Guest guest Posted January 1, 2002 Report Share Posted January 1, 2002 Hi! Sorry for the misunderstanding. I didn't mean to imply not to eat fats. I think they are very important, especially butter. I eat butter, mayonnaise, olive oil and grapeseed oil and make sure I eat some every day. I still think once the body is able to eliminate toxins, returning to a healthy weight is better than carrying excess weight, and if I can get rid of additional toxins in the body at the same time, so much the better. I also agree that the brain is composed mostly of fat and if toxins have broken through the blood brain barrier, guess where you are storing toxins? Might have something to do with brain fog, don't you think? No references, just simple deduction. Merle Hess wrote: > NO NO NO! The reason the toxins are in your fat is because your organs cannot handle excreting them. I reduced my fat drastically and got worse. CFS is worse among then people, Cheny once said. When you lower body fat the fattest part left is your brain so you can redistribute there. Adding body fat is a good idea for most people. I have felt better doing this myself. It also depends on how you get the fat, just eating sugar and carbs would not be good. > > Happy New Year > > > Toxins in Fat > > Hi! Mike > > I agree with you completely. I also understand that toxins are stored in fat, so it makes sense that by getting rid of the fat, you would also reduce the toxins in your system. > > I wish I had lost weight, but I've gained about 20 lbs during the past three years and I was 20 lbs overweight when I got ill, so I should weigh 40 lbs less than I do. > > That is actually what I am working on now (not too successfully), but feel that it is the next step in getting healthier and also more active. > > The 'Bu Zhong Yi Qi Wan' is supposed to help reduce fat, in conjunction with providing more energy and help with kidneys and spleen.
