Message: <blockquote data-quote="NDwalleyes" data-source="post: 154091" data-attributes="member: 218">Funny you bring this up.....I know a lot of guys on here like to cook so I'm going to share my last few weeks.I was in the same boat as the OP. Understand that I am old school and 45. Here is how I think....If you look at pictures of people from the 1940's, what do you see? Healthy flat bellied people. Now, granted they worked harder than we did, but the big difference is they ate different. When the 1950's came around our diets changed. Everything has been about convenience ever since then. Processed food made with oils and sugar.I really like food, and good food. I enjoy cooking. My background is in medicine and I don't trust doctors and believe that the pharmaceutical companies use doctors to push their agendas/products. Most doctors trust what they are taught in school about diet and eating, and where does that come from? The government....and I don't trust them either.I tripped across an article written by this somewhat rouge doctor. Here name is Catherine Shanahan. She is a biochemist and genetics major who went to medical school and is in charge of nutrition for the LA Lakers. I liked the way she thought. Found out she wrote a book   <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/1452861382/?tag=nodakangler10-20" target="_blank">https://www.amazon.com/dp/1452861382/?tag=nodakangler10-20</a>  She also has another one out. She can sound like someone who may have camped out by a ND pipeline crossing at times but her thought process is dead on.The premise of this book is basically if they didn't eat it 200 years ago you can't eat it. It is all about sugars and cheap oils being in most things Americans eat and the decline in our health since the 1950s. If forces you to cook/bake. It allows you to love good fresh food. You can eat all the natural meat, oils/fats, vegetables, grains you want. Basically you have to cook like your (great) grandma did 100+ years ago....Like frying your farm eggs in butter or floating them in lard. I'm down 15 lbs in 3 weeks. Have eaten a lot of things I would otherwise never have eaten. Homemade "sprout-grain" bread? Never heard of it. Its awesome. It is a bit of a challenge, as you have to grocery shop 2-3 days a week for fresh vegetables. It helps having the wife doing it too, but if you like to eat, cook and be in the kitchen this is actually pretty easy. I do miss sweets from time to time.</blockquote>
