Your thoughts seem to wander over many approaches to eating. You might want to look up GundryMD on the web and listen to some of his podcasts or read his latest book, "Longevity Paradox". His teachings give you some excellent insight into the various "good" and "bad" foods for your gut bacteria and how they affect your body functions. He has 19 years experience and comes across very knowledgable. Good luck to you!!!
