Is coriander allowed on the Tayyibat diet?

No

No. Dr. Al-Awadi excluded this food himself.

Why coriander is off the list

Its sharp, pungent compounds are harsh on your gut lining, the very thing this system works to protect.

The detail

Reactive aromatic compounds (allicin in garlic, aldehydes in fresh coriander) work against the gut lining the system spends its effort protecting.

The rule behind the verdict

Too sharp for your gut

Did the doctor say this himself?

He ruled on this himself.
