Healing Lesson of the Day

Flexitarians maintain a diet that consists primarily of fruits, vegetables, nuts, beans, and lugumes. The flexitarian (flexible diet) diet is actually very similar to a vegetarian diet except that meat, fish, and poultry are eaten minimally as a protein supplement. Whereas a carnivore plans his meals around a main course of meat the flexitarian considers meat to be an occasional add-on to his meals.
