Check out, again the "Livin' La vida LOW carb" show, with Jimmy Moore! I have heard several guests on his show lately, who all go into a litany of the evils of statin drugs! Muscle wasting, joint pain, Liver damage.... and the list goes on and on! Why would you take a drug, to mitigate a condition (High cholesterol), that is a fiction in terms of heart health?? High cholesterol does not mean that your are unhealthy in any way. The medical establishment is on a blind endorsement of the Ancil Keye's bogus study, from the middle of the last century, that posited that saturated fat was the sole cause of heart disease... He fudged the data, "losing" parts of it that didn't fit his theory, and set us all up for 50 years of bad nutritional advice!! Bottom line: Butter is good. Corn oil is BAD! Real food is good. Industrial food is BAD! Lean meats, seafood, eggs, and nuts are good. Sugar, grains (YES- EVEN "WHOLE GRAINS") are BAD! REALLY BAD!!! Leg...

Today, a hot day in August, I had a nice dessert awaiting me in my lunch cooler.. (see to the left!) It was a mix of frozen (this morning) raspberries and blueberries. Just about a 1/2 handful of each, in a little tupperware container, but- and this is crucial!-topped with a healthy dollop of real, unhomogenized whipped cream, sweetened with cinammon! Ironically, it appears that full fat dairy is much better for you than skim, which in the old days was used as pig food; in other words not nutritious enough to use on humans! The satiety factor of using just a little whipped cream (or butter, or coconut milk) is HUGE- You are satisfied, and NOT hungry, for hours afterwards. Not to mention, the food value of the berries involved is HUGE, and the insulin response is minimal in such a dessert. "But Jay", I hear you asking, politely, "Who cares about insulin?" Well, I answer politely, you should! For many years, saturated fat has been implicated by the "authorities...

Here I am yesterday evening, after grilling a Barbarian diet feast of grilled, barbecue chicken, hot Italian sausages, mushrooms, and a LOT of sauerkraut! All hot off the grill- YUM!! We ate the chicken last night, along with big salads, and I split the sausage/mushroom/sauerkraut into two tupperware containers for two lunches at work- I just heat them up in an available microwave, and eat really well! For desert, I have my usual container of frozen raspberries, topped with real whipped cream, sweetened with stevia and/or cinammon. I have been enjoying two podcasts daily at work lately: The Paleolithic Solution , and the Living La Vida LowCarb Show with Jimmy Moore. Both are highly recommended!! You will really learn so much; the diet info we have all been taught for so long is utter and complete hogwash!! Low fat, high carb, processed foods preferred... this is why our population in the modern, Western world is now fatter, sicker, more diseased, and depressed than we have ever been...
