I get the impression
@bulkbiker does not eat many veggies. I think he has commented something about not needing them.
Please excuse me if I have that wrong ... I think my memory makes things up at times.
There are quite a few that can and do not eat vegetables. And I would be the same except for the example I have posted above. During fasts and just not bothering with salad in winter, it has never been a problem with my health or symptoms.
There are quite a few that avoid fruit as well.
So how do they get those important (we are led to believe) minerals and such?
People can have allergies and intolerance to certain sugars, like I have a lactose intolerance since a toddler. How do I get my calcium?
Fructose allergies are more common than you would believe.
If you mention not eating vegetables, and you are killing yourself quickly!!!!
Can't live on meat alone! (But you can!)
Can't do permanent Keto! (But you can!) You will get healthy, well I did!
Again, for those who don't understand why your body can be healthy avoiding foods you just don't like or an intolerance to, or an allergy. Your body adapts quite quickly relatively. What is good for you, individually is a balanced diet of protein, fats and a certain amount of carbs that your metabolism can cope with. How much depends on you! Eating too much of most foods, is bad for you, discovery of these foods is so important to anyone who has a condition that is controlled wholly or partially by diet.
Eat to your meter and avoid those sprouts, cabbage, cauliflower and carrot and turnips! (Yuk!):***:
