Me and dairy have a love hate relationship. My tastebuds love it but my body loathes it, so I mostly avoid. I don't like fake butters, margarines, etc., so olive oil is my alternate
I do like good olive oil and balsamic vinegar
I miss good bread, but G/F flatbreads, cornbreads and the like work fine with olive oil too
I don't eat meat, but I do eat nuts, legumes, grains and mushrooms to make up the protein.
I'm a good vegetarian, and have been for over forty years.
On the whole my diet is healthy, just I don't move enough to balance out what I do eat.
Heart, lungs, BP, blood sugar, cholesterol, kidney and liver function are all healthy, just the gut is temperamental and the joints ache.
Right now my fingers are like wee sausages. Main knuckles are fine, sort of, but my finger ones are really hot and swollen. My pinch grip is going again, and my shoulders are aching.
Ironically touch typing actually keeps my fingers mobile instead of them locking up.
I'll live, the joints will hopefully settle down again, just this weather doesn't help and I need to move more.
