Not being a nutritional scientist, I rely only on what I hear/read.

I am told that the Kwashiakor present in Egyptian children is caused by a lack of total protein in their diet which is primarily grain based.

I am also told that with food combining - as in rice plus beans - as in Mexican food, total protein can be achieved.

Bawdy Wench - I too have cats - one lean and one obese. They eat the same food but the obese cat eats more than the lean cat. In fact he cleans the left overs from the lean cat.

I agree - putting the obese cat on a weight loss diet is pure insanity.
