@drcopp My friend went on the Ornish diet after a (completely unexpected) coronary and stents, but it seemed a little old fashioned and behind the times and oversimplifies. I'll say once again, eliminating red meat is not nearly as important as balancing your omega 6-3-9, a red meat carnivore diet will unbalance your omegas. And really there are several other EFA issues. This may be a fair criticism of keto diets, too. Balance and moderation has a lot going for it.
Even in diabetic diets what is most important is moderation, you can eat small amounts of almost anything just so the totals stay below a certain level.
And anti-inflammatory foods and supplements, turmeric/curcumin and colored fruits and vegetables - and some mushrooms for the ergothioneine - also teas with hibiscus or berries, reinforce these moderate diets.

@carbcounter Yes, I agree with most of what you are saying, yet we can't dismiss the idea that if something like a bacon or lunchmeat is a class I carcinogen, then I stay away from it. Again, the ICF-1 molecular structure in all meats and fish, along with the heme proteins in pork put us at risk for stimulating cancer.
The American Dietetics Association position paper on the best diet reported the veggie or vegan, but apparently the lead committee chairman on national health didn't think that Americans could handle so radical of a change, so he sided with the Mediterranean or DASH diets. See attached study.

@carbcounter
Yes, absolutely 👍🏻 I really appreciate your input! I have been looking into white button mushrooms. They have capsules @ powder, but I believe they also have multodextrose after reading the ingredients. So buying fresh ones is the way to go and short and long term fasting would also help……..
Thank you 😊
