RE: crossroads with scd/ too much meat in diet

March 20, 2006

I do not think it is unhealthy at all, yes a diet needs to have balance but

if meat is what his body is needing right now, give him meat. Do continue

to find sneaky ways to slip veggies in and if constipation is an issue I

would try adding a bit more fat. Don't let him just eat lean meats, that is

dangerous.
