IG27...VARIETY, MODERATION, HYDRATION, BETTER CHOICES
Now...a few foods that ARE AN ABSOLUTE TABU AND NEVER GIVE YOUR IGS!!! are like 1) rhubarb 2)fruit seeds like apricot, peach, cherry,pits and apple seeds 3) meat 4) eggs & milk

Now that typed.....VARIETY, MODERATION,HYDRATION,BETTER CHOICES!!

Chicory is great...need to add some water to yer igs diet? Is he constipated? Go for it....BUT Chicory has oodles of Vitamin A....are you supplementing your igs diet with Vitamin A too? not good then to overload him with A for too too long....MODERATION! Vitamin A is fat soluble and can be toxic. Good protein source tho
Eggplant & Green Peppers: Calcium phosphorus ratio not great something like 1:3 but go for it...bread it and fry me up some too while yer at it. MODERATION
Green beans: I hate Legumes!! DESTROY ALL LEGUMES!! Phytates, Purines, Calcium: Phosphorus ratio sucks 3 strikes yer out! ...but use em for VARIETY and in MODERATION! Don't let me tell ya what to do!!
Bok Choy and Kale....lots of vitamin A, goitrogens....BUT you can eliminate goitrogens by cooking them out! so Nuke it before giving your ig (don't know about your ig but my igs love a nice warm meal!)....and use it as a substitute for mustard greens, or collards, or any other goitrogenic food like them. VARIETY AND MODERATION! Variety and MODERATION...keep saying that....when shopping...you'll do alright!
