Lectins even have a thing with Cardio Vascular Disease

Here’s a thought Dr. Google–Raw beans simmered at low heat, such as in a slow cooker or under cooking the beans will not remove all the lectins. Soaking raw beans for several hours to soften the beans disables the action of the lectins. Canned beans are cooked and packaged in liquid so they are also low in lectins. Some body enzymes degrade some lectins. Sprouting grains, beans and mechanically removing the outer hull of beans, and wheat grains are good control methods too. Lectins have some good properties. They act as antioxidants, slow carbohydrate digestion and absorption, preventing a sharp blood sugar rise and high insulin levels. Non toxic low amounts of certain lectins helps stimulate gut cell growth in patients who are unable to eat for long periods, and in anti cancer treatment, due to the ability of lectins to cause cancer cell death. Lectin containing foods. such as legumes, whole grains, and nuts are associated with lower rates of cardio vascular disease, weight loss and type 2 diabetes. These foods are rich sources of B vitamins, protein, fiber, minerals, and healthy fats, therefore the benefits outweigh the risks. There are still a lot of confounding variables, depending on what is removed in processing and cooking, and with individual issues of the person eating the products. Do your homework.
