When you realise Peat is a complete bull shitartist you'll waken up mate.I'm glad Peat's ideas are getting out there too. I see resistance to consideration of them on some forums and comments in blogs, but at least it's "knocking on their door" for if/when they are ready to investigate further.
What I've learned from Peat goes against so much of what we've been taught pretty much our whole lives.
For example, pre-Peat, I had drilled into me that the following were "bad" -
sugar
saturated fat
salt
most dairy, especially milk (depending who I was reading)
orange juice (any juice was supposed to be bad for blood sugars)
potatoes (supposedly a "junk" veg that was too carby)
Had always heard the following were "good" -
whole grains
nuts & seeds
vegetable oils
soy products
All that is now flipped upside down.
The improved appearance aspect of getting hormones aligned and gut health in check is very appealing to me. For better or worse, I just know when I look good I feel good and the other way around too.
