Well,
all seeds contain lectins and other poisons. I know Cordain says they're OK.
But I certainly disagree.
There are at least 4 paths to paleo-
archeological/historical
hunter-gatherer diets
naked and sharp and a rock stick rule
avoid antinutrients (toxins).
All arrive at much the same diet.
Rule 4 says avoid toxins- esp seeds. Wheat rice etc are full of toxins. The
edible nuts have lectins etc but there is no evidence they interact with our
physiology. I like macadamias and walnuts and am comfortable with them-
they're high in omega 3 too, but many other nuts aren't. Their protection
comes from their hard shell so they less toxin to keep safe from worms and
animals.

If seeds are not Paleo as Ben states what do we do with sunflower seeds,
pumpkin seeds etc... I do admit I don't feel well after eating sunflower
seeds.
I am new to this site and hope I am posting properly.
