Was Pepto, now metabolic diets

[Guest guest]

And almonds.

Bob's diet is a lot " stricter " than other metabolic diets, including

Wolcott's. For example, he doesn't allow grains at all for hunter

gatherers, whereas all other metabolic diets I've seen do allow some.

As far as being acid making, maybe they would be for a vegetarian

who was Agriculturist (I suspect most aren't). Wolcott says foods

can be acid making for one person and alkalinising (sp?) for the

next, depending on their type.

I have no doubt that there are different metabolic types (I see it

every day under my own roof, which makes things tricky sometimes),

buit the more I read about it, the more I think that STILL none of

them have put their finger on the right WHY. (as in the right

specific mechanism)
