Raw kidney beans really can make you sick. Nausea, vomiting, the works. That's not a scare tactic — it's documented toxicology.
The carnivore world has built a whole argument on facts like that one. Plants can't run away, the story goes, so they evolved chemical weapons — lectins, oxalates, phytates. Every bowl of beans is the plant fighting back.
Here's what makes the argument so effective: the scary facts are mostly true.
And the conclusion still doesn't follow.
The new video is about the leap hiding between "this compound can be hazardous" and "this food is actually harming you" — and the one piece of evidence the entire argument is missing.
