I feel that most patients that have met don't seem to be concerned about the effect that protein can have on their medcation. I, in particlar , am very affected by protein so I hold all protein until lunch. I am particularly bothered by beef. If I eat beef at dinner I am usually bothered by slow action of my medication for a couple of days. I know that I am probably in the minority but I thought it worth mentioning. carol gray ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn
