I was just having this conversation with one of our staff members this evening and he showed me a new documentary called That Sugar Film which exposes just how much sugar is added to 'low fat' foods,,which would presumably be bought by those wanting to eat more healthily, just to give them some taste. Really quite horrifying how much is in things like fruit juices and sports drinks as well. Ideally our diets should not include processed foods and added sugars at all, keep fats to a sensible level (we do need a certain amount to stay healthy) and be low in carbs and high in fresh veges. You'd think it would be self evident but there are so many ridiculous fad diets and products emerging every year and being touted as 'the ultimate weight loss solution' it's no wonder people are confused. It really doesn't help when supposed authorities as that ridiculous American guy 'Doctor Oz' lie so egregiously on their shows that he's actually been called to answer a senate hearing for hawking various scam supplements that have absolutely no beneficial effect whatsoever.

I firmly believe butter has been part of a far greater scam on our health and well being,
consider 1KG of butter requires around 10litres of milk to make,

Back in the 70's it was realized farming could not support all of us eating butter so margarine was cleaned up and promoted and the healthy choice,
except for the trans fats and carcinogens that is.

It is very likely that animal fats are not actually that bad for us but more of a commercial/economic problem.

In early spring t you can witness an amazing “Golden Sea” of canola flowers. The canola flower fields in China are one of the world’s beautiful sight’s in small Luoping (Yunnan, China). Vast farmlands get covered in golden, yellow rapeseed flowers stretching as far as the eyes can see, all the way to the horizon. The best time to visit Luoping for this visual fiesta is February through March, by June the show is over.

I would have thought a man of your age and experience would have learned how to grow rapeseed by now, it is well worth it $$$$
Even looks better than a paddock of lupins in flower
We're you one of the lupins will save us brigade?

Always believed in eating natural in moderation. Well, as natural as commercially possible.

The butter and full cream milk argument has always amused me. "It's good; it's bad; it's good again; guess what? It's bad again. Oh,,,,, I don't know".

Yes Spikey There was a new one a few weeks ago
If you buy your junk food Pizza Burger etc Always have full sugar cool drink with it as it helps you maintain a healthier weight than drinking Diet soft drink

Why arent they researching cures for cancer or Diabetes maybe because Coke or Maccas are helping fund the research ?
