. Gundry talk to us about coconut milk and how harmful it is for people that produce cholesterol on there own, even eating healthy. 🤷🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🙏🏼☺️
Cholesterol is good. More is better
Every body produces cholesterol. It has a secondary function in body as an antioxidant, for instance. You may be referring to OVER production of cholesterol or the tendency of it to stick on some ppl’s arterial walls. It’s all about BINDING, which cells bind to what. Lectins are proteins that bind and cause poor outcomes. Soy binds similarly. As does corn. Gluten of course as well. And caseina1. All used in making types of glue.
My mother is 10 years older than this guy and looks younger.
Pine nuts are to expensive for most people
Whatever you're eating now is not good for you. This OTHER THING is good for you. Sucks that the OTHER THING costs 2X or more. Unless you're already eating that OTHER THING, in which case need to go on a year long fast to regain your health. But don't drink tap water either, use RO water but make sure you add the essential minerals back in or you're doing yourself a disservice. And getting yourself jabbed every 3 months will undo all the good diet and exercise overnight.

Buy the books, learn to read , learn to cook
My Chinese medicine doctor told me to eat millet for breakfast every day. Since then, my rash has been 90% gone.
omega 6 content too high in nuts, expect the macademia
Pine nuts are like 8× more expensive than beans.
This is just like sebi a lot of no food here is on sebi acid food vs alkaline
I have stage four cancer. Please let me know what to do to get cured.
Just research on CZcams and you will find answers. Dr Berg has amazing info on everything. Definitely do NOT eat sugar as it feeds cancer! Grains also feed cancer.
chemo
Oh that’s so sad! My prayers for you Michele Lemoine ! Stay positive my friend - you can heal if you stay positive- chemo depends on what type cancer you have I guess- I have heard of some breast cancers being cured by immunotherapy and using food diet as cures etc without chemo which is a killer - it’s kills the cancer but also good non cancerous cells too unfortunately - but if there’s no choice - doctors will tell you chemo radiation surgery are the only choice like they did for me- hope you get cured soon! God bless you will stay positive dear- best of luck ! 🙏🙏🙏💖
