@@ Hi ,

Fish once/twice week is not a problem. The Mercury is detoxified by the fish's

body as well as the healthy fats you consume in the diet. So no worries.

To give you more reassurance just consume only the fish and shellfish on Bee's

see below. Also the smaller fish, the less residual mercury.

Which is the fish and shellfish mentioned on Bee's list. Lecithin in fat also

chelates out fluoride. Just a tidbit & reminder.

And, just in case you are wondering, ... Yes, I'm aware of Dr.Mercola's , as

other naturopath's fear mongering and concerns on Mercury in fish / seafood.

I'm unimpressed, its a lot of unnecessary hype. Their information is unbalanced

and lacks the complimentary information I have just given you.

So relax, mom to be, ignore the hype

ranting about the solutions rather than the problems, we'd have

a better world. Hopefully people are catching on ;]

@@ Hi ,

Apologies, overlooked a question regarding rotation of food/meats. Its not

important. You can have them everyday, if you wish. As long as you are acquiring

your nutrients from them that is what is important. Which you would on this

diet program.

So no worries.

Bon apetit,

+++Hi ,

I agree with what Ed wrote.

Rotating foods comes from those who believe you can become allergic to something

you eat every day. However, that is totally false.

Before industrialization people only had the foods available in their area and

they ate them every day and didn't have any adverse affects. The same is true

for animals in the wild who eat the same foods all of the time.

All the best, Bee
