CONCLUSION: Eat and drink what you like. Speaking English is apparently what [censored] you.

1. Japanese diet high in fish, vegetables, seaweed and fruit
2. Mexican diet high in beans, corn, tomatoes, avocados, pumpkin and chillies.
3. Chinese diet high in lightly cooked vegetables, rice, soya, meat and fish. Traditionally low dairy consumption although this is changing).
4. Italian diet high in olive oil (omega 3), garlic tomatoes and red wine.
5. German diet? must be all the sauerkraut and the great variety of real breads.
6. French diet, wide variety of foods but smaller portion sizes, garlic, olive oil and possibly s*x.
The key to good health
seems to be the lack of processed foods
and the right balance of fresh ingredients.
