    I love quinoa. I rarely eat it though as I find it quite high in calories (and I only like it with olive oil). But picking a random food and eating it for 30 days makes no sense to me. Why not tomatoes then? Or clementines? Must be because of the name...

    You may want to read The Plant Paradox by Steven Gundry many of these foods that we think of being super healthy- are not including Quinoa and lentils. They really bother the good bacteria in our gut. I would be worried that you could develop stomach problems with eating that much.

    Not to derail the OP's discussion, but most of the claims in this book are not referenced, and the ones that are don't offer any support for his claims and/or are misrepresented.

    As a supposed acclaimed medical professional, you would think he would know how to site references properly. :/
