Greetings!

Whenever somebody has time, I would like to know why balancing eicosanoids
to harmonize the hormones is NOT a sensible long term alternative.  Is it
the consumption of large amounts of protein and small amounts of carbohydrates?


>And not concerned with quality of foods eaten -


I agree.  I tried the Atkins diet, a couple of years ago.  It was way too
much flesh for me, even then.  I became a Vegetarian this past February.  I
like fish and I feel safe with the fish caught off the shores of the
Hawaiian island, where I reside.  But I was becoming worried about the
quality of the chicken and meats.

Plus, I never seemed to digest meat well.  Vegetarianism has been much
kinder to my colon, I think.

I'd like to know the problems with Soy products.
