    Ah huh most of the symptoms I remember reading about were gallbladder related but that's a good point. Just seems like that would've been an easy thing to determine conclusively by now

      An interesting fact is that the gallbladder has lots of lectin binding sites that could lead to inflammation or blockage of cystic ducts (leading to a form of gallbladder disease). Similar research has been done towards lectin from wheat germ and how it can impact the gut as well.
