Someone asked for CO recipes
Here is my chimichurri sauce. I think it is great on eggs in addition to flank steak .

1 bunch italian parsley
1 bunch cilantro
1/2 cup coconut oil
1/3 cup a mix of lemon and lime juice
2 garlic cloveS
3/4 cup red pepper flakes
1/2 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp salt

Remove tough stems from fresh herbs. Puree all in food processor

For my flank steak i do a dry rub of cumin salt pepper garlic and ground coriander. No measurments just sprinkle on as i pull them out of the cabinet.
Grill as you like.

Eating too much of the chimichurri is how i learned not to over consume the CO.

Sounds tasty!

I have a friend with gout, high protein diet aggravates it.

Uses allopurinol to suppress the uric acid.

Any suggestions?


.

I dont buy this. Nothing generates uric acid like a high carbohydrate diet.......especially when fructose is the number on fuel. Most people dont get gout because of protein these days. 99% get it due to excessive carbs and itmalmost always walks hand and hamd with htn too. For thensame reason

YES, that, too! I'm telling you there is so much conflicting BS out there on the internet about Coconut Oil that there is just no way to know where the BS ends and TRUTH begins. Some "Expert Doctors" say Coconut Oil is a hazard. Scott Isaacs, MD says, " FOODS TO AVOID: TROPICAL OILS SUCH AS PALM OIL OR COCONUT OIL" pg 156 in his book, "The Leptin Boost Diet." How confusing is THAT ? ? ? ? ?

Comparing Coconut oil to Hydrogenated Oil ? ? ? ? ? Is he CRAZY? Or am I crazy?
Hormonal Balance by Scott Isaacs, MD -- Endocrinologist

There are also 4,000,000 hits on a google search, "coconut oil is bad for you." I don't even want to get into those articles.

HELP! We need Dr. Kruse to clear up this mess.

Grizz

there are ten million hits telling you cholesterol cause heart disease too. Do you think the number of hits makes something true? Start thinking for yourself. That is part of being optimal.

I couldn't agree with Adriana more!! If I were married to someone who would not stop smoking I'd leave, full stop. Let alone if I were suffering from asthma!!! He may as well be pointing a gun at you!!!!!

The day I was diagnosed with asthma was the day my husband started smoking outside.

Because calories in / calories out is bunk?

You might read the following about MCT oil (a large component of coconut oil)
Back Across The Line: MCT Oil Advantages

Thank you for the link, but:


Back Across The Line: MCT Oil Advantages

obese women with body mass index (BMI)>30 kg/m(2) received an isoenergetic (578.5 kcal) VLCD (Adinax, Novo Vital, Sweden) enriched withMCT or LCT (8.0 and 9.9 g/100 g Adinax respectively) or a low-fat (3 g/100 g) and high-carbohydrate regimen.

Only part of 578.5 kcal was MCT (coconut oil)

dr Kruse is taking a gallon/month, that is

8.5tbsp=126mL=994 kcal

Trying to get to the bottom of it.

How much CO/day

tbsp=???
mL=????

That was helpful, thank you.

I will give him your opinion.

He happen to have (heavy duty) hemohromatosis, possibly that have some influence?

I've never seen Dr. K. talk of micronutrient per centages. ??? I put tons of coconut oil in my BAB ... either in my coffee, green tea, or mixed into my eggs for a BAOB.

Please be more specific.

How many mililiters of Coconut Oil per day are you consuming?

8.5tablespoons=126mL=

126.17 Milliliters = 0.53 Cups

...

Are you drinking a half a cup of coconut oil every day??

If not that;
then how much (specifically).

Thank you for the recipe.

Is this sauce meant for a one person and one day??

If not, then for how long?

Do you ever juice the parsley and cilantro?

Then more of them could be used or juice from other greens could be added?

I had allergy tests years ago and am allergic to pet dander, smoke, seasonal crap and environmental stuff. My husband will never quit smoking. The more I ask, the worse he will act so I just don't. If I got him a book on quitting, he would be offended and wouldn't read it. Also we have 2 dogs and a cat. We've had them since they were little so I have made myself immune to them

JanSz, Juicing vegetables and drinking the juice is nothing more than dumping a concentrated amount of sugar spiking carbs into the digestive track.
Do a before and post juicing session with a glucometer and see what you get.
