This is very interesting indeed!
Lets see, I was raised in a meat and potatoes home, and never cared much for bread, rice, or potatoes as a young child. I have heard stories of me being spoon fed and angrily refusing mashed potatoes, but demanding a chicken leg!
Weird huh! So I started out life on the right foot, and it wasn't until my teens that carbs took a hold of my life, but.......
.... to this day, I have perfect vision, up close and far away!
My son, my son!!! Because of my then desire not to be involved in cycle of death in slaughter houses I was a conscience objector to eating meat. So I raised him Vegitarian. .. .. whence I gained over 150 lbs over 6 years!
Needless to say, I got over that, but my son, who is 14 and eats meat, has needed glasses forever......
Interesting correlation!
By the way, another interesting correlation is because my son didn't have meat until he was 5-6 years old, he to this day will only eat meat that doesn't look like it was once alive! He will only pick at a piece of real chicken, it has to be a filet or reconstitued patty, and I don't even try to get him to eat a steak anymore, but put hamberger in front of him no problem.
Strange but true.
