Guest guest Posted April 3, 2006 Report Posted April 3, 2006 Here is a good book for your MIL. 21 Days to a Healthy Heart by Al . Al is a former vegetarian. He talks about the egg myth and how it got started. He also saw one of his friends totally reverse Type 2 Diabetes with a diet of grass fed meats, eggs, and good oils and fats. He writes about that in one of the chapters. I know him personally and it is really a good book. Jeanne Quote

She has awful yeast problems, and she wants to start eating " healthy " . Thing is, she's got Hashimoto's and her cholesterol is going up, so her doctor put her on a cholesterol-lowering med and told her to avoid beef and pork and eat no more than 3 eggs per week. When she talks about this, I just want to shake her! Her doctor's giving her BAD advice, and she's not ready to listen. She wants to start eating lower carb, but she's like me and she wakes up famished. She wants a quick breakfast, but she's convinced that she can only have 3 eggs per week. *sigh* I feel like beating my head against a wall sometimes. in IN Quote
