Wow you are amazingly proliferant Grouchy! I was also wondering about vegetarian diets for the aged and if there were any studies. A whole concept from diet to environment and as you touched on so very well and brought to my awareness one of interrelations.
Can anyone tell my anything or link me to information about alternative geriactrics? Is there such a thing? The baby boomer post hippies are going to want some kind of alternative to the traditional nursing home setting.
