We are fortunate to have access to good sources of both veggies and meat, fish and chicken but it needs to be sourced out. I found that free range chicken was harder to find near TV. Would appreciate any info on that.

I found this link to a more current article that I thought put things in balance, which is really what I am discussing. I believe that everything is all about balance and that it is up to the individual to find that balance for himself.

I read your link and the last sentence said the review was published with funding from the food industry. So it's not unbiased. We already know that the food industry is not adverse to employing doctors who will say whatever they want them to say. I feel it's a waste of our time to have to read faulty (biased) studies. It represents more dumbing down, in my opinion.
