I would just give it a good try. It works for some and it doesn't for others. It's been working for me. I still have bad days but not every day like it used to be. Besides what have you got to lose trying it? I would give it a good month at least if not more and see. And the food doesn't have to be bland. One of my favorites is chicken alfredo pasta. My alfredo sauce is made with soy ingredients and it tastes really good. Just be a little creative. I also make a meat sauce with yves veggie ground round (a ground beef replacement). It's so tasty that even my picky husband eats it and loves it!
