Your body recognizes and can assimilate Butter, Ghee, Lard, Tallow, Olive Oil which ALL have benefits in moderation and in conjunction with other healthy natural foods. Your body CANNOT recognize or digest highly processed, altered man-made foods. Take it back to basics and question what you are told is healthy. Common sense eating is knowing that your body can’t function optimally on a highly processed diet. Natural Fats don’t make you fat, neither do fresh fruits but highly processed artificial foods wreak havoc on your entire system. Most natural foods are not unhealthy, yet they work synergistically in combination with other ingredients . Eating in moderation and eating natural whole foods is never a bad thing. In TCM, we receive more than double the hours of nutritional studies as western medical schools and the curriculum is not written by or sponsored by big chem or pharma.
So when I bring my 85 year old Dad fresh fruit into the hospital and the staff tells me to stop bc it’s going to give him diabetes while they feed him orange jello and cranberry juice, I’ve got to wonder where the system went wrong here. Western medicine is the best for acute care and good for many things, but as it stands now it’s lacking in nutritional knowledge to a shameful degree. This isn’t eastern vs. western. They both are inherently helpful in different ways. Yes we can all appreciate what they both offer and acknowledge they work well together, but look critically at what’s missing and demand better.
It’s about keeping it real, back to basics and using your own critical thinking skills that will keep u healthier. “Dont give him fresh fruits” they said today in the hospital. Instead they are feeding him jello, fruit juices, sweetened apple sauce and believe that is somehow better🤦‍♀️ 🤔 make it make sense. Please.
