    Healthy Fats and Oils.......IMO!

    Also Sally Fallon doesn't seem to have any qualifications in a nothing to do with diet or nutrition, why do so many people get swayed by someone with a differrent opinion when they have no qualifications at all? I agree heart disease is caused by lifestyle choices, a high fat, sedentry and add...

    Healthy Fats and Oils.......IMO!

    What is heavy cream, is that full fat milk? I am thinking you need to have such a massive lunch because you have no breakfast. It's really important to eat a decent breakfast. Also there is no where near enough food in this example of a diet. I also think a vegietarian diet is great is you...

    Healthy Fats and Oils.......IMO!

    I really agree with the above paragraph, especially balance in the diet, a little bit of many things and lots of vegies and fruits a healthy balance of meat and carbs is a fantastic and healthy way to eat. A good balance of exercise and of course no smoking or doing things that will harm your...

    Healthy Fats and Oils.......IMO!

    I am really interested in what you attribute to causing heart disease if not smoking and high fats/sentry lifestyle.:/ It has been proven that the above cause these illnesses, and using the inuit and hunter gathers as an example isn't really suitable as they are not living anywhere near the...

    Some rooster questions

    If a Rooster starts crowing, but then doesn't do it much anymore, what's that about? Henry is about 6-8 months old and doesn't seem to crow regularly. I think Iv heard him maybe twice? :/ Also why doesn't he try and mate with his own breed!!! Why does he pick the smallest chook in the pen to go...

    Healthy Fats and Oils.......IMO!

    Nope, I'm pretty tough, I'm cool with people having different opinions to me, and am secure in my beliefs that I don't need to get offended when others disagree with me. I put my stuff out there but know it's not my life goal to change others into thinking my way if people want to take bits of...

    Spelling and grammar

    Coconut oil questions

    Ok I think were always going to agree to disagree on this, which is fine. Eskimos work awfully hard and need to have a certain amount of body fat for the cold, and the majority of their diet is fish which is not a promblemn to eat as it's full of the omega oils. I saw a documentary on the...

    Coconut oil questions

    I have been taking information from Australian sources when talking about saturated fats as was thinking perhaps it's totally different over there and for some crazy reason your heart disease isn't caused by saturated fats as in some casees it is over here. But it is, I am stunned that people...
