Are Plants Poisoning You? Spinach, Almonds & The Truth About Oxalates

Actor Liam Hemsworth hospitalized from spinach smoothies. Spinach, almonds, flaxseeds… healthy, right? Not so fast. 🛑 Plants are trying to kill you - for their own survival!

What if your “superfood smoothie” is actually loaded with plant toxins like oxalates, lectins, and even cyanide? Cassava root has killed people who ate it the wrong way. Almonds and flaxseeds can trigger toxic overload when eaten in “normal” health food amounts.

We’re told “the dose makes the poison.” But here’s the truth:
👉 No one can tell you the safe dose of oxalates, lectins, or plant toxins.
👉 Hormesis works for exercise, fasting, or cold plunges — but not for cyanide.
👉 Plants don’t just contain one toxin. They contain thousands.

 I break down why plant toxins aren’t the hormetic magic we’ve been sold, and why you should think twice before tossing another handful of spinach or almonds into your diet.
