Most people think of digestion as something that happens only when food enters the body. Eat a meal, feel full, absorb nutrients, move on. But digestion is not a simple on-off process.
Most people think of sleep and food as two separate pillars of health. You eat during the day. You sleep at night.
Many people begin a low-lectin lifestyle because of obvious reactions. Bloating after meals. Joint stiffness the next morning. Brain fog that seems to drift in and out without warning.
Low-lectin eating often begins with a surge of motivation. The food lists are printed. The pressure cooker moves to the front of the counter. Labels are scrutinized with care that borders on suspicion.
Digestive discomfort is often blamed on what we eat. Ingredients get scrutinized, food groups are eliminated, and preparation methods become central to the conversation.
