I don't know. He's just the guy who says "avoid saturated fat" and I
do that. A bit like when he mechanic tells me I need new brake pads. I
believe that too.

Yup! Sure is! My cholestrol can be as high as 140 but the HDL portion
is way high so they do not recommend cholestrol meds. My LDL is very
low.

Yup! I wouldnt mind a tasty vegan/soy cheese here either. I need the
calcium though of the other.

On the coconut oil, a good and inexpensive choice is on Amazon.com.
Viva Labs, 32oz and it's fairly solid in a cold room and semi liquid in
a warm one. No need for refridgeration. Use 2 TB to 1/2 cup popcorn
in a stove top popcorn maker (I have a special thin metal one with a
stirring gizmo that works dandy for this). I have the coconut oil on
auto order every 6 months which is just right for our uses (includes an
elederly dog who stops peeing on the carpet when she gets her coconut
oil fix).

Yes, the no kill factor. That leans a bit towards animal welfare,
although they probably do it purely for themselves and their next
lives.

I think the trans palmitoleic acid in whole milk, butter and cheese helps prevent diabetes.

What a quack. Without a full lipid profile he can't properly assess
your cardio risk factor.

Sure it's a combination of things, and most of those people eat
anything but traditional diets these days... with the usual results.

I eat a lot of saturated fats because I like them

Dairy, eggs, marbled meat, cooking in animal fats, etc. Despite that
my 'cholesterol' is very good. Not much is cooked in my kitchen that
isn't a basic ingredient such as veggies, meat or whatever. Not much
is pre-prepared or packaged, and I do think that makes a significant
difference. Getting plenty of exercise is a big factor too, of course.

IMO diets heavy in grains and soy are a much bigger concern.

You're School 2. Who knows if in the end it turns out that school 2 is
right. But I don't think my health will suffer much from avoiding
coconut oil and I already don't eat meat anyway.

Yep. I'm glad she found something she really likes. (Hopefully she

Registered with who/whom?
The American Kennel Society perhaps?

Expensive doesn't necessarily equate with better or best when it comes to food...especially so with organic or so-called non-dairy products.

Hey, she likes this tofu faux cheese item. It sounds like she's not
going to try to buy a case of it. I do agree, expensive doesn't
necessarily have anything to do with "better".
