Fats Are Good For You

by Bill Kruse on January 21, 2010

I fry in coconut oil exclusively now as it can stand the heat and is
good for you. Olive oil burns and you lose the goodness. Walnut oil
I’m interested in as I hear that’s why folk live to an old age in the
Mediterranean, it’s the walnuts, the omega6 and 3s, not the olive
oils they eat. Flax oil is superior again, I read, having a better
ratio of 6 and 3. I read Udo Erasmus, got the Fats that Heal book. Plus a lot
of web stuff.
Palm oil? I don’t have an opinion myself yet.
Cod liver oil I drink right from the bottle, I swig it every few days. If my hair’s dry at the ends, I need more. I don’t know if I should be replacing that regime with swigging flax oil. I should try that I suppose. I maintain that everyone in the West needs to be
doing something similar as we are encouraged to eat what’s profitable
for big business, not what’s right for us. The consequence is we limp
along like cars with the wrong grade petrol, mistaking that sorry
condition for good health. We all need fats, good fats, and generally we don’t get them.
