Becky, thanks for all the articles. It took all of them to begin to help me understand why there are so many conflicts in diet and exercise recommendations. I can see that by eating less protein and more fruit, vegs, fiber, beans, etc. and walking each day would keep me healthier. thanks for taking time to put them all up for us. ma
