Welcome Keith!
I read your post and thought I had responded to it, but evidently I forgot to hit send.
I definitely agree that what we put into our bodies has a strong influence on just about every health issue. My doctor is huge on avoiding processed foods, yet since I can't go from garden to kitchen, nor do I have the time or resources to do everything from scratch, I find it quite difficult to avoid them. I really admire people who can figure out what they need to supplement and how to do that. I get overwhelmed when thinking of it all to be honest. Life was much simpler years ago when you had the recommended requirements (x amount of protein, veggies, dairy, bread, fruits per day) Now it's all about low carbs (or not depending on who to believe) dairy is bad, etc and just the entire process of how we think has changed. And trying to figure out what we are missing in our diets with current lifestyle choices is difficult (or it is for me)
You definitely found what works for you and thanks for sharing!
