Problem with Fung’s Protocols?

There is very little ‘food’ that I would buy in a mainline grocery store.  I made the claim that there is even less in ‘dollar stores’ … but is that true? I visit dollar stores occasionally but never pay attention to their ‘food’ sections.  I decided to investigate.  The idea […]
