Will - awesome insights for in Mexico, using the " gently does it " approach. The other thing that occurred to me, , is that if your are eating indigenously (ie. eating a lot of the traditional foods of Mexico) is to be aware that, in the main, the oils used in food preparation are of the saturated and trans fat variety (like hydrogenated oils) ...a huge no-no for GB and cardiovascular disease. On one particularly memorable night in March of this year, what triggered one of my worst GB attacks was a visit to a local Mexican restaurant. The hydrogenated cooking oils the food was slathered in, in combo with the spices used, really gave me a run for my money. If at all poss...stick to using extra virgin olive (first cold pressed) and flax seed oil in all food preparations (or raw, unprocessed butter, as Will recommends) and also supplementing with the Omega 3s and 6s (or eating oily fish like salmon). In less than half a year, I've managed to reduce my cholesterol levels by half with diet alone...not by eliminating all fats, just the bad ones. I wasn't in the dangerously high cholesterol range, relatively speaking, but conscious eating has brought my levels down significantly, nonetheless. It's definitely a good place to start with the gently, gently diet approach, before bringing out the big guns. Blessings, n Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 9, 2004 Report Share Posted August 9, 2004 Will, , n - The olive oil & flax seed are both good to use, but let's not forget coconut oil. It's very healthy to eat, and good for numerous ailments/illnesses/diseases. I cook with it all the time. Cathie From: momazmat@...
