Patricia, you are absolutely correct, it shows that you’re an authority on the subject. I admire someone that takes the pride you have and with your projecton of information. oSo when i actually do sit down to read material, I appreciate well written and organized blogs like this one. I have it bookmarked and will be back. Thanks.

What a wonderful article and interview! Thank you so much, I’ll have to follow Elizabeth’s blog as well now. Eating well is so important! Though I’ll confess to falling off the wagon once in a while, generally I cook all of my meals at home and eat as healthily as I know how to do.

One nice thing about the “whole foods” movement is that it might make it easier for more people to get things like raw milk, locally made cheeses and beefs, et cetera. At this point in time we can’t do so, living where we do (can you believe my city won’t even let us have a few chickens for fresh eggs? Sigh!), but in the future, perhaps that will no longer be the case.

You are right about fats, too…I remember learning that in a nutrition class. Some of the gals freaked right out to hear that fats are actually good and necessary for the body!

Thanks Liz as usual for another great HTKYTA! I am currently (as always) trying to lose weight, and trying to incorporate real, natural, local foods into my diet. Thank you for introducing me to Elizabeth’s blog.

Awesome, Ms. Hypogirl. Cannot wait to listen to this podcast! Wonder where you’ll go with it…

Another interesting thing to note, fat is required for hormonal function. Low-fat diets do not allow our body the fat content needed to create hormones. Hello thyroid!! Also, our brain is composed of cholesterol… if we are eating no cholesterol, how will our brain be fed? Depression, anyone? Something to think about…

What a great post! I was going to discuss some of these items in my new Podcast. How funny – 2 posts this week are going to be topics in the podcast. Great minds think a like. I am in the process now of making foods that are healthier for me that include good fats. I haven’t eaten low-fat foods for a long time. I am also drinking the new real sugar sodas. Although I know I need to kick that habit.
I am going to check out the website now.
