Coconut Oil (natural, unhydrogenated),Selenium

[Guest guest]

Good article Jim,

Very interesting: says when canola oil is heated it changes into the bad

" trans fats " .,

Wish we could spread the word about the value of coconut oil and HIV-see

above article.

Also selenium's value in treating HIV

It is amazing, once you know the facts, that anyone is still talking

about them compared to the other markers for heart disease. Had statins

not been invented, chances are that we would not be.

The fact is that Cholesterol has been receiving a bad rap for marketing

reason, not health reasons. Further, if you are beyond the age of

about 75 years, and you have high levels, the chances are that you

will live longer than anyone with lower levels in your age group.

Beyond that, there are no types of cholesterol. Read these well

documented papers and learn the truth. Our focus on this marker has

served us poorly over the past fifty years. Simply put, we need it and

without we would die.

Thanks :

From what I gather, with enough heat, all cooking oils turn into

transfats, but Coconut and Palm oil can stand the most heat before they

change. This Coconut Oil site is simply loaded with great articles.

But of course, the coconut oil industry took it on t he chin for the

last 50 years and they need to get out the word. I have directed many

of my friends to it, since the address is so simple to recall.

Cheers, Jim
