The change from meat to (ovo lacto) vegetarian didn't bring health benefits. When the ovo - lacto was left out (meaning a lot of processed foods like cookies, cakes etc. were left out too) health did increase but the yearly flues and colds remained. Quitting smoking didn't change that. Only when a change was made to non-processed foods (no cooking, baking etc.), health increased a great deal; flues and colds were a thing of the past. This still doesn't mean one can binge on avocados or nuts; main meals have to be "watery" fruits or veggies. The body becomes so pure that any transgression from the diet will be noticed immediately by things like crusts in the eyes when waking up in the morning. If one can't take the plunge at once, a start could be using fruits for breakfast and leaving the other meals unchanged, with the exception of coffee that shouldn't be taken (if any at all) before noon. Next could be replacing lunch by fruits and last could be to change dinner into either fruits or a salad of raw veggies and a little avocado /nuts or seaweed. As the stomach processes fruits within an hour, it is rather easy to have the recommended 5 daily servings, without violating the rule not to eat before the stomach is empty. For those who want a little "conventional" experiment, eat cheese to your hearts content and quench the thirst with cool, fresh grapefruit juice (warning, this food combination may cause vomiting).
