In Ray Peat's thinking, seeds should be avoided. This is because they have toxic-irritant chemicals, they are highly immunogenic, and they are high in pufa.
On the other hand, Ray Peat thinks very highly of coffee and cocoa (chocolate), both of which are seeds.
Aren't these seeds (beans) dangerous? Many people with gut problems have difficult time with ingesting seeds because they increase inflammation in the gut; these people also have problems with ingesting caffeine, for the same reasons (gut inflammation).
