Absolutely true. People have been brainwashed into thinking cholesterol is bad. Cholesterol in and of itself is meaniningless in determining one's risk for heart disease. In the absence of high inflammatory markers (blood glucose, C-reactive protein, etc.), high cholesterol is usually a good thing. You have HDL, (or "good" cholesterol"), which is protective and anti-inflammatory, then you have LDL, which is often called "bad" cholesterol, even though there are two different types of LDL particles which blood testing does not differentiate between. The fact is, the lower your cholesterol is, the more likely you are to develop Alzheimer's, cancer, and a host of other diseases. Your body needs cholesterol to function, and it's far better to have "too much" of it than too little. Cholesterol drugs are far more deadly than cholesterol itself. I will continue eating butter and coconut oil while not worrying about my cholesterol numbers since they do not mean anything, and are simply a convenient excuse to get half the population taking a prescription drug for life, slowly killing them in the process. I am so sick of the lies.
This isnt the oral.sex forum Barumpt tish, thankyou, Im here all week, try the veal.....then supplement it with krill oil
Me too. I could go for a huge piece of wild caught coho or sockeye salmon just about any night of the week. Add some butter and some lemon garlic and you're in heaven. Another outstanding source of omega-3s are sardines, which I also eat several times a week. I get the ones that are packed in extra virgin olive oil, so not only are they a good source of omega-3s, but they have an excellent fat to protein ratio, making them a perfect food for keto.
I've never had sardines but ive pondered buying them quite a few times. Have yo uever had avocado with your salmon? I usually eat half of one with a piece of salmon and they go pretty well together.
All the time. I often will eat a salad with my salmon, so I will usually cut up a whole avocado and add it to the salad along with a liberal amount of extra virgin olive oil. It's really good.
So maybe this isn't the thread for it but I'm wondering, what is the benefit of olive oil with the extra virgin label? It has been pointed out to me before but I'm still not sure, some even tried to tell me extra virgin is better to cook with (although you shouldn't cook olive oil anyway as far as I know).
No you should not cook with olive oil as it is not stable when heated. But EVOO refers to a fine grade of olive oil made from the first pressing of olives.
