With guidance -none: Any dietary practice you grow up with becomes second nature & is passed on as most family lore. If you decide to change drastically from what you grew up with you need guidance. It is not as simple is just not eating "X", it requires you learn how to avoid dietary deficiencies that could put your health at risk. Whether this be with a clinical dietitian, learning online or in courses, be cautious.
