After spending months thinking about it, you’ve finally decided to start eating healthier. You’ve committed to loading up on fresh fruit, veggies, whole grains, and legumes because you know that these are the best foods for your body. But just as you’re going to the grocery store, you hear a word that stops you in your tracks.
Antinutrients.
“Plant foods have a ton of antinutrients, and they are bad for you!!”
Can we even eat anything anymore?
Thankfully, I’m here with the science on antinutrients— will I bust the antinutrient myth?
Antinutrients explained:
Antinutrients are plant compounds that interfere with the absorption of nutrients. They are naturally found in many plant-based foods and are designed to protect the plant from being eaten or infected. When you eat them, they can block your body from absorbing other nutrients from your intestines, which decreases the amount of nutrition you get from your food.
Here are the most common antinutrients in plants:
Glucosinolates, which are found in cruciferous vegetables like broccoli or cabbage
Lectins, which are found in seeds, legumes, and grains
Oxalates, which are found in many vegetables, specifically in leafy greens like spinach
Phytates or phytic acid, which are found in seeds, legumes, and grains
Tannins, which are found in tea, coffee, wine, and chocolate
Now I get that all of this doesn’t sound great— but are antinutrients actually bad for you? Are lectins bad for you? What about phytic acid? Is spinach healthy?
I answer these questions in this video, talk about why you should eat antinutrients, and discuss the problem with antinutrients.
