Real Food Quote Monday
RFQM: “Eat Fat, Lose Fat”
It’s Monday – and time for another Real Food Quote Monday (RFQM). Today, I’m sharing a few paragraphs from Dr. Mary Enig’s and Sally Fallon’s book, “Eat Fat, Lose Fat.” The topic is saturated fats, at the beginning of Chapter 2, where Dr. Enig and Sally Fallon set the stage by pointing out where dietary conventional wisdom has gone wrong for the last four decades.
RFQM: Proteins Q & A
Another Real Food Quote Monday (RFQM), another Q & A… This question comes from a reader, Tiffany. She asks, “I was hoping you could explain about the proteins in beans and legumes. I’ve heard some vegetarian friends say you have to have a grain with your beans to make a complete protein out of the nutrients. It just doesn’t jive. If the nutritional content is 9g protein per serving, isn’t that what’s there?”
RFQM: Iodine Q & A
Today’s RFQM (Real Food Quote Monday) is also a Q & A. Someone asked my husband recently about regular table salt – don’t we need the iodine it contains? The answer surprised me.
RFQM: “Simple Sourdough” by Mark Shepard
How do you know if your sponge is ready? How do you know if you’ve added enough flour to your dough? I’m sharing these two tips in today’s Real Food Quote Monday (RFQM). They come from a 19-page, $3 booklet called “Simple Sourdough” by Mark Shepard. While the book isn’t heavy on details, it does a good job of introducing the basic sourdough bread process.
RFQM: Scoby Gone Wild
This week for Real Food Quote Monday (RFQM), you’ll hear a funny tale of a scoby (mother culture for the fermented Kombucha beverage) gone wild!
RFQM: “Cure Tooth Decay” by Ramiel Nagel
For today’s Real Food Quote Monday (RFQM), I’m quoting from Ramiel Nagel’s “Cure Tooth Decay.” Even though I’m reading it to find information about avoiding braces, I’ll share how he reveals the inconsistency in the modern theory of tooth decay.
RFQM: Salad Bar Beef
For today’s Real Food Quote Monday (RFQM), I’m quoting from Joel Salatin’s “Salad Bar Beef.” What stuck out to me were a few paragraphs in which Joel Salatin debunks research that puts down organic or natural growing methods.
RFQM: Devil In The Milk 3
What if you can’t get A2 milk? What if you can get A1 milk from an animal with a wonderful diet, but A2 milk from an animal whose diet leaves a little to be desired? I read some good advice in the recent Wise Traditions. It gives a balanced answer to these questions, and perhaps more unvoiced questions.
RFQM: Devil in the Milk 2
For today’s Real Food Quote Monday (RFQM), we’re still talking about the book, “Devil in the Milk” by Keith Woodford. Today’s quote answered a question for me. It is the first mention of the Guernsey cow – I had been wondering where that breed fit into the A1/A2 picture.
RFQM: Devil In The Milk
For today’s Real Food Quote Monday (RFQM), we’re talking about the book “Devil in the Milk” by Keith Woodford. Not all milk is equal! There’s a huge difference between milk that comes from modern cows versus milk from old-fashioned breeds such as Jerseys (or sheep and goats). Which you drink can have a serious impact on your health.
