[QUOTE="andromache, post: 2635232, member: 495186"] Your nurse is probably accustomed to advising people who aren’t terribly switched on about how best to help themselves. He knows that it is far, far easier to eat low carb in a nutritionally-balanced way if you eat animal products, and he’s absolutely right about that. Most of the people he talks to struggle even to understand that bread and grains are digested down to sugars: that’s how big a mountain he has to climb explaining how this stuff works. Maybe he can be forgiven for saying it’s impossible/unhealthy when he maybe actually just meant it’s difficult and was worried that you might struggle to the detriment of your health. You know how committed you are and how much intelligence and energy you are prepared to commit to the task, but he does not. He knows how hard it is for anyone, whatever their food preferences, to get their heads around a change of lifestyle, so he wants to keep it simple. That’s my guess. [/QUOTE]
