Yep, this is true. Peeling tomatoes and de-seeding makes them plant paradox friendly for example. Interestingly enough pressure cooking destroys the lectins also. The book is good, some very interesting ideas and information. I read it twice and have employed much of what he recommends. There are going to be times when you have some A1 dairy or feedlot beef but for the most part just understanding the concepts makes lectin avoidance quite easy. It’s a natural transition from keto anyway in my opinion as we’ve already cut out 90% of the worst offenders. Most keto folks would just need to cut out a few more things to be 100% compliant (seed oils, nightshades and other fruits, some types of nuts and seeds, and A1 dairy).
Did you know that tomatoes are from North America and were rejected by much of Europe until maybe 100-150 years ago? And that most if not all canned nightshades are peeled and de-seeded partly for this reason. I know right, mind blown haha
