SuperFood or SuperFad is Dr. Gundry's new YouTube series where he dives into the wild world of food and diet trends to determine the truth on popular foods. On today’s episode, I’m here to talk about everyone’s favorite high protein grain — Quinoa.

So what’s the deal with quinoa… and is it a superfood — or a super-fad?

Quinoa has been touted for a while now as a “superfood”. But the truth is quinoa is filled with dangerous lectins and is far from super – especially when it comes to supporting your health.

Dietary lectins can be found in all sorts of so-called “health” foods. You’ll find lectins in everything from raw kidney beans to white rice, from wheat germ to processed foods like sourdough bread. Even your favorite dairy products can contain lectins if the animals that produce the milk you drink consume lectin-rich feed. And the best thing to do when you come across lectin-rich foods like quinoa is to avoid them.

I have always eaten pomagranites since I was a child. I'm glad to know that they are not a "SUPER FAD"! I would like to hear more with this series.

Soak it and rinse it and cook it slowly and the gut issues associated with consuming quinoa are gone for most people

[ildevaniosoares]

Thank you DR Gundry ! Quinoa superfoods! BRAZIL

[DerekBoldiene]

I was told as long you keep your carb count balanced you could a little Quinoa.

I like the fact it is gluten free. It does have a good amount of fiber. 5 Grams is pretty good I think as you eat in moderation. To get rid of lectins if you can it should okay.
Dr. Gundry is ones my roll models

Thank you doctor I bought some today. I would take it back to the store.

[debtracton]

Dr. G, why did you not mention that soaking and pressure cooking can be used to cook the lectins out of quinoa? Has something changed?

[robynporter]

Hey Dr Gundry I would like to learn more about Spirulina. 😊
