Diet: That's what the Plant Paradox diet is about

Halting Lectins: The Plant Paradox Diet

The plant's paradox diet is controversial among nutritionists as it eliminates all nutritional nutrients that are generally considered healthy. Whole grains and some fruits and vegetables such as tomatoes, eggplant and raw beans are the cause of allergies and intestinal diseases, according to American diet developer Gundry. The lectins contained therein, that is to say certain proteins which are mainly found in plants, but also in certain foods of animal origin, are responsible for them

. According to Gundry, diet change leads to a huge increase in diseases such as cancer, dementia and Parkinson's disease. Nutrition without lectin can provide relief by inhibiting inflammation, supports intestinal health and, at the same time, helps with weight loss. The cardiologist himself lost 70 pounds, Kelly Klarkson lost 20 pounds using The Plant Paradox.

Is the diet without lectin unhealthy?

Nutrition expert Dawn Johnson, however, sees the hype around the food trend as critical. "It's not the missing lectins that promote weight loss – it's because people on the diet do not eat pizza and baked goods," Johnson said, adding that studies have shown that cooked foods containing lectins have no adverse effect on health.

Banish foods such as whole grains, kefirs or certain seeds simply because they contain lectins, instead of consuming Whole wheat products can be detrimental to your health because they raise blood sugar and contain fewer nutrients and minerals.
