lectins and other antinutrients

[Guest guest]

Hi,

 

I have a question about lectins and antinutrients, are they really

that harmful, especially when the food is cooked?

 

My husband, (who is not vegetarian, but over the course of our

marriage has come believe that it's healthier to eat vegetarian, and

is trying to cut down on his meat consumption) emailed me a couple of

articles from a co-worker of his, toting the Paleotlithic diet. In the

article it states that we shouldn't eat potatoes, grains or beans

especially raw because of these antinutrients. He asked for my

opinion. I'm writing a response but wanted to get input from all of

you first.

 

thanks in advance

That sounds very WAP/Sally Fallon.
