Sana, look at it this way, you have been eating grains, fruits, nuts

and legumes all your life and you have been getting sicker and sicker.

So what will it hurt to try something different.

It took me 25 years to figure out that when you keep doing the same

thing over and over and keep getting the same results... that is

called lunacy.

Believe me, I understand, cause I am still trying to get up the

nerve to take sea salt with my very high blood pressure. But

everything Bee has told me to try so far has been right on the money,

I will add the electrolyte drink today.

Thanks Pyllis, I hear you.

However, I haven't quite grown up eating all those types of foods since they

were part of the tradition in my great grandma/grandma's time and changed quite

a bit in my parent's generation.  We actually grew up on a heavy emphasis on

meat which was most always home cooked along with white rice, white bread and

wheat tortillas/rotis.  Not many veggies and fruits at all and when we moved to

the US, a lot more junk snacking.

I'm wondering what the long term results are in health of people who are eating

only protein and fats.  Instead of success stories which I feel like are posted

on every alternative diet fad website out there, I would like to know real

people who have stuck with this diet for 20 some years and are thriving in terms

of their health.  And people that are living in the US preferably the same

weather conditions as mine instead of eskimos or desert bedouins.  I cant help

but think that the needs of people would differ based on what the earth and

environment deems fit for them. 

Not trying to cause raucous here!  Just feeling safe enough to question

+++Hi Sana. There is a person, called " The Bear " who has been eating

all meats and fats for over 47 years:

http://zerocarbage.com/showthread.php?tid=53

+++Also long-term health benefits have been documented on the

Eskimos, and by a year-long experiment done with V. Stefansson and

his friend at a hospital: http://www.biblelife.org/stefansson1.htm

+++Also many studies have been done on the Masai Tribe in Africa and

they are perfectly fit and healthy and have been for centuries, and

they eat an equivalent of 1 1/2 lbs. of butter per day:

+++There are tons of others, in addition to studies of skeletons as

documented by Dr. Weston A. Price and V. Stefansson in their books.
