Cod

Dr. Gundry advocates for wild-caught seafood, including cod, as a high-quality, lectin-free source of protein and essential nutrients. As part of the Gundry Food Strategy (https://gundrymd.com/food-pyramid/), wild-caught fish is highly recommended over farm-raised options to ensure low toxicity and high nutritional value.
