Now after reading some recent evidence that many people following vegan diets were B12 deficient, it is no wonder why these binges happen. I believe everyone needs to eat more fruits and vegetables and there is no one that can argue that, but as far as eating animal products go, people need to be open minded about it. When I wrote the Living Well Plan , I was not eating any animal products. But when I feel I need to start eating it, I am going to and I won't feel guilty about it. I am not telling people to run out and start eating meat and dairy.
Most people eat too much of it and that is a problem.
But when it comes to excluding them, especially during pregnancy , you need to really research that one. I will close with a conversation I had with a lovely older women last year. She told me she had been following a strict all raw eating plan and never strayed. But her problem was that she just didn't feel well most of the time. By noon she was shaking and felt as though she would pass out.
