No, in fact I'm not advocating either.  I have to a point where I have
realized that I really don't know the answer.  There are too many experts
and arguments on both sides of the fence.  And I will not be telling
someone, such as a client, that they should be a fruitarian, or if they are
a vegetarian, to start eating meat.  It will have to involve a detailed
consideration.

Well Liza, most nutritionists SHOULD know (perhpas not all about) about uses
of plants, as plants are part of their diet and part of their clients' diets.

There are only two books I have ever come across that discuss this, one is
Sacred Plant Medicine and the other Plant Spirit Medicine.  Fascinating!
