Cooking and Food Storage

When cooking and handling food it is important to handle, store and

cook food correctly in order to retain healthy live-giving nutrients

available in them.

Do not overcook any meats or vegetables, in order to retain their

healthy nutrients and active enzymes, which are important for

digestion. Cooking at low temperatures for a longer period of time

is better than cooking at high temperatures that damage foods.

The best cooking oil is coconut oil - Of all the available oils,

coconut oil is the best for cooking because it is nearly a completely

saturated fat, which means it is much less susceptible to damage when

it is heated, and it can withstand higher heat than others (up to 375

degrees fahrenheit). It can be mixed half and half with butter to

increase the flavors in certain foods. Anytime you need an oil to

cook with, coconut oil can automatically be used in place of butter,

margarine, olive oil or any other type of oil in all recipes. Buy a

good quality coconut oil for cooking as described in the Coconut Oil

section above.

Do not microwave food, water or drinks - The most important rule in

cooking is not to microwave any food, not even to heat leftovers,

water or drinks. Recent research shows that microwaved food causes

severe molecular damage in the body. When eaten it causes abnormal

changes in human blood which can be viewed in a live blood cell

analysis. These changes cause deterioration and damage to the immune

system. In simple terms, microwave ovens change the molecular

structure of food with radiation. If manufacturers would have more

accurately called them " radiation chambers " it's doubtful they would

have ever sold one, but that's exactly what a microwave oven IS.

Do not buy irradiated foods - When food is irradiated the radiation

breaks up the molecular structure of the food and creates a whole new

set of chemicals known as " unique radiolytic products " (URPs). These

URPs include benzene, formaldehyde and a host of known mutagens and

carcinogens. Irradiation kills vitamins, friendly bacteria and

enzymes in food, and effectively renders the food " dead " and

therefore useless to your body. Regulations vary from country to

country, and even in the United States they can vary between states.

Check regulations in your area to find out what foods have been

approved for irradiation. As far as we know all spices in the United

States and Canada are irradiated, and in the United States some fresh

produce and meats are also irradiated.

The kinds of pots and pans to use - Cooking pots and pans must not be

aluminum nor Teflon coated. Teflon releases a gas that is harmful

when ingested in foods cooked in them.

Pots and pans made of cast iron are best. They need to be well-

seasoned with coconut oil before use. There are also good pots and

pans made of cast iron and coated with heavy enamel, which are very

good too. High grade stainless steel pans are also good, as well as

glass or stone.

Containers for storing foods - All containers for food should be made

of glass, and not plastic, because plastic releases gases that leach

into foods.

My wife and I have been cooking with coconut oil and find it almost

addicting. We were wondering if coconut oil can be reused after cooking

with it? Or should new oil be used every time?

Thanks!

==>Hi Andy. I pour all of the coconut oil over the foods I've just

cooked in it to obtain more fats, however you can re-use the oil over

and over without damaging it. You do not have to use new oil every time.
