(25,953 posts)Unless you are deathly allergic to it, but that's not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about how "healthy" or "not healthy" a food is perceived to be.
Something else to keep in mind. We collectively evolved all over this amazing planet. Depending on where most of your ancestors might be from, you can digest some foods far more readily than others. Example: milk as an adult. There are several specific human groups who happily digest milk as an adult because they are from a group who domesticated milk-producing animals and made use of that. If your ancestors didn't do that, well then you probably don't digest milk very well after weaning from mother's milk.
What works for someone from some part of the world might not be a very good idea for someone from another part of this wonderful planet. Do go with what works for you and do NOT, I repeat do NOT assume that will work equally well for everyone else.
