Following this for kicks. I hope this isn't insulting to anyone, I assure you that's not the intent.

I've given up for the most part on these types of food studies. It seems it all depends on who is doing them, what hypothesis they are trying to prove or disprove, who is paying for them, etc., etc., etc.. Had a doc tell my I was pre-hypertensive while walking into his office on a painful broken toe. My sister, an NP tells me he's correct, I say let's look at the study, paid for by the company that makes the BP meds. Go figure. Heal up and test again, 120/70.

"Moderation in all things, Mary Ellen… especially in moderation" (identify the reference? anyone)

I do what seems to work for me. I'm old enough and my body is doing what it should, meaning generally healthy, you've probably had enough blood tests to see when you start to get "out of whack" and and adjust. I've had docs find a few things over the years that I simply adjusted with diet and excercise, the numbers get better and there I was. That's pretty much the experiment I'll listen to. I eat fairly healthy (chicken/fish and veggies most of the time) but I'm all about the occaisional steak or french fry or two once in a great while.

Obviously if you have other health issues there's a lot more to the equation.

Eggs? don't get me started. They were a staple for YEARS, then suddenly they were the devil, then they went to super food status, now they are carcinogenic. I grew up eating eggs (cooked in bacon grease) almost every day. Now, 1-3 a week, maybe. I generally make omelets out of one egg and the rest egg whites. Is this why I got PCa? Maybe...who knows.

My mantra has become "Get you blood tests, listen to your body adjust, rinse and repeat."

You know what is really unhealthy? STRESS.......
