HI. Not sure you if you were directing your comments to me, but if you were, I did not say to only eat vegetables. I only meant that it is a good idea to build up your nutrients and immune system. By the way, I think many here advocate the very strict diet because we have been extemely ill. People who can manage on a less stringent diet should do so ( fruit, grains, dairy in moderation ). No one is starving themsleves by choice. I used to be so ill that ANY food would make me feel sick to my stomach. Diet alone isn't enough though. I agree there :-). If only it were that easy.
