Guest guest Posted August 16, 2007 Report Share Posted August 16, 2007 In the 80-10-10 book the claim is made that Fat is Fat. In other books the claim is made that whole food fats are not that same as animal fats. Where's the research that shows that the blood clumps after eating raw fats like avocado? David Wolfe claims that he knows people who have had their blood tested after eating high water fats and the blood didn't clump. Is the mainstream research on fat and blood all done with processed or cooked fats? In The China Study they discovered that an animal protein diet of 5-6% allowed the test animals to eliminate tumors and detoxify aflotoxins. They also asserted that using whole food protein they percentage could go up to the 10% range. That's a 100% increase! Couldn't the same disparity be true of processed/animal fats vs. raw whole food fats? I know that I feel different if I eat more fat. But it seems to be more of an effect from dry, concentrated fats like nuts that high water fats like avocado. Is anyone aware of research in this area? ..wyn The Raw Retreat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 18, 2007 Report Share Posted August 18, 2007 ..wyn, The very same thoughts have occurred to me. I would love to see what avocados do to the blood since it occurred to me that prehistoric humans would have eaten however many they wanted, and presumably with no ill effects. Since I love avocados, I would love to find out that the effects are different from consuming other overt fats. Wouldn't it be wonderful to eat avocados to your heart's desire?
