I'm no expert on this stuff, but I'd say that one needs to think of food as what you have daily. Anotherwords, what foods trigger issues? I learned during the 1990's that I needed to just give up certain foods permanently....for me, it's dairy, eggs, poultry, refined sugar, sodas, wine, caffaine (except alittle dark choc. due to weak heart). Pigs ....whole wheat. Some causes may be allergy etc. Don't know. Nightshades (inflammatory), tomatoes, potatoes, peppers etc. I also did a breadday fast for about 5 years. Only plane white bread, water, coffee on Monday and Wednesday until 5pm, then normal meal. This cooled my appetite. Never ate alot of fat. And snacks rather than big meals works for me. Also yoga, massage, prayer etc. Just put together what works for you!!
