wow yossarian! i'm reading your posts with my jaw dropping - much of what you write makes a lot of sense but like fairyfarm girl, putting a diet like that into practise would simply just not be practical - very interesting to read your posts though - thank you
one thing i wanted to ask - mangos - they cost a bloomin' fortune over here so i only ever buy them as a treat, but i've noticed they make my son absolutely loopy! he reacts to them so similarly to chocolate that he doesn't get them. i assumed it was fructose in them but your posts seemed to imply that it wouldn't be
anyway, what was particularly interesting was i guess i've been limiting my son's fruit intake because of said loopy-ness when he has too much sugar, but since he naturally gravitates towards fruit rather than traditional meals, i'm going to follow his lead for a little while and see how much he wants in his diet
