Avoid lactins

Dr. Gundry generally advises avoiding traditional wheat noodles due to their lectin content (from grains) but offers solutions like konjac noodles and lectin-free pasta alternatives, emphasizing checking ingredient lists for hidden lectins like pea protein or soy and introducing fiber slowly. He promotes a diet low in lectins for gut health, so while regular noodles are out, specialized, lectin-free versions can fit his plan, as long as they're pure konjac or made with approved ingredients, per drgundry.com. [1, 2, 3, 4]  
What to Avoid (Traditional Noodles): 

• Gluten-Containing Grains: Most conventional noodles are made from wheat, a grain high in lectins, which Dr. Gundry links to digestive issues and inflammation, according to drgersch.de. [3, 5, 6, 7]  

What to Embrace (Gundry-Approved Alternatives): 

• Konjac Noodles (Shirataki): These are excellent options, but only if the sole ingredient is konjac, as he explains on his YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bD9OarpgJVw). 
• Ingredient Scrutiny: Be wary of added pea protein, soy, or oats in konjac noodles, as these contain lectins, says drgundry.com
• Lectin-Free Pastas: He recommends specific grain/pasta alternatives, encouraging exploration of lectin-free options available in stores, notes drgundry.com. [1, 2, 8, 9]  

Key Takeaway: Focus on purity and lectin-free ingredients; traditional noodles are a no-go, but plant-based alternatives like pure konjac can be enjoyed after slowly introducing them to your gut, according to drgundry.com. [1, 2, 3]
