I would stock up on some organic virgin coconut oil and grass fed butter. . .not to mention diatomaceous earth (food grade) and silver biotics!
hear, hear! i eat real fats... olive oil, coconut oil, bacon.. rib-eye, salmon, tuna, butter, Greek yogurt, avocado, nuts... i am not overweight, i do not have high cholesterol nor hypertension... i find real fats to be good for my skin... keep me looking younger... i stay away from artificial sweeteners, diet drinks, well—diet anything... no margarine or other chemically produced fats for me... give me honest-to-goodness, real fats :)
I don’t think anybody knows what’s going on ... :-) ...
I snack on pork rinds daily, and eat meat for dinner every night.
I'm having to get rid of all my size 40 and 42 pants, and 3XL shirts!
GTH, you gluten-free, vegan, CommieLib, hipster jack wagons.
Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!
This low fat diet bs with carbo loading everyday is another left wing dangerous act of bs shoved down our throats like Gorebull Warming.
I had a foot injury a year ago, and my daily walks went from a couple of miles each day to zero. I had surgery in September, and I'm about 80% recovered.
Besides not exercising, I went on the lib/gov diet with the carb loads and cut down on meat.
With these negatives I gained about 15% over my normal weight.
In 5 weeks after going on a Paleo diet with minimal carbs, I have lost 12% of my weight, and I'm not hungry. My wife keeps fresh fruit and veggies and a bowl of plain walnuts out for snacks.
We eat salmon, pacific cod, halibut, dorado/Mai-Mai, roasted chicken, barbequed chicken/steaks/pork tenderloins and a steak once a week.
My wife's multiple water troughs, garden provides greens/kale, arugula, and tomatoes. Her figs are coming.
We buy local strawberries, blue berries and the fruit in season
Just another reason to believe all the dietary advice that government gives out.....(Do I really need to add a sarcasm tag?)
I subscribe (free) to Dr. Mercola’s daily newsletter. It is rather informative. I have to pick and choose those items applicable to me. For example, I haven’t begun to urinate in the garden . . . yet. Anyway he has some excellent and quite interesting topics. There is also information on the site for pets. http://www.drmercola.com/
A good diet with fresh fruits and vegetables, whole grains, protein from meat and fish, natural anti oxidants like red wine and garlic and healthy oils like olive and canola oil is what makes sense to me. Sure a nice steak or fast food burger is OK once in a while. Limit your intake of processed foods and sugars (in my opinion high fructose corn syrup is nasty stuff and should be avoided), drink lots of water, limit your intake of salt, but a salt free diet is not necessary and get some exercise. Check with your doctor about your weight, to treat any other problems like high blood pressure and screen you for common cancers.
Heredity is a big factor in my opinion. My father ate lots of red meat, didn't exercise and smoked cigars yet lived to be 96 without any heart or cancer issues. Ditto for my mother's 99 year old sister.
I have a friend and a physician that has been saying this to me for years. He also advised me long ago to throw out my “dangerous” statins,
Sheesh! I wanted to read the entire article, but, first it wanted my location and then there was this:

The question asked if I watch TV programming.
I left the page.
A year ago I switched from high-carb to a high-fat/protein meat-n-cheese diet. (Lots of saturated fat: coconut oil, palm oil, grass-fed butter, grass-fed beef, grass-fed cheese, raw milk and cream.)
Was just trying to eat better and repair the damage done to my insides by processed foods. Lost 30 lbs. without even trying to.
It was disappointing to discover I’ve been lied to all my life by “mainstream medicine”. But now I know...fat will make you thin, and carbs will make you fat.
This article is just more Paleo propaganda, which is just discredited Atkins nonsense.
