You would need a global dictator to make these things work.  Instead encourage a reduction in consumption.  People don't like to be told by the government how to eat or drink and they certainly don't like higher taxes.  You also need the medical industry to embrace nutritional consultation

The US had a cheese glut this summer which was good for consumers. The nearby supermarket was selling Tillamook at $3 a package (usually 8 oz) so I picked up a package of extra sharp which rang up for $5.  I complained about the price because it was marked $3 on the shelf.  They came back and

From the second article that Doug posted. That's sad -- having hiked daily in high Alp hillside pastures after lunch on courses in Switzerland, and seeing the beautiful herds. In Switzerland, where the herds are led to the high pastures in summer to graze, the drought has stranded

a follow-up on calcium daily requirements ... Given the below more real-world daily calcium requirement of around 500 mg of calcium cited in the Harvard Health article, this can be fairly easily met with a vegan diet. Good to keep in mind also that magnesium is also a very important

What you need is HIGHLY INDIVIDUAL. That is even the cornerstone ayurveda. One form of nutritional typing will diagnose looking at the individual's electrolyte balance. Some will need a different calcium to magnesium balance and maybe a different sodium to potassium balance. It reflects the

Depends upon the calcium. Calcium carbonate or citrate? Citrate might not do that. My background in metabolic typing, where vitamin supplements are used, the parasympathetic type supplement uses calcium citrate. Parasympathetic types are often kapha.

Like many here probably did back in the 1970s you'll learn the hard way. Diet is principally governed by genetics. That's why people from India can get away with a vegetarian diet but people from colder reasons cannot. It takes generations to adapt too. Climate change has more to do

How old are you? Younger people can experiment with these things but as you get older extreme diets can have a disastrous effect. Even younger folks will have a hard time with extreme diets done too long. I have been working with dietetic principles since the 1970s. You have to eat what is
