Recently I got a call from a man with a particularly mild cancer type, easily treatable. I explained to him that I don't work in absolutes. I see my job as helping people to avoid unnecessary restrictions. For my work, I want to look at what's on the menu now, then go on to suggest changing only when and if it is necessary-an individualized dietary plan. My caller re-explained that he wanted to pay me to tell him what he shouldn't eat.
Nothing is black and white.
If food aversions do appear, we need to get other foods to take their place. And naturally, if foods truly do need to be removed due to healthcare concerns, then that change should be as mild and trouble-free as possible. As one could guess by now, I'm against flat-out rules. And Nutrition Power is anti-rule. But there is one Nutrition Power two-rule here.
