About a year ago my doctor declared me pre-diabetic with high blood pressure to boot. I decided to go on a low-carb, low sodium diet. I began to eat full breakfasts, consisting of whole eggs (fresh from a rancher who lives nearby), some bacon, and turkey or pork sausage that I made myself (lots of recipes online for sausage). I cook with olive oil exclusively and use unsalted butter every morning on my toast. I eat tons of fresh vegetables, both steamed and stir-fried. I also eat grass fed angus beef from another local rancher (Soaring Eagle Ranch, Rutheron, New Mexico). My fresh chicken comes from Wholefoods or Kellers (an Albuquerque store with their own farm fresh chicken and turkey). Sadly, I get to eat few potatoes and almost no rice or pasta anymore (I still miss the pasta). When I eat bread it is fresh baked whole wheat that my wife makes. The result: I lost 25 pounds and it stayed off (so far). I'm retired and living on a mountain lake in Northern New Mexico where I walk two miles (at 7500 ft. above sea level) each day in beautiful countryside. I feel wonderful. Thanks for reading this somewhat boastful and tedious testimonial. I want to support all these wonderful arguments for natural eating. I just turned 69. Thanks, everyone, for the great comments.

I used to eat a lot of fake fats and fake food, and had immeasurably difficult to manage health problems for years. It's a shame so much misinformation exists about real, healthy fats and that the mainstream medical community villanizes butter and fats so much. I have an article I wrote about the same subject, and am dedicated to education and awareness about traditional, real foods in our diets to combat illness, disease, and general bad health. Thanks for helping to spread the word about this important issue. We need all the help we can get! Here's a great link about butter and real fats, and also to a wonderful, non-profit web site forwarding educational materials about sustainable living, food, and farming: http://www.westonaprice.org/Why-Butter-Is-Better.html Here is the link to my butter vs. margarine article and my web site, Agriculture Society - sustainable living, nutrition through traditional foods, natural cures/remedies, food politics, and ecologically-sound ideas for the planet. http://www.agriculturesociety.com/?p=2717#comments I completely agree with everything you have said in this post.
