For example, fruit can be considered a tonic, cleanser, AND a protective.

It does seem a complicated system to me, but we have decided to take a closer look at it. The plan seems to incorporate a lot of food. My husband and I eat fiber-rich cereal for breakfast (never eggs, bacon, cream), a light lunch (left-overs or soup), and a "main meal supper."

All of the right code is in place. Anyway, I apologize for the weirdness of the formatting--it isn't for a lack of trying to make it right.
