Re: milk thistle, not getting enough fat, and very weak

[Guest guest]

2. I am not getting enough of the right fats. I think this is because my liver is not metabolizing them properly. I take fish oil, flax seed, black currant, olive, coconut, and I eat a little steak. I still don't feel right (I even feel an openness in the front of my head) unless I combine walnuts and avocado, pecan and avocado, almonds and avocado, chicken and pecan, hazelnuts and avocado, sesame oil and sunflower oil, and it's still not enough. What on earth should I do?Can you eat butter? Usually it's pretty easy to eat more fat if you are mindful of it. I put tons of coconut oil and butter on my chicken breast; it really soaks it up! Also, things like lemon curd and hollandaise sauce are basically all fat (butter and egg yolks) and pretty tasty. You could blend egg yolks into your broth to get some extra fat.HTH!
