Well said, and it needed saying.

Appetite and instinct can guide us once we are re-committed to actual meals with actual food. With that, I use the wholeness measure, which, put simply, means don't drink orange juice if you can eat an orange.

This mattered less in my youth. In my seventies, it's critical. I don't know what colds, flu or indigestion feel like, but I can find out in a hurry just by spending more time in those middle aisles, if you know what I mean.

It's almost like we just need to eat less processed crap, and not worry too much about much else.
