Guest guest Posted June 2, 2006 Report Share Posted June 2, 2006 i personally eat l-o-t-s of butter and other saturated and high cholesterol foods, more so at certain times than others (such as winter), and i am 37 yrs old, 5'11" and 145 lbs, BP 115/70, and the same weight as i was when i was 20; i can easily bike or hike for hours without tiredness and can do 40 push-ups in a row (working on 50...) butter is a life giving food - jivaniya - the researchers that suggest butter is bad are the same as those that suggest you take statins medical opinion like this is for the most part is qualified twiddletwaddle based on a stream of constantly changing data - when you corner them on their own bad science they either capitulate or start to get angry... look - if the medical system wasn't the number 2 or 3 killer of north americans they might have a modicum of credibility but they don't - the big drug companies want to keep y'all sick, and the doctors cannot speak out on anything except the party line because they would get their butts sued to timbuktu and back if any patient to whom they recommended something "alternative" happened to go south so eat your butter, just leave out the bread... best... todd On 1-Jun-06, at 8:20 PM, ayurveda wrote: > Message: 17 > Thu Jun 1, 2006 7:46 pm (PDT) > "Candace" cox-ct (AT) sbcglobal (DOT) net > Re: Butter vs. Ghee > > > The lowering your cholesterol classes offered by doctors at Kaiser > Permenente medical > group now recommend eating butter over ANY kind of margarine.
