Oak, I'm willing to bet the carrot thing is psychosomatic. Enzymes (or any protein) aren't going to last long in your digestive system. If your stomach acid doesn't get them, the peptidases will. I know that I get the "woo! I ate veggies! I feel great and healthy!", though not with carrots. I don't care for them. (Yay oral allergy syndrome.)
I will say that I do better on a higher-protein diet, but I'm not going to stop eating grains, or the occasional cookie, doughnut, slice of cake or anything else.
On a related note:
Dear friends--
Stop trying to get me in on your calorie-counting, meat-cutting diet thing. I like meat. I am not going to stop eating it. Food should be enjoyed, and counting calories is not going to let me enjoy it. I have enough problems. I don't need to add my meals to it.
