#cashews #lectins #diet @DrGundry

8.14: health/diet/lectins/cashews:
summary:
. cashews seemed to be a good nut
except they inflamed my mouth;
but Dr. Steven Gundry claims
they are related to legumes
and have the same toxic lectins;
although he also said
the toxicity of legumes can be reduced
by heating them in a pressure cooker,
although he didn't say that applied to cashews.

legumes that are lectin-compatible with your blood type

12.30: web.health/legumes that are lectin-compatible with your blood type:
. mercola keeps referencing the diets that are specific to blood type,
but the theory is honked as a scam by many:
. I found a brief on it:
eg,
. The new blood on the [evolutionary] block,
Type AB combines most of the strengths and weaknesses
of both Type A and Type B.
Chicken and corn has lectins that may render Type Bs
even more susceptible to slow-grow nerve-damaging viruses .
. the lectins of some beans interfere with insulin production:
lentils, garbanzos, pintos and black-eyed peas .
