Yes, too bad about the fruit...and no to the meat thing - for me. I am anemic and over 50, so have that catch-22 about B-12, paritetal calss, etc. Although I should get some good grass-fed beef at least once a week, I cannot stand the thought sometimes...
Chinese Medicine/Acupuncturist ten years ago zeroed in on my insufficient spleen action treating my alcohol abused body shortly after stopping drinking that poison, and also conquered my lifelong asthma/allergies - at least to the point of no wheezing, no allergy episodes, no inhalers, no nebulizers, etc. - however, there seems to be a histamine connection with current on-going scalp itch/inflammation - maybe spleen again. As a filter it does not get as much press as kidneys and liver I have noticed.
