These Foods Have 'Invisible Thorns' Which Can Rip Apart Your Insides [articles.mercola.com] "Rice, wheat, spelt, and rye, have high levels of defensive glycoproteins known as lectins. Lectins are capable of disrupting the health of the creatures that consume them, often piercing through the protective coating of their digestive tracts, and gaining entry into systemic circulation."

This is one reason why I'm suddenly interested in sprouting grains, beans and seeds. Sprouting not only decreases the lectins but also increases the protein, enzymes, other nutrients and turns a starchy food into a vegetable.

" ALL foods contain lectins. Some are your friends, others neutral, and others may be your enemies. Know your lectins. Avoid your enemies."
