I don't really care if the premise is proven true, but it makes sense to me not to stick rocket fuel into a body that can run fine on regular. <br />I am concerned about the enviromental impacts and cost. My justification, and my hope is that for people over 50, this diet makes a lot of sense, and can reduce long term medical costs by reducing susceptibility to age on set diabetes, high blood pressure, CVD, etc. My guess is that the redution in medical costs could outweigh the environmental cost. People under 50 may not benefit as much from this diet. <br /><br />My typical diet is sardines in water, (no salt) and a banana for breakfast. Fish or turkey breast and vegetables for lunch. Similar for dinner. I eat much more vegetables and fruit than I ever have. No dairy, no salt. At this point the meals are a little boring, but I have a cookbook that I hope will add some pizazz. <br />The goal is very low fat, with a higher percentage of the right kind of fats. <br /><br />Love the blog, recipes look great and the photos are just too deliciously tempting!Carisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01934360942835970380noreply@blogger.com
