Happy first weekend of March.

Pre-Spring is always a good time for a challenge.

How is everyone doing with their March Intermittent Fasting Challenge?

I hope well.

I also hope you are continuing the February Lower Carbohydrate Challenge.

Low Carb and Intermittent Fasting are a tremendously healthy one-two punch for moving towards more optimal health.

I’d like to again thank the growing number of subscribers to my blog, Common Sense Health and Wellness. As I always say, I neither want nor expect all my readers to agree with everything I write. But I hope it makes you think and possibly question some older traditional health and wellness beliefs that may be more fiction that reality. Either way I hope it makes you think and allows for free and open discussion and debate here in the comments section without fear of peer pressure or censorship.

A paid version of Common Sense Health and Wellness comes with a few perks.

1- 25% discount on Supplements from Wellevate Nutritional supplement distributor.

2- At some point in the future we may have some group Zoom health and wellness discussions.

So yes, I do not believe that sugar or glucose is our primary fuel. I believe it is fat that we have stored or fat that we eat. Although I believe the fat is constantly being moved around and shuffled throughout our body for different needs.

But not all fat is created equal.

Speaking of fat:

Guess who eats more natural fat?

Is it Bill “I wanna jab the world and get everyone to eat soy and bugs” Gates.

Or is it the guy on the right P.D. Mangan whose diet is Lower carb and carnivorish who eats natural fats?

Natural fats are healthy. If it came naturally from an animal, fish, bird, egg, milk… it is natural and humans have been eating/drinking this type of fat forever. The war on this natural fat must end. While I will not be getting into this today, natural dietary saturated fats are also NOT bad for you .

So the follow up question should be, “What is an unhealthy fat?”

Answer is anything industrially processed that humans have not eaten prior to the past 100 years. Example below.

A real fat such as butter has one ingredient- BUTTER.

A real fat such as olive oil has one ingredient- OLIVE OIL.

Fat naturally found in fish is healthy.

Fat naturally found in Avocados is healthy.

Fat naturally found in dairy, eggs and cheese is healthy

Look though at the ingredients for the fake fat pictured above. If it reads like something out of a college organic chemistry class I don’t think it is something you would want to consume. Unfortunately MOST restaurants use fake fat in their kitchens. Another reason to learn to cook at home so you can choose your ingredients wisely.

Now for some winning stories I have seen recently.

Winner #1

There are many benefits to a lower carbohydrate diet. Here is a good story about it’s use for Multiple Sclerosis (M.S.)

Winner #2

Here is an interesting thread on how science and media has been corrupted.

Winner #3

In the same vein as #2, here is a story of how the government influenced the media via $$ to push new stories in their preferred direction.

I will close with a funny pic that sure made me think of ADD.
