因為偶然的原因,聽了一本書叫《The Longevity Paradox》覺得有趣,就繼續聽了作者的另外一本書(NY BEST SELLER):《The Plant Paradox》。
這後一本書,叫人不能吃很多東西:全穀食物,茄科蔬菜,所有類似水果(就是有籽兒的)的蔬菜,所有豆類,豆腐,豆製品(但是納豆,天貝類發孝食品可以食用))都有高含量LECTIN。LECTIN 會導致許多疾病。
隨後想看看別人怎麽說,這一看不得了,現在我幾乎完全不相信了!
為什麽?
反駁的觀點有幾個:
1. 普遍認為這是個偽科學 (pseudoscience)!
2. 似乎作者沒有一篇有分量的研究報告,比如JAMA,NIH,沒有一篇!隻有在他任主要職務的 American Heart Association (AHA) 雜誌上有所謂的poster presentation.
3. 書本裏麵,都是“成功故事”(success story). 引經據典比較弱。
4. 書本以居高臨下,權威式的口氣和語言(尤其是AUDIO BOOK 版本中的語氣),可能有欲蓋彌彰的嫌疑。
5. 一位Cornell 很有名的營養學教授寫了長篇大論駁斥這個飲食:

6.網上好幾個駁斥的文章:
6.1 Ask the Expert: Clearing Up Lectin Misconceptions - Today's Dietitian Magazine
6.2 What Is the Plant Paradox Diet, and Does It Work?
https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/plant-paradox-diet
(結論是:However, there’s not much scientific evidence to support the idea that all lectin-containing plant foods are harmful. In fact, many foods with lectins are extremely nutritious)
6.3 How Much Lectins Does A Pressure Cooker Kill - Design Farm House
https://designfarmhouse.com/how-much-lectins-does-a-pressure-cooker-kill/
(講如何通過烹調來去除凝集素。但是書本說,對於豆類,隻有 PRESSURE COOKER 才能去除!茄科類根本就任何方法都去除不了。但是這篇文章說PRESSURE COOKING 可以去除豆類和茄科裏麵的凝集素。平常的COOKING 不能去除番茄和青椒(茄科裏的兩種)裏的凝集素)
6.4 Lectins | The Nutrition Source | Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health
(結論:However, there is very limited research in humans on the amount of active lectins consumed in the diet and their long-term health effects.;It is possible that one who has an underlying digestive sensitivity, such as irritable bowel syndrome, may be more likely to experience negative symptoms from eating lectins and other anti-nutrients.)
6.5 Dr. Gundry’s Plant Paradox Debunked: 7 Science-Based Reasons It’s a Scam - Legion Athletics
完全駁斥這本書的

最後說說,在AMAZON 書評上有人說吃了這個飲食後濕疹(ECZEMA)好了
可能對某些少數有某些特殊疾病的人有幫助吧!
