Hi Loveall the following link may help you with your query.

Sorry you'll have to copy and past the link in the address box. For some resaon I couldn't post the link properly. Dont know why never mind.

It has a few good interesting poins on there.

I just want to ask, you said you eat 90% fruit and veg, is that not a hard regime to stick to?
Thanks for the link I am going to take a look in a moment. It is not a hard regime because I don't eat red meat anyway and as I increase in age my body has difficulty in dealing with the deliciouscaribbeancuisine, the occasional (junk food) dinner out dairy and flour food.

I tend to conduct this type ofdiet during the spring summer months and I do look and feel great. When winter arrives I tend to go for comfort food.

I am going to try to do this for life because, I know too many people that are looking ill or are actually ill .

Nothing special just buy fruits and vegetables as I some across them and do whatever.

For breakfast say for instance Imay blend a raw beetrot, carrot and some ginger with water and drink that. My belly is full. Or I mighthave a big mango

If I am having cooked food I mightcook some green bananaand have that with some ackee and okra with fresh pepper.

I try to treat myself and child at the weekend, which makes it easier to stick to the diet during the week. But we are gradually beginning to draw away from the weekend treats.
Gosh! that takes some strong will power but I can definitely understand that the benefits must outweigh the forgone foods by far. Two years ago my mother adopted a strict Ital diet she lost about 7 stones in the process and her arthritis, which was at times crippling, seems to have disappeared.

The only con I can see with adopting a diet this strict is that the body still needs it's proteins which apart from meat and dairy can only be provided by pulses such as lentils and chickpeas or Soya.

As long as it's working for you continue the good work
