In this video, Dr. Berg talks about anti-nutrients in vegetables and other foods. Plants naturally develop certain defense mechanisms to help them survive for a long time and to prevent insects and other predators from consuming them.

Phytoestrogens
• Certain plants like flax and soy have these chemical compounds that could create a little birth control effect in insects.

Phytic Acid
• It is another anti-nutrient chemical that prevents the absorption of many minerals including zinc, iron, calcium, etc.
• It is in seeds and nuts (in the bran part).
• It has the property of being a chelator – which binds with certain chemicals specifically iron.
• IP6: http://bit.ly/2Gu1sYy

Lectins
• These are certain proteins in plants that are used as a protective mechanism because they break down certain parts of the digestive tract and put holes in the gut lining which creates a leaky gut.
• They are in nights shades, white potato, soy, brown rice, grains
• Avoid lectins if you have an autoimmune condition.

Oxalates
• These are chemical compounds that our body also makes that can bind with calcium and create crystals which create a lot of problems with kidney stones and even inflammation, and arthritis and could accumulate in different parts of the body.

Saponins
• It is a detergent-like that will dissolve a cell membrane
• It is another protective mechanism in certain plants – in nightshades, legumes, amaranth, and buckwheat.
