Yes, that was my point.

Robert: I never said anything different.

Hmmm. There were clear preferences documented.

>There were only foods presented that were nutritious.

Yet dairy and grain were included, which instinctos consider _very_
unhealthy, not nutritious.

Robert: Why are we comparing what Davis did to intincto anyway?
BTW, not all instincto's avoid dairy. There are vegan instincto's and
raw
everything instincto's. You can't make a blanket statement about
instincto's.

And it may be the same with instincto. That is, the results have as
much to
do with avoiding grains, dairy and junk food as it does with the
rawness
and/or the one-food-at-a-atime rule. Who knows?

Robert: I'm still trying to figure out that one too.
