Welcome back to the Anxion Health Podcast, where we educate you on real health solutions

that will help transform the way you live, feel, and overcome disease naturally.

I'm your host Courtney Versage, along with Dr. Josh Axe and Dr. Chris Motley.

We're so happy you've joined us. Let's dive into today's episode.

Hey guys, welcome back to the podcast. Super excited to have you here. We are talking about

anti-nutrients today, and you may be thinking anti-nutrients. We always talk about nutrient density

and picking produce and animal products that have a high amount of micro-nutrients and macro-nutrients

and minerals. But there are such things as anti-nutrients that can be found in all plant

matter. So these are something that actually kind of hit the headlines a little bit more recently,

particularly with this paleo movement. And even Dr. Steven Gundry came out with a book

not so long ago called The Plant Paradox, and I feel like that really is what hit the headlines

for anti-nutrients. Prior to that, these were not really talked about. So what I want to do is

kind of set the stage for you and talk about what these anti-nutrients are, and then give you a

breakdown of which plants contain the highest amounts and really give you a good understanding of

what that means for your health. Because that is really where you're going to learn

if these plant compounds are really working for you or against you, and that way you can make

the best decisions when it comes to shopping for produce. We know that we call, we always say that

food is medicine, right? And plants are a big part of that. So when we talk about anti-nutrients,

we can't just demonize plants because we know that they carry a high value to our health.

So things like lectins, phytates, goitrogens, oxalates. We're going to talk about all of these

today. And if you're thinking, oh my gosh, I don't even know what these words mean,

I'm going to make it really simple for you because my goal is not to confuse you with all of these
