But by the end of two weeks, you\u2019ll start to see results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After six weeks, you\u2019ll have cemented your new eating habits. It will take a minimum of six weeks to also make significant progress on repairing your gut; after this point, you can reintroduce certain lectin-containing foods.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can stay in Phase 2 of the PPP for as long as you want\u2014even indefinitely\u2014but many people are able to graduate to Phase 3 after about six weeks. You\u2019re ready for Phase 3 if:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>You reach a healthy\/natural weight<\/li><li>Your physical pains improve or disappear<\/li><li>Your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/brain-fog-after-covid\/\">brain fog<\/a> disappears<\/li><li>Your autoimmune or gut issues alleviate<\/li><li>Your skin is clear<\/li><li>Your energy level is high<\/li><li>Your sleep is restful<\/li><li>Your bowel movements are regular&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Non-Food Enhancers<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Start each meal with a fish oil capsule, or use flavored cod liver oil to toss your salads or vegetables. If taking a fish oil supplement, choose one with a large amount of DHA; aim to take 100 mg of DHA each day. This protects your intestinal lining and also benefits <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/dr-amen-brain-health\/\">brain health<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Help fortify your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/healthy-gut-bacteria\/\">good microbes<\/a> and ward off the bad ones with:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Microbe-nourishing probiotics (e.g. BC30, saccharomyces boulardii, and L. reuteri)<\/li><li>Stomach mucus enhancers (e.g. marshmallow root, slippery elm, and DGL)<\/li><li>Stomach acid enhancers (e.g. betaine and grapefruit seed extract)<\/li><li>Intestinal wall-repairing supplements (e.g. L-glutamine, fish oil, vitamin D, and grape seed extract)<\/li><li>White blood cell-activating supplements (e.g. diindolylmethane (DIM) and indole-3-carbinol)<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Foods to Enjoy in Plant Paradox Phase 2<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You need to eat a lot of the following types of foods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Vegetables: <\/strong>Eat lots of leafy greens (e.g. spinach, lettuce, mesclun, and mustard greens), cruciferous vegetables (e.g. cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli, kale, Brussels sprouts, and bok choy), and other vegetables like carrots, raw beets, and asparagus.&nbsp;<\/li><li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/foods-high-in-resistant-starch\/\">Resistant Starches<\/a><\/strong>: Go heavy on the resistant starches, which nourish your good microbes and help digestion and nutrient absorption. These include plantains, parsnips, jicama, and turnips.&nbsp;<\/li><li><strong>Fructooligosaccharides (FOS)<\/strong>: Eat plenty of FOS, which is a sugar that\u2019s indigestible for you but nourishes your good microbes. FOS helps microbes stimulate the production of mucus near your intestinal wall, which protects against lectins and LPSs breaking through. You\u2019ll get FOS from okra, artichokes, onions, garlic, mushrooms, and figs.&nbsp;<\/li><li><strong>Nuts:<\/strong> Nuts contain polyphenols, which feed your good microbes. These are in walnuts, pecans, macadamias, and pistachios.&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>These foods are a little more limited, but they&#8217;re not off limits in Plant Paradox Phase 2 if you pick wisely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Grain-Free Flour: <\/strong>When using flour, avoid those that are derived from grains because of the lectin content. Instead, use coconut, almond, chestnut, or cassava flour.<\/li><li><strong>Dairy Without Casein A-1<\/strong>: You can have dairy products that don\u2019t have casein A-1, including goat and sheep yogurt, coconut yogurt, goat cheese, buffalo mozzarella from Italy, and French or Italian cheese and butter.&nbsp;<\/li><li><strong>Fish, Shellfish, and Meat: <\/strong>Make sure wild fish and shellfish are a major part of your protein intake, including Alaskan halibut and salmon, canned tuna, shrimp, scallops, and crab. You can also have pasture-raised poultry (e.g. chicken, duck, and turkey) and grass-fed and grass-finished meat (e.g. bison, beef, and lamb).&nbsp;<\/li><li><strong>Resistant-Starch Fruits<\/strong>: You can have one avocado a day because it has good fats, and enjoy unripe papayas, unripe mangoes, and unripe bananas because these are resistant starches. Other fruits must be limited, including berries, cherries, apples, peaches, plums, and citrus (not juice).&nbsp;<\/li><li><strong>LPS-Blocking Oils: <\/strong>Use oils that actually <em>block <\/em>LPSs from breaking through your intestinal barrier, including perilla oil, walnut oil, and ghee (clarified butter).&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Maybe Next Phase Foods<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The off-limits items\u2014the Just Say \u201cNo\u201d List\u2014were foreign to the human diet until the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/what-was-the-agricultural-revolution\/\">Agricultural Revolution<\/a> about 10,000 years ago; that\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/not-enough-time-in-the-day\/\">not enough time<\/a> for humans to develop resistance to the lectins contained in these foods.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After Plant Paradox Phase 2, you can reintroduce some lectin foods. But for now, you have to avoid these.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Whole grains<\/strong>: Contrary to popular health-food knowledge, white bread, white rice, and other white starches are actually better for you than their brown, whole-grain counterparts because the bran in the whole grains contains lectins. But for this phase, both brown rice and white rice\u2014as well as oats, popcorn, rye, bulgur, and corn\u2014are off-limits.&nbsp;<\/li><li><strong>Quinoa<\/strong>: This pseudo-grain\u2014although widely considered a health food and popular gluten-free alternative\u2014contains lectins, so they\u2019re off-limits unless you pressure cook them, which removes the lectins, so that is an option.&nbsp;<\/li><li><strong>Beans<\/strong>: Beans, peas, soybeans, lentils, and other legumes have some of the highest levels\u2014and most dangerous forms\u2014of lectins. For example, the lectin in castor beans is ricin, the most potent lectin and a deadly poison. Avoid these as well as green beans, chickpeas, edamame, and tofu.&nbsp;<\/li><li><strong>Peanuts and Cashews: <\/strong>Despite their names, peanuts and cashews aren\u2019t nuts; they\u2019re legumes. As such, they contain harmful lectins.<\/li><li><strong>Seeds: <\/strong>Lectins are contained in the seeds and skins of fruits and vegetables, so avoid pumpkin, sunflower, and chia seeds.&nbsp;<\/li><li><strong>Cow\u2019s Milk<\/strong>: As a reminder from chapter 2, almost all products from cow\u2019s milk contain a lectin-like protein called casein A-1, so avoid ice cream, yogurt (even Greek yogurt), and cheese. Goat\u2019s milk and sheep\u2019s milk are approved on the PPP because they don\u2019t have this protein; however, they do contain the Neu5Gc sugar molecule that\u2019s linked to heart disease and cancer.&nbsp;<\/li><li><strong>Meats<\/strong>: Avoid all meat that\u2019s not pasture-raised, farmed seafood, and fish that\u2019s high on the food chain (e.g. swordfish, tilefish, grouper, and tuna) because they tend to have more mercury. Additionally, cut down on beef, pork and lamb (even grass-fed) because they carry Neu5Gc.<\/li><li><strong>Fruit: <\/strong>Fruits contain sugar that signal to your body that it\u2019s summertime (aka fat-storing season), so you can only have them in limited servings. In addition to familiar fruits, this includes several that are commonly called vegetables, such as nightshades (e.g. eggplants, tomatoes, peppers, and goji berries) and squash (e.g. cucumbers, pumpkins, and zucchini).&nbsp;<\/li><li><strong>Oils<\/strong>: The off-limits oils are made from lectin-containing seeds and beans; these include vegetable, corn, and peanut oil. Additionally, canola oil is off-limits because it almost universally comes from GMO seeds.&nbsp;<\/li><li><strong>Sweeteners:<\/strong> Avoid this deadly disruptor because it harms your microbiome; eliminate Splenda, NutraSweet, Sweet\u2019n Low, and diet drinks.<\/li><\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Have you completed the Plant Paradox three-day cleanse?
