Microblog: Broths with Onions, Carrots, and Celery

Most broths use a combination of onions, carrots and celery. It’s so common that there’s a French term for it-mirepoix.

🚧But these benign looking foods can actually do harm with their antinutrients.

🎙In many of my podcast interviews, I was asked about the safest plant-based foods. There really isn’t any specific plant that is safe for everyone. I searched long and hard while writing @CarnivoreCure.

🗒I did end up choosing a top ten plant-based food list to start with, but don’t get excited because the list looks pretty boring to me (sorry).

❌All plants contain antinutrients. So, when you see lists for the safest plant-based foods, be wary. All plants have toxins. It’s the way they protect themselves.

📚I still wanted to know what plant had what toxins. This is how the @CarnivoreCure food database was created. You will get access to database of several hundred foods and see if it is:

🔸OKAYed on well-known elimination diets (AIP, FODMAP, GAPS, WHOLE30, WAHLS, SCD). Yes, I did a lot of research trying to figure out the safest top 10.
🔸Affects sensitivities like gluten, casein and histamines,
🔸And also lists many of the antinutrient categories.
