This is an unusual video for me. Normally I try to stay out of the â??diet warsâ? and just stick to bringing you the latest science. There are roughly 100,000 papers published on nutrition in the in peer-reviewed medical literature every year. We have a hard enough time just trying not to fall too far behind with that. Let me know what you think. Would you rather I do more of these reactive-type videos?

Youâ??ll note I never really addressed Dr. Gundryâ??s thesis about lectins. Thatâ??s what the next two videos are aboutâ??stay tuned:
â?¢ How to Avoid Lectin Poisoning (http://www.nutritionfacts.org/video/h...)
â?¢ Are Lectins in Food Good or Bad for You? (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/are-l...)
