1. I'm now eating no fish at all due to mercury contamination etc. Should I

use some kind of fish oil instead? Or is there another way to get safe fish

that I can afford?

2. Vegetables: most charts say unlimited bene's. I'd like to know what's a

minimum level per day. Right now I eat about 4 cups per day, mostly

collards.

1. I think the mercury scare is overblown especially for deep water fish or

fish caught out of a lake with no industrial effluent. There are much tighter

mercury restrictions now than in the 70s when this all came out. Don't know

of any recent poisoning cases. I'd be more worried about tape worms so I burn

my fish.

2. On eating food, I just eat my fill and then stop. I don't pay attention

to portions. As you detox from the diet, you'll be able to sense what you

need.
