More than a few people wonder if soy lecithin is gluten-free. The short answer is 'yes.' Soy lecithin is generally considered to be gluten-free.

In my search for medical answers, the study of lectins did explain so much. (e.g. The “Lectin Report”) Once we see that these harmful glycoproteins, especially those from gluten, dairy, soy and corn, can cause tissue damage/inflammation all by themselves, without an immune response, things really start making sense. The immune response is secondary to that damage, which helps to explain ...

2- I've been somewhat gluten free since ~Jan 2023 (technically organic, gluten free, soy free, light on dairy). I eat a lot of meat, vegetables, rice -- a common breakfast for me is three eggs and a sausage link, and I can't remember the last time I had a sandwich or bread.
