Guest guest Posted August 13, 2006 Report Share Posted August 13, 2006 When I first started eating all this fat I got a bit squeamish as I think most people eat the SAD diet do that is so low in fat. I was told to take Swedish bitters which helps to produce more bile. I did that for awhile and now have no problems with fat. Swedish bitters are good for a lot of things.

Guest guest Posted August 13, 2006 Report Share Posted August 13, 2006 I second the sweedish bitters. Bile is extremely important in order to digest non-emulsified fats. It acts just like the egg lecithin used in making mayo. I would also like to add that I found increasing the amount of emulsified fats I ate (mayo and the like) helped more immediately. But you definately need the bitters. Oh, and one more thing - don't take the bitters at the same time as the fat. I did this by accident and felt like my stomach was a butter churn for a few hours afterwards. -Lana On 8/13/06, ALLYN FERRIS <aferris7272@...> wrote: > > When I first started eating all this fat I got a bit squeamish as I think > most people eat the SAD diet do that is so low in fat.

Guest guest Posted August 13, 2006 Report Share Posted August 13, 2006 Which bitters are the best or good to use? There is a link from nourishing traditions for bitters on Myvitanet.com. Im not sure which one she is talking about tho, because there are several herbal preparations on there. Thanks guys! -----oo > > I first took my bitters in the am but the then read the directions and they > say to take them in a glass of water at night before bedtime. > Allyn > > > ------------------------------------ > PRIORITY INVESTMENTS N' KOLLATERAL,INC. > ALLYN FERRIS > PRESIDENT > AFERRIS@... > 4548A WEST VILLAGE DR. > TAMPA, FL 33624 > tel: 813-961-1500 > fax: 813-996-9571 > mobile: 813-391-7965 > ------------------------------------ > > Re: Food Allergies and Absorption of Fat > > I second the sweedish bitters.

One of the tests for gluten intolerance is the presence of undigested fat in the intestines, because gluten damages the villi making it difficult to absorb fat. Gluten intolerance might explain your constant hunger and allergies as well. And since it's so common, I think it's worth looking into (going GF or getting tested for gluten sensitivity).

Guest guest Posted August 13, 2006 Report Share Posted August 13, 2006 If you hunt around a bit you can see which greens are in bitters; I remember dandelion greens, arugula, mustard, cress, and I think even cilantro are in there, depending on the source; there's a Chinese bitters as well. I think the whole " bitters " thing is just concentrating greens, so eating them should work well as well, and maybe better because of the other nutrients in there. > > > > > > When I first started eating all this fat I got a bit squeamish as > I think > > > most people eat the SAD diet do that is so low in fat.

Guest guest Posted August 13, 2006 Report Share Posted August 13, 2006 I must have been thinking of a different kind of bitters, here's the recipe I found for the real " Swedish Bitters " Swedish Bitters Recipe 10 gm. Aloe 5gm. Myrrh 0.2gm. Saffron 10 gm. Senna leaves 10 gm. Camphor 10 gm. roots 10 gm Zedvoary roots 10 gm. Manna 10 gm. Theriac venezian 5 gm. Carline Thistle roots 10 gm Rhubarb roots This mixture is put into a wide-necked 2 liter bottle and 1 1/2 liter of 38% to 40% rye or fruit spirit are poured over it. The bottle is left standing in the sun or near the stove for 14 days and shaken daily. The liquid is then strained and poured into small bottles, well stoppered and stored in a cool place. This way it can be left in the bottle until needed. The longer it stands in the bottle, the more effective it becomes! Shake well before use! Alternatively some of the liquid can be strained into a small bottle and used as needed for many years. --- In , " haecklers " <haecklers@...> wrote: > > If you hunt around a bit you can see which greens are in bitters; I > remember dandelion greens, arugula, mustard, cress, and I think even > cilantro are in there, depending on the source; there's a Chinese > bitters as well.
