[quote=Anonymous]It seems pretty controversial as anything other than a weight loss diet. I'd like to see more research on the diet and autoimmune- there doesn't seem to be much. On the contrary, there is a lot of evidence that not eating some of the foods you are supposed to cut, like tomatoes, beans, etc., means you are cutting out a lot of benefits too.

The lectin theory doesn't really hold up. The properties that Gundry is concerned about in legumes disappear when cooked. So cook your beans...but doesn't seem to be an argument for cutting them.

My bet is this will be a fad. I'm doing my best to limit/cut out processed foods, added sugars, and gluten, and all dairy except for full fat organic yogurt. I'm managing my stress, getting plenty of sleep, and doing exercise that helps my mental and physical health which for me is yoga and walking. I don't believe cutting beans or tomatoes will get me where I want to be. But I'll be watching to see if there is additional evidence or more studies.[/quote]
