Giving up grains entirely
My bad. The reason it is important to rinse quinoa is because of saponins, not lectins. Some people, and I am one of them, get very ill from the saponins. Like lectins, saponins are part of the natural defense mechanism of some plants. https://www.allrecipes.com/article/should-you-rinse-quinoa/ -

I didn't want anyone to think rinsing quinoa would get rid of lectins. Terribly sorry, read your post too fast. Rinsing rice isn't recommended because rinsing rice will dissolve the added vitamins (they look like grains of rice). -

Good point. But I have been made very ill by eating unwashed quinoa that was not cooked but used in a side salad.
