Lectine: are they really dangerous?
There are very few foods that we can define as “perfect”.
In fact, most foods have positive and negative aspects.
Lectins belong to the category of “bad” things.
Lectins are a family of proteins found in almost all foods, especially in legumes and cereals.
It has been seen that frequent consumption of large quantities of lectins can damage the lining of the digestive system.
Some say that this causes an increase in intestinal permeability and is linked to autoimmune diseases.
It is true that lectins are harmful, but this is only part of the story. For example, it is easy to eliminate lectins with the right methods of food preparation.
