What does this mean?
Well no bread,nor potato,even no sweet potato, nor corn.
Only two standard drink of alcohol a week!!

I guess the good thing is that I am doing it for my own good health and to be around longer for the people that love me and also I am doing it to improve the knowledge about human nutrition.
