When it comes to the science of health, nothing is ever 100% so I wouldn't think of asking for 100% compliance. Everyone needs to take personal responsibility to be informed and do their best.
Correct, but BMI can be even a bit higher and a person can be healthy.

I'm sure you've done your research, VPL....and I'm sure you're eating foods in proper quantities to insure you have adequate and complete proteins over time. You feel well, you have energy and I'll assume your health statistics are reflective of the effort you put into making the food choices you do.

Live long, live well, VPl.....and when you get a chance, could you post a recipe for a particular dish you eat, in the food section, that might make some of us carnivores want to give it a try....
