Star ElGato replied to David Guest's discussion Food Matters vs Trick and Treat - Barry Groves"i feel that from all the research i have been doing for about 9 years regarding diet, in its most general form and being a juvenile diabetic that there needs to be a balance between a raw and pure protein/fat diet.
true on our evolutionary scale…"
Beckie Carter replied to David Guest's discussion Food Matters vs Trick and Treat - Barry Groves"Hi Barry
You are right about Fat, people do need it, it just depends on the source of the fats.
For example if it isn't an organic source of meat I wouldn't touch it.
Have you read much Weston Price?
his work goes into a lot of depth about…"
"Hi I too read the China Study but did you know that the book is under scrunity due to some discrepencies in their findings and how they did not reveal all that they discovered, just what they wanted you to read. i suppose this is true for most…"
Jess Etcell replied to David Guest's discussion Food Matters vs Trick and Treat - Barry Groves"Hi Donalyn,
Wow what a journey - and kudos for listening to your body. I know it isn't always easy, especially when we think we "should" do something different to what our body actually needs. It's so important to not be…"
Donalyn Harris Vaughn replied to David Guest's discussion Food Matters vs Trick and Treat - Barry Groves"I was a vegan for about five years, but I started having atrial fib. Something told me my body needed protein. I ate a whole chicken and the atrial fib stopped. Went back to veg diet and the atrial fib came back in a few weeks -…"
Peter Gustafsson replied to David Guest's discussion Food Matters vs Trick and Treat - Barry Groves"Hi everyone!
Very interesting topic! And great to see people sharing their ideas and what has worked for them. So I thought I'd share too.
About 4 years ago I heard about The Warrior Diet. It took a while before I tried it, since…"
Sandra Schafer replied to David Guest's discussion Food Matters vs Trick and Treat - Barry Groves"Caitlin and Jess,
It's possible that the cracking was due to an allergy and not to a lack of animal protein, and I am wondering if either of you was eating soy at the time? Look up Dyshidrosis, which is a skin condition that can develop severe…"
Jess Etcell replied to David Guest's discussion Food Matters vs Trick and Treat - Barry Groves"Hi Marco,
Great question - I certainly did try this - and everything else, it was not a decision I made lightly.
Might I suggest it's not what you eat - but what your body can assimilate/absorb that counts.
As a personal…"
Marco from Italy replied to David Guest's discussion Food Matters vs Trick and Treat - Barry Groves"Hi jess, I didn't understand a thing: why if you had a lack of protein, you didn't eat vegetarian food rich of proteins (like those on the list posted in the post before), instead of eating meat? I mean, in the avarage 100 grams…"
Jess Etcell replied to David Guest's discussion Food Matters vs Trick and Treat - Barry Groves"Hi Caitlyn,
I've had very similar experiences with deep cracks on my heels, cracking hands, even cracking skin on my legs while a vegan. I had not been advised it was from lack of protein - but it has improved out of sight since…"
Sandra Schafer replied to David Guest's discussion Food Matters vs Trick and Treat - Barry Groves"Caitlin,
As long as you are happy with your health, that's all that really matters, however I am curious as to why you were not getting enough protein while a vegetarian when there are many good, quality sources of plant protein? Large…"
Caitlin Grace replied to David Guest's discussion Food Matters vs Trick and Treat - Barry Groves"
Great discussion! i am glad to see the Food Matters team don't espouse any particualr diet. It really does come down to what works for your body. I have been vegetarian and due to severe anemia I went back to eating meat.( Being…"
Jess Etcell replied to David Guest's discussion Food Matters vs Trick and Treat - Barry Groves"Hi Marco,
I hear you - it can be very confusing and frustrating. Ultimately - look at the results others are getting. Don't take advice from people who don't look healthy themselves. Listen to your own body. Be consistent. Be kinder…"
