Mark put it wonderfully. It's really not that complicated. Eliminate all processed foods from your diet (get a VitaMix blender so you can process your own). Eat real food. From there it is an n=1 experiment. How are you feeling? Try no fat for a month. Try 80% of calories from healthy fat for a month. Which one works better for you? If you eliminate grains and sugars, what are you replacing those calories with?
