The journey towards finding what is right for your body is indeed quite personal and there isn't really any one size fits all solution. I believe in intuitive eating and trusting your body to tell you what's good for it. Personally, I've been blessed with a good metabolism and haven't changed height or weight since I was about 15 years old. I also agree that your landscape really does influence you. There is a certain type of nightshade berry that every report online will tell you is poisonous, but the locals have found a way to consume it, sun drying it and curing it in yoghurt for weeks before it's consumed. I've grown up eating rice as a staple as that's what was commonly used in the diets of people from my hometown. Even now, if I don't eat rice for long periods of time, I feel a certain something lacking. Also, that cover image looks absolutely delicious and I would love to devour everything in it!

That layout does look amazing, doesn't it! I'm sure @barge was teasing us all with those photos. I wish I could have attended that buffet.
Rice seems to be one of the few grains that doesn't cause issues for most people. I gather it was cultivated long before wheat. It's a shame were didn't stick with it, but I guess it's hard to grow in most of the world.
Oops, rather late to get in on this 😃 ......here's a vid from the 'open day' that featured the feast and those who attended:
Was this the place in Portugal where you stayed and helped out?
Exacto! It was the first place I stayed at and I'd only just arrived in Portugal a week before the vid was shot. Amazing land - fertile, South-facing...I stayed for 5 weeks then moved on. I loved being on that land and for a while experienced a lot of happiness and joy.
