    So by fermenting this kills lectons??
    I have inflammatory issue to the moon and back. I have 4 gallons of kombutcha on the go always and this really helps.
    My refrigerator broke and we were living from a cooler..gave me a chance to eat and drink mainly fermented food.
    The inflammatory problems were relieved. Now I'm working on building up my fermented food stock.

    You have a very good handle on what is going on in the world of fermentation. I need to return more often.

    I just looked up "lectins" and they are in a host of foods, among which is "tomatoes". I'm glad I learned to ferment them instead of cooking, although cooking does eliminate a lot. Which brings the next point… 160 degrees F is needed to kill the lactobacillus. When packing the tomatoes, you need to kill the bacteria else the hot-packed sauce will continue to ferment and break the seal, leading to spoilage.
