Wasn't referring to *my* angle, but was rather suggesting that the big bad bile target (based on your description) is the main spot that diverges from the teachings of McDougal theory. I know little about bile, but it may be a red herring this author uses to distinguish her discoveries (?) from others (in my skeptical world view.) Seems that with a proper diet, BB bile won't be a problem, BUT NEITHER will big bad fat, big bad insulin resistance, big bad what have you..., except when those are problems for reasons other than diet.
Nevertheless, I will read up on bile issues (although I'm apparently observing the described diet that supposedly fixes big bad bile anyhow.) Remember the theory of 20-30 years ago when it was claimed that almost all Americans' intestinal linings (due to poor American diet) needed to be liberated from 5, 10, or 15 pounds of accumulated hardened sludge nastiness? I recall reading (in support of this theory) that the doctor who performed autopsy on John Wayne reported finding 20 lbs of this sludge lining JW's intestines. Funny, my colonoscopy pictures looked shiny and clean, but maybe they didn't poke that thing far enough up there, heh, heh, heh.
Thanks for sharing--I think we agree about the basics. Carbohydrate based food--GOOD for you, especially anything from the ground, from plants, or trees. Any processed sugar to be avoided. Dairy anything is best avoided (except ice cream--just kidding.) Red meat (esp cows and pigs) to be avoided, and all meat should be reduced to requirements--rather than the level of our cultural norm. Eventually, such training has permanent psychological effect due to FEELING better from doing it right. I do relent with the "wrong" foods at times, but I'm trained to also like the good carbs just as much.
