Guest guest Posted February 13, 2006 Report Share Posted February 13, 2006 > > Is flax seed ok and is the lard you are talking about like crisco? Hi , NO, flax seed and oil are NOT ok. Bee says to stay away from them because they quickly go rancid. Lard is not Crisco. It is Lard--rendered pork fat. If your grocery store carries it, it is generally found in the baking aisle where the other oils and shortenings are. Sometimes it is found near the " mexican " foods as well. You could also ask for it at the meat counter. hth, jackie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let me give you a little information that might help you kind of understand why this logic doesn't make sense. When you need to lubricate an engine, what do you use? Oil of course. Imagine your arteries are like an engine.. the oil is a lubricant to those arteries. Those artereries need protein to maintain their structure (because your heart is as muscle and muscle is built from protein) and oil to keep them lubricated. Now what happens if you put sugar in car gas tank, or add sugar to the oil you put in your car? You get a gummed up engine. This is basically what happens in the body, because on some fundamental levels, your body works like a car. First of all, all carbs are converted to glucose in the body.. basically sugar. It doesn't matter if you get the carbs from eating a tablespoon of sugar straight or from a piece of bread or even pasta or potatoes. Eventually it turns into glucose (sugar) in the body. Because veggies have fiber to slow down the absorption of sugar (to better allow the body to deal with it) and nutrients for the body, veggie carbs are not that bad. Also most veggies have very little carbs. However, what happens if you leave ice cream in the sun? It gets very sticky! Your body is warm like the sunlight that would melt the ice cream. That sugar " sticks " to your arteries, and it gums up the fat and causes blockages. So oil of any kind is not the problem.. it always has been sugar. Hope that makes sense.

Be sure to get your lard from a rancher who raises the pigs free-range and natural! Bee says flax seed is not so great. She can explain better. - T Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 23, 2006 Report Share Posted March 23, 2006 > > Struggling to find the ratio. > I weigh 120pounds and am 5'2 " > Can someone help? ==>See the Candida Diet Folder for the Ratios of protein to fat to carbs and calculate your ratios according to your height as it states, translating inches to centimeters (inches times 2.54) and subtract 100 to get your protein grams - the other calculations are based on the protein grams (fat is 2.5 to 3.5 times protein and carbs are .8 times protein grams).
