Re: the *one size fits all* diet theory
Joe...
Watch Daniel Vitalis on Youtube...
And any of the longevity conference vids with him you can find free.
Most interesting will be his videos with Arthur Haines... who *knows* how the Native Americans traditionally *processed* foods and herbs to maximize nutrient availability and efficacy, AND eliminate the anti-nutrients in them.
They *cooked*, certain foods, and used things like alkaline ashes, etc. in order to do this.
In the end... *you* have to decide what resonates with you or not.
Try not to get confused... though some of the
Science is intriguing and convincing, *forget it*.
Listen to your body... pay attention to how it responds, either good or bad... and do what feels right.
Keep a food journal... if you feel *bad* or are run down, an hour or more after a meal... look at what you ate... and eliminate what you believe to be the culprit.
Try the same meal again at some point minus the *suspected food*, and see what happens.
If it is okay... you got it... if not... you made the wrong assumption.
Same process man has used for eons.
For instance, if I eat even a little starchy vegetables, my whole being can be out of sync for days... a plate of spaghetti, even if it is organic, whole grain, spelt, or whatever pasta, will just about kill me... it feels like it.
You will find your *own* way.
