RE: Re:Lipase

[Guest guest]

Roger,

 

I have cut down from 3-4 avocados a day to one every two days.

Garlic has gone too. My regret there, is that I will reduce my

intake of lipase which I read somewhere is helpful for cleaning

arteries. I just wonder what other natural sources of Lipase there

are?

 

Following the trend away from fats, I have boosted the fruit

content of my diet too. It seems to work for me. Am thinking

of developing a taste for coconuts. They have oil, can be smashed

on a stone. It is sloppy of me not to read more but does the coconut

get a good review by the experts?

RE: [Raw Food] Re: Mouth sores

 

 

Just reading from Dr. Cousens book " Conscious Eating. " He recommends no

more than 10 to 20% of calories to come from raw fats. Keep in mind this

is a very low amount in terms of quantity. Fat has much more calories by

weight than fruits. So it's not twenty percent of the weight or volume

of the food but twenty percent or ten percent of your total caloric

intake. If you eat about 2,000 calories per day then 10% is only 200 fat

calories for the whole day. Just one avocado is 270 fat calories.

 

He also said that even cold processing of oils removes the lipase enzyme

which would exist in the whole food. High fat intake makes Diabetes

worse and it's bad if you have High Blood Pressure. All according to Dr.

Cousens book.

 

He does however seem to think that raw fats are much better than cooked

fats. Which I totally agree with from my own experiences. He's not so

sure if eating a lot of raw fat is really that bad. He's waiting for

more studies to come in on that. Since most of the studies deal with

people eating cooked fats.
