While research continues on how to overcome a present allergy to peanuts, the best option is to prevent the allergy from occurring. Recent research has shown that’s possible.

This week will be about beans and nuts, a tired ad campaign, and some exciting new research. Let’s begin with the advertising retread. A retired pediatric cardiologist started talking about the dangers of lectins in foods, especially beans and nuts, years ago. They were the reason you had bloating and other digestive issues.

Close to 70% of all adult Americans, as well as an increasing number of children, are overweight or obese. The solution for society has been as elusive as it is simple: eat less. Eat better. Move more. But there’s one more part that’s the problem: for life. We could review the reasons why, but let’s […]
