    There are a lot of bodies that can’t accept the natural option. The easiest one that comes to mind is milk. Diabetes is another condition that blows a hole in this way of thinking, unless you want an extreme low carb diet. No one wants that. So you look for alternatives.

      I didn’t say it was a rule or commandment. The point is that natural food ingredients > processed, mystery ingredients for health (as a general rule, not always).

      Also, an extreme low carb diet is not necessary to avoid diabetes, for most people.

        Except that completely leaves me out. I’m not talking about commandments either. I’m talking about being born with diabetes. What may be good for most doesn’t hold water for all. How do you think statements that essentially say eating natural is the only way to go make people who can’t eat the natural thing feel? Good for most people, but I hate statements like this. Been hearing them my whole life. Must be nice.
