Several of us have been discussing nutrition, especially since I send out Joel Fuhrman books that I find for 3 or 4 dollars (hardback!).
Here are some of my conclusions -
- Most of the special tablets aiming a curing or improving something are very expensive versions of a single ingredient in vegetables, fruit, and nuts.
- One multi-vitamin a day is good and inexpensive, because we may not get all those ingredients on a regular basis.
- The get-fat group includes desserts, milk, butter, cheese, eggs, and meat. They are also relatively expensive.
- The alternative is to fill up on leafy greens and beans, which are very high in nutrition, quite inexpensive, and delicious when the get-fat foods are downgraded to minor roles (but typically dominate in the Standard American Diet).
- The named diet plans - Keto, Mediterranean, Opti-fast, Scarsdale, high protein - are expensive and unbalanced, leading to drastic reduction in weight and awesome gains afterwards.
- Fish is very expensive for getting Omega 3 oil when it is found (without toxins) in nuts and flax seed. If anyone has belched fish oil...it is a warning against its dubious origins.
- Desserts are ready-made, so good at quelling hunger pangs, but quick for weight gains - in fats and sugars used - both quick to make their mark on the waist.

Seriously, there are many long-term diseases we can address with the simple foods our parents and grandparents grew up on.
