There are people in this world who do not find opiate drugs pleasurable. Endorphins are the brains pleasure chemical, and opiates resemble and act upon endorphin receptors. Yet, for some reason, some people do not get any pleasure from use or abuse of opiate drugs

Diet

[spaceoperadiva]

A lot of those good for you "must eat" veggies make me terribly ill. Broccoli, which I adore, makes me so ill I'm incapacitated after I eat it. Many people, including my mother in law, assume I just don't like these veggies and that I'm a "picky" eater. Well, yes, I am a picky eater because eating certain things makes me really truly sick. Except for the asthma/allergies thing, I'm incredibly healthy. I don't get colds and stuff, I've got a great metabolism and low cholesterol. I don't suggest my particular diet to anyone else, because it's overloaded on protien and low in what my dad called "roughage". But it works for me, and as you say, we are each our own unique complex dietary requirements. I think a lot of people need to read less diet books and listen to their bodies more.
