Episode 11.

In this episode, we discuss the review paper Dr. Minich co-authored with Weston Petroski about anti-nutrients. In this review, they took a deep dive into the scientific literature and debated what they gleaned. They also suggest how to prep the foods in question if you are concerned or feel you don't respond well to certain foods. Nutrition is very individual at the end of the day.

We also discuss the emerging literature on the benefits of "anti-nutrients" for the gut lining, colon cancer, and inflammatory markers. And the more recent discovery that oxalates chelate heavy metals? Nature is so cool. I hope you enjoy this conversation!
