Although boiling under significant heat can reduce lectins in food, you can reduce the lectin activity without heat treatment. Soaking seeds and grains before allowing them to germinate, or sprout, can help reduce lectins and phytates. However, be careful when you sprout legumes.
A quart is a unit of measurement for volume. It is a quarter of a gallon or two pints. Because the imperial system and the American system use different gallons their quarts are different too. In the American system there are two different quarts. There is a wet quart and a dry quart. There is only one imperial quart.
After that, there is a difference. A U.S. pint used for liquid measures is 473 milliliters, where as a dry measure pint is 551 milliliters, which means it is 16.5% larger. A U.S. dry measure quart is 16.4% bigger than its liquid counterpart, at 1101 milliliters vs. 946.
