"I started thinking about what I had read about Ray Peat and his diet, and wanted to clarify my take on him. I read that he believes in eating a lot of gelatin and eats gummy bears; something I would not touch because I am vegetarian and intolerant, so they are way off limits and hardly healthful. And he doesn’t believe in eating most vegetables because of the way they protect themselves in nature, producing chemicals that are toxic to what would eat them. So he’s not anyone I would really take advice from. But even those folks we wouldn’t necessarily let advise us have a good idea here and there, and one carrot a day is so innocuous I figure what if he actually does know something here, so that’s why I’ve brought this information to light on my blog. But trust me, I’m not going to use him as a viable source of information from now on!"
http://tinyurl.com/of4h7ew It's a site about a woman having histamine issues. She is a hard-core vegetarian and anti sugar. I do not think I know more than her, nor do I think she knows more than me.
I've noticed throughout the years that vegetarians can be so close minded and defensive. Why do people, especially women, eat food that they do not naturally enjoy and avoid food that they genuinely enjoy because some authority told them this is healthy and that is unhealthy? Why aren't we eating like children and quit being sophisticated and mature about food? I have a feeling if the world has no nutrition "experts", people would be more healthy.
