Guest guest Posted April 25, 2002 Report Share Posted April 25, 2002 >So much to learn and un-learn Pam - Isn't this the truth! Yes, I'm concerned about the whole mercury contamination thing with fish, too. And it's not like we know exactly where they're getting these fish from, either! Plus the fact that you have to take so much of the fish oil to be useful. Sigh. It's sometimes so hard to decipher all these conflicting sources! Like what you were saying about coconut oil...I just picked up a booklet yesterday from the doc that says to stay away from coconut and palm oil because they are vegetable sources of saturated fat and will raise your cholesterol! But I have heard the same nasty things about canola...I stay away from that. That's interesting about using the light olive oil for baking. I was wondering if that could be done. About the only time I use Crisco is for baking. I'd like to substitute olive oil instead. Does your grandmother use the same amount of olive oil as you would Crisco (or similar type things) or is there some magic conversion? I'd like to try that! LOL - I know my hubby probably wouldn't notice the difference if I put flax oil in his salad dressing! What a great idea! I know what you mean about protein...it's so hard to focus on that. I'd like to try the flax oil, but I was a little worried when I read that one article that talked about the quality of it being important and that if it's poor quality, then it actual can have some toxins that you wouldn't want in your body. Did the people at Bastyr have any suggestions for how you tell a good quality flax oil product from a poor one? There's limited places here that I could get flax and I'm afraid it's likely to be mass-market mediocre quality! Thanks for the great discussion on this...it's really given me a lot to think about!

Smart Beat has a trans fat free shortening. Now I better check to see if it's from canola oil or not, huh.

Guest guest Posted April 26, 2002 Report Share Posted April 26, 2002 another source of Omega 3 - yesterday I found some flax seed meal - ground flax seeds - and I put some in my oatmeal this morning and it was great. This is what I can add to my protein shakes, yogurt, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
