MelodyMP3 Posted March 17, 2014 Posted March 17, 2014 Jordan Reuben, a Messianic Jew and author of several nutritional books, takes all the verses in the Bible that has to do with food, cleanliness, and health or disease, and adds medical and Holistic backgrounds, coming up with The Maker's Diet. I've read 3 of his books, and I really like them a lot. He even teaches free classes here... http://www.biblicalhealthinstitute.com/FreeCourses/Eating101/tabid/61/Default.aspx The point being...he has come up with three food lists...one of "extraordinary foods" that are super good for you, "Average" foods that don't really harm, but they're not quite as helpful, and "Trouble" foods that you shouldn't eat more than once or twice a week. There's also the "Dirty dozen" list of the 12 worst foods for your body. I'm including here just the oil portion of the Extraordinary and Average lists... Extraordinary:Fats and Oils (organic is best)oil, coconut, extra virgin (best for cooking)oil, olive, extra virgin (not for cooking)oil, butter (ghee)butter, goat’s milk, raw (not for cooking)butter, goat’s milkbutter, cow’s milk, raw, grass fed (not for cooking)butter, cow’s milkavocadococonut milk/cream (canned)oil, unrefined flaxseed (not for cooking)oil, unrefined hemp seed (not for cooking)oil, expeller-pressed sesameoil, expeller-pressed peanutAverage: Fats and Oilssunflower oilsoy oilsafflower oil Okay...here's the trouble fats and oils....

Calm Posted March 17, 2014 Posted March 17, 2014 (edited) Okay...here's the trouble fats and oils.... Fats and Oils [Canada Oil... Definitely agree, not good for eating... http://www.pajamadeen.com/world-news/canada/alberta-canada-oil The name "canola" was chosen by the board of the Rapeseed Association of Canada in the 1970s. The "Can" part stands for Canada and "ola" refers to oil.[5][6] However, a number of sources, including dictionaries, continue to claim that it stands for "Can(ada)+o(il)+l(ow)+a(cid). These dictionaries include the The American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language and Random House Kernerman Webster's College Dictionary.[7] The name was coined partially to avoid the negative connotations of rape. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canola The yellow fields that just go on and on in Alberta are beautiful. And two Canadian oil fields in one (very efficient, those Canadians): PS: you will find if you stick around long I am obsessed with most things Canadian having lived there for a quarter of my life, longest time ever in one place…though where we are now is coming close (which is both good and bad, because this is a very, very good place but it isn't Canada…my ideal world would be Calgary being the next town over from where I currently live, with just like now the mountain out the front windows being the Wasatch Maple Mountain because it is the only really green one in the valley and green is best and being able to see Banff National Park out the other).

thesometimesaint Posted March 17, 2014 Posted March 17, 2014 All vegetables contain fat. So I don't see the need to introduce more fat by adding oil. Of course some vegetables have more fat that others. but none that I know of are totally fat free. Plus some of the essential vitamins(A,D. E, and K) are fat soluble only. Also to maintain skin elasticity, and nerve function fats are needed in your diet. People need between 10% and 15% of their daily intake of calories to come from fats and oils. You can set yourself up for serious health problem by no eating any fat.
