Can you tell me some of the advice that is accepted as a general consensus on this forum that is completely out of line with Peat's work? Please list all of the things that the majority of people here agree with that Peat would say is wrong and dangerous.
Personally, I totally agree with Peats perspective on core biological principles (re metabolism, liver etc)
This means that I don't eat any significant amounts of these 'undesirable' anti-metabolic substances:
- excessive unsaturated fats (aka omega 3/6)
- phytoestrogens
- excess iron
- pesticides/herbicides
- lectins (as found in egg white, nuts, seeds, legumes, nightshade vegetables)
- Phosphorus
Some Peat forum members deem starch as risky, but I see no problem with well boiled starch. I run of rice starch!
(Note that I have a strong metabolism and digestion so do not feel I need to be extra careful - yet I am methodical and perfectionist)
Unlike most Peat forum members, I actually don't fully agree with long-term ingestion of significant quantities of OJ/sugar - in Traditional Chinese Medicine it is considered Damp forming, and can seriously hamper other areas of the body. Suffice to say, knowing what I know, I would consider myself foolish to indulge in such dietary practices! lol
