    Amen brother. This is what I've tried to tell my family and they acted like I was crazy.

    He's 70. No one can say whether he'll live as long, or as well as Jack LaLane or not, but I want you to remember that weight is not the sole indicate or health.

    thank you! it's amazing how this is STILL not part of mainstream knowledge. thank the pharmaceutical companies who are busy hawking their wares, i suppose.
  • @amandakatedonovan

  • @yrmfrsagt
    Thank you for the very informative presentation.

    After listening to his lectures and reading his books, I can attest that what he professes makes good, simple sense.  He advocates nothing more than eating full-fat, whole organic foods over low-fat and non-fat conventional processed foods.

    Looking for evidence of lower heart disease and cancer on Crete - couldn't find it. Just says people of Crete consume a lot of olive oil. I DID find this "When researchers from the University of Crete recently compared residents of Crete who had heart disease with residents free of the disease, they found that the residents with heart disease ate a diet with “significantly higher daily intakes” of monounsaturated fats (principally olive oil) as well as all fats."

    True Food Kitchen restaurant chain belongs to him, good food but pricey, almost all organic...

    So when olive oil kinda burns your throat or tastes slightly spicy it's good? Wow I thought mine was maybe rancid because of that.

    I eat a high carb, low fat diet - I weigh average 110-115. A good friend- same height - has always eaten a lot of meat, a lot of fat - she's probably close to 200 lbs., if not more. Wonder why.

    I think omega 6 itself is not the problem per say but rather that it is rancid or rotted omega 6. that people are eating. I ate extra virgin olive oil once off a spoon, and I almost vomited, I got the dry heaves, my body absolutly didn't like it, so I use it in salad dressings. I love my whole milk too. yummy.

    Not always do we do what we know to be right, right? Still the right´s Information´s right if you research. He may be doing all the right stuff Except Not eating Lots and Lots... that could be it. Have half a sweet potatoe vs have 5, as a side dish, for example.... you´ll get a belly. There are body types as well which help the outcome of looks.

    I think nature thought it right, eat all kinds of meats and fats nature offeres, plus the vegetables. No processed, or super super suuuuper minimal intake just for the fun of doing bad once in a while.
