    Fruit good or bad for you

    What's the bad thing about to stay away from fruit, besides the pleasure they give. There's no nutrition (vitamins or minerals) found in fruit you can get from vegetables with much less sugar.

    Other meats

    Love both venison and ostrich as a change to grass-fed beef and pork, fried in butter and served with more butter melted and a splash of brandy/cognac for a lovely taste. But nothing beat a lovely grass-fed rib eye.

    Alternatives to the usual

Bad fats cause inflammation in the body and main cause for cardio vascular disease.
