SAFE TO EAT ANIMAL FAT

Some newspapers have just announced that the advice not to eat animal fat which we were given 30 years ago is faulty.

My wife and I have known this for at least three years and have benefited from being on the Paleo (or stoneage) diet.

I can remember many years ago politicians slating working class people 'up north' for eating bread and dripping. Now we know that it is the bread that creates health problems for us, not the dripping.

So the so-called health 'experts' have got it wrong again - how embarrassing for them - and how unhealthy for many of us.

Eat what you like.
The "dietary advice" will change again next year.

I have always eaten and cooked with butter and olive oil.
The experts were probably paid by Flora .

Nuts and berries are OK and so is meat, fish, vegetables, fruit, eggs and olive oil - but not much else.

Food which causes inflammation in arteries cause cholesterol to stick to the inflamed bits not excess cholesterol. Mediterranean diet with plenty of olive oil and colourful veg is the way forward.

Please read Dr. Malcolm Kendrik's book 'The Great Cholesterol Con'. Or Google 'Healthinsightuk.org' - for example - or John Briffa's www.drbriffa.com.

Re: SAFE TO EAT ANIMAL FAT

Health advice is stupid and entirely unnecessary.

Healthy eating is really, really simple and always has been. Eat real food. That's it. The more processed it is, the less like food it becomes. Of course butter is better for you (or less harmful) than margarine. Of course processed grains are not as good for you as vegetables. It drives me crazy when my wife has her "healthy" low-calorie-tagged processed foods because the real-food meal I'm having has too many calories or whatever. I've no idea how, as a species, we have managed to convince ourselves that a tin of some crappy soup and a low-fat sandwich from a supermarket is better for us than an omelette.

Eat real food and do normal exercises regularly. That's it.

Re: SAFE TO EAT ANIMAL FAT

We've been eating plastic man made shit like margarine for decades as it was 'proven' more healthy.
Now butter is not bad for you and margarine would survive a nuclear war along with cockroaches. Cheers tossers! http://www.ccmb.co.uk/images/smiley_icons/hehe.gif

Re: SAFE TO EAT ANIMAL FAT

There will always be claims and counter claims. Unless you're well read and are able to spot the dodgy science of one side or another the best thing to remember is moderation and balance as part of a healthy lifestyle. And that they never criticise fruit and veg.

No matter what you eat

No matter what you eat - if you are a FAT F UCKER - you probably have high blood pressure, visceral fat around your major organs, you are un fit , your VO2 max is probably rubbish, your cholesterol differential is usually very poor (unless you have genetic lipid issues) and you are probably at risk from type 2 diabetes

Eat less , drink less and do some exercise - is all you need to do - and if you smoke you are a fecking mug
