If you mean the NT/WAPF food philosophy, then the scare-quotes are

well-deserved; it's not a diet in any meaningful sense of the word.

Just eat time-tested wholesome foods from quality sources using time-

tested methods of processing... While milk is prominent in WAPF

circles, and it's a wonderful food for those who have the appropriate

physiology, in no sense does following NT entail milk consumption in

any form... There are plenty of people on this list who can't

consume milk foods... There are million other things to eat that

offer everything anyone would ever need... With NT you're not going

to get a bunch of rules to follow; it's a broad, maximally inclusive

food worldview consistent in principle with the diet of any

traditional healthy culture.
