For a long time now I have felt that I am best able to know what is good for me and what is not. It is sometimes difficult to disagree with specialists and intellectuals who all spout their version of the bad and good, but over the years, seeing things go in and out of fashion has helped me to trust my instincts more than ever.
Whole milk is good for me, even if it will kill some of you. My cholesterol levels are"enviable", according to my doctor. Milk also helps me to sleep better at times and is always deliciously yummy. It helps me to dissolve my fat soluble vitamins so that I can absorb them.
Nuts of all kinds (unsalted) are good for me for the same reasons. Olives, avocado, even bacon, in moderation too.
Chocolate, on the other hand is very, very bad for me. It is the catalyst which will feed my addiction and give it the upper hand. With chocolate, I will never win. It will never be safe for me to have chocolate in any way, shape or form. Chocolate is indeed my worst enemy, but whole milk I'm not afraid of.
I'm also pretty sure that my body/ mind will find ways to let me know if I am not making it happy and I'm listening better than ever.
