Your Mileage May Vary
Jun. 26th, 2007 01:34 pmThat phrase seems to be quite true in regards to this fascinating look into whether or not certain diets affect the degree of fibromyalgia pain in different people (omnivores and vegetarians):

I may use some of this in any debates I come into between vegetarians and omnivores, since no one anywhere can truly dictate and decide what is absolutely best for everyone -- no matter how many books and articles are written, public speeches are made, or seminars are conducted. Some people do incredibly well without a certain kind of food; others do not; and I simply wish that there was not so much blatant, fanatical force used by one group of people when trying to "convert" another.
A quick afterthought, related to nothing in particular:
Saying, "It's my body, and it is different from yours; thank you for your help, but I really think it is up to me to decide what seems to be best for my body and my mind" seems to be the most logical, rational argument in general.
