Another day, another episode on Dr. Gundry. Are grapes the same "toxic" food as a Hershey's candy bar (hey, he said it, not us, we're not calling Hershey's toxic). Should all lectin containing foods (aka most plant food) be avoided? Can his diet keep you from ever needing another surgery? Get ready for another heavily eye-roll inducing episode.
