Interesting article about beans.
Interesting stuff, but I'm wary of anyone trying to sell a book.
I am vegetarian, but I'm wary of fad diets, as well as feeling better when I eat pulses, high fibre & nightshade foods.

Hi Leverette, it's pretty much commonsense,, and you certainly don't have to buy the book, that's only for people who are not confident in their own use of the internet. Once we know some basics, we can check it all out for ourselves, which I have done, and agree with the diet.
We don't all have to follow it slavishly, it says, if you follow in part, you will feel better, if you follow it 100% you will feel even better, but not necessarily, as you say, you're fine with nightshades, so am I, but I am not with cruciferous veg. We might all have the same thing, but we all react differently, same as we mainly take different levels of T4 and T3, if we're lucky to get it, I buy my own in Crete.
Pulses make me ill, and bloat and put on weight, so I haven't touched them for years.
