I understand the confusion. That’s why I put these stage 1 and stage 2 grocery list together. I’ve been doing some form of B.E.D. since 2010 and all the foods listed have been approved by Donna Gates (founder of diet) in her recipes, talks, podcasts, so on. That said, be careful with juice of any kind even those listed as stage 1. Do what feels right for you. When I first started BED, I had systemic yeast infection and found I did fine with green apples, yet pomegranates I had to go very light on. We are each different in the load we can carry.
I am confused about the shopping list for stage 1 of BED. I thought only lemons/limes and cranberries are listed for stage one, but you have green apples, pomegranates, currants and some juices,,,
And under fats you list rinsed olives-another fruit.
