I save all my bacon fat and use that or butter when I sauté. Nothing in nature uses vegetable oils - it’s like an artificial food. Animal fat, including milk fat, is something our bodies know how to digest.

Sounds great!

Don’t forget bulletproof coffee in the morning.

Eliminate federal government funding of studies where the recipients have to issue “progress reports” to scare the populace so they can get their grants renewed, and we might just get some semblance of sanity back into “science.”

Dr. William Campbell Douglass tried to tell people that for
years. He said eat that meat, eat that saturated fat; they
are good for you! - He died last year, IN HIS 90th YEAR OF
LIFE; so maybe he wasn’t the “quack” all the veggie pushing
“experts” out there accused him of being. - We took his
newsletter for a long time & I always found him to be
pretty common sense. Thought he was about 65. He was in his
90th year - so maybe he was on to something.

Don’t heat the olive oil. Heating it makes it poison. Use
it in salad dressing w/balsamic vinegar. - Peanut oil is
good for frying with; we don’t fry much. Dr. Williams
said not to heat olive oil. - Don’t use a huge amount of
oil in the skillet to fry with.

From the article:

other research suggests vegetarianism lowers the risk of diabetes, stroke and obesity.

My favorite one is they told us all those years that saturated fat was bad for you, and it turns out there’s not one shred of evidence that it’s true. All those heart-healthy cooking oils in the grocery store aisle are snake oil.

Yep - I refused to go "the healthy way" and at 63, my bad cholesterol is 110 and I'm on zero prescription meds. I know a lot of folks who 'try to eat only the healthy stuff" and they are a mess with 2-8 prescriptions going into their bodies every day.

Oh, I cook with it, use it to flavor vegetables, and do everything else with it.

What you have to be careful of is not the cooking with olive oil, but the temperature of cooking. If you cook meat at high temperatures, you cause the formation of heterocyclic amines in the meat, which are carcinogens. You should never cook at such a high temperature that you hear sizzling. Meat should be cooked slowly and gently.
