Healthy eating is not the same for everybody. In my case, I can' t eat fruit. Of course I am bombarded by many saying you have to eat fruit because it is good for you. But it is not good for me because I do not feel well after eating fruit. You have to find your own path and not be browbeaten by those who think they know better than you what is good for you.

You are right that healthy eating is not the same for everybody. One thing I can offer is that gluten and sugar are not good for anyone - information from my doctor and her nutritionist, that I have worked with for quite some time. If you read about how wheat is grown here in the US vs. Europe, it is eye opening. I can eat wheat products in Europe, but need to be gluten free in the US. Gluten disrupts the gut lining and I was diagnosed with SIBO due to my GERD and found I was gluten intolerant. And sugar is not good for any of us - we can substitute with organic Stevia in coffee or tea and reduce the amount of sweets eaten - take a look at the ingredients and see how much sugar is added to a product - I shoot for 15% or less when I need a treat. There are plenty of brands out now that produce much healthier options for those of us looking for them.
