Hi Ladies,
I'm soo sorry it has taken me so long to get something new out to
you. With starting to teach more and with Valor not taking his long
naps right now...my time has been disapearing! As I know you all
can sympathize!
But this is the first part in a few week series on the Myth of
Cholesterol and Saturated Fats. Here is a quick blurb:
The following information will most likely shock you and catch you
off guard. While I don't mean for it to be a full research into the
question cholesterol plays into our health – I mean for it to spark
conversation and discussion. I hope this will provoke us to ask
more questions, tough questions of our doctors and research
companies to ensure they are taking into account the full,
complicated work of art our bodies are – and not just trying to
control one area at the risk of damaging multiple others. In my
research of these and other issues regarding my own health, I have
found that I need to be my own best "doctor", that no one person can
have all the answers to my medical questions and that there is so
much more information out there to help you reach your optimal
health – total body health. It might take time to sift through all
the information – but in the end when your whole body is healthy it
is worth the time and cost.
The first couple parts of this, I will be sharing an excerpt from
Nourishing Traditions: The Cookbook that Challenges Politically
Correct Nutrition and the Diet Dictocrats by Sally Fallon that gives
us a background on what are fats and how they got such a bad rap.
(I will take the liberty to summarize where needed in order to save
all of us time 0 especially for me typing all this!) Following
that, I will provide some excerpts from other articles and books I
found. And by no means will this be a conclusive list of all the
information out there! I merely don't have the time I wish I had to
fully type everything up for you all!
