"May also use nut butters from health food stores or from fresh ground nuts (this includes peanut butter, almond butter, cashew butter, walnut butter, sesame butter, and sesame tahini). Nut butters go well on celery sticks and crackers. Oils and Fats sunflower, safflower, olive, sesame, peanut, flaxseed (edible linseed), and soy oils. Use cold-pressed or expeller-pressed oils (available from health food stores), as they are safer for the heart and blood vessels. Do not use com oil or "vegetable oil" from an unspecified source, as this is usually com oil." - Alan Gaby, Preventing and Reversing Osteoporosis: What You Can Do About Bone Loss (Get the book.)

"Clarified" butter, like the ghee used throughout India, is pure butterfat that has been melted and drawn off from whole butter; clarified butter has a higher smoking point and a much longer shelf life than ordinary butter. Cheese Cheese is a prehistoric product, thought to have been discovered by humans transporting milk in pouches fashioned from animal stomachs. The enzyme in the stomach linings, rennet, would have curdled the milk, eventually turning it into cheese." - The New York Times, The New York Times Guide to Essential Knowledge: A Desk Reference for the Curious Mind (Get the book.)

"A: Some of my favorite foods are barbecued spareribs and corn-bread with butter, corn chips with salsa, chocolate, commercial peanut butter, and old-fashioned chili made of red meat covered with cheese. But these also give me indigestion, gas, and heartburn. I look for ways to make my favorite foods healthier. You may want to try the following ideas: ?Make barbecued spareribs without gobs of commercial sauce loaded with salt, sugar, butter, and vinegar; instead, use a spicy sauce of pineapple juice or honey, citrus, and chili pepper. ?" - James Dowd and Diane Stafford, The Vitamin D Cure (Get the book.)

"Organic Ghee or Butter Organic butter is acceptable when a fat is required, such as for frying. Do not allow the butter to smoke, as it becomes toxic. Organic ghee (clarified butter) may be a better choice since it lacks the milk proteins and is less allergenic than butter. Ghee is made by removing all the milk solids and water from butter, leaving only the fat. Ghee withstands higher temperatures well, making it ideal for cooking. My choice is Purity Farms Organic Ghee." - Raymond Francis, Never Be Sick Again: Health is a Choice, Learn How to Choose It (Get the book.)

"I use a light coating of butter, organic almond butter, or extra-virgin olive oil. Raw nuts such as almonds, walnuts, brazil, macadamia and pistachios are excellent, but no peanuts or peanut butter. Peanuts are said to have fungis and pesticides in them. Natural almond butter is good. Apricot seeds (from a health food store) taste better to eat with other nuts because they are bitter in taste. Pumpkin seeds and a high- quality greens formula containing spirulina and chlorella are also excellent." - Gregory, A. Gore, Defeat Cancer (Get the book.)

"Surprisingly, butter is cool—provided that you can get butter that doesn't contain antibiotics and bovine growth hormone and all the rest of the nonsense that many dairy farmers use. "Wait a second! Isn't butter high in saturated fat?" Absolutely, and let's put that bugaboo to rest. Natural saturated fats in moderation are not a problem. They do not raise cholesterol levels. They do not lead to heart disease. In fact, there is actually a diet that helps people lose weight, and lower cholesterol levels while eating as much meat and eggs and natural saturated fat as they like." - Jon Barron, Lessons from The Miracle Doctors: A Step-by-Step Guide to Optimum Health and Relief from Catastrophic Illness (Get the book.)

"For example, 1 pound of carrots weighs the same as 1 pound of butter, but the carrots are much less energy dense and lower in calories (due to the high water and fiber content) as compared to calorie-rich butter. Research backs up the claims that consuming foods high in water and fiber content is a great long-term weight management strategy. For example, researchers at Pennsylvania State University published the results of two recent trials in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition (May and June 2007)." - Steven V.

"Walnut butter or another natural, unsalted nut butter ?Green vegetables Q: I've always heard that white cheese is healthier than yellow. Is this correct? A: No, both white and yellow are high-fat and contain the wrong kind of fat. Both have lots of salt and many calories. Neither contributes to good health. Typically, cheeses that are softer and have more moisture, such as cottage cheese, feta cheese, and goat cheese, are less acidic. Their acid content is on a par with a serving of meat, but their nutritional value still lags—less protein, more fat, and more salt." - James Dowd and Diane Stafford, The Vitamin D Cure (Get the book.)

"Kitchen Conditioner for Coarse Hair For coarse, dry, frizzy hair, here's a super moisturizing treatment from the kitchen: 1 Melt one part butter and two parts olive oil together in a pot on low heat. 2 Immediately apply the warm (not too hot) melted mixture to your hair. 3 Cover your head with kitchen foil or plastic wrap and keep it on over the butter treatment for one hour before shampooing. • A Finer Oil Treatment C/ook up a rejuvenating hair mask for fine, dry hair: Mix one part olive oil with two parts glycerin." - Bottom Line Books, Uncommon Cures For Everyday Ailments (Get the book.)

"Although real butter does contain casein, as well as lactose, they are present in relatively small amounts. Some people who are mildly sensitive to casein or lactose can tolerate real butter, in moderation. Nondairy yogurts, cheeses, and sour cream are available, and some of them are tasty and satisfying. Because individual tastes vary so much, you should experiment with various nondairy products to see which ones your children enjoy. Examples of these types of products include tofii sour cream, soy cheese, and soy yogurt." - Kenneth Bock, Healing the New Childhood Epidemics: Autism, ADHD, Asthma, and Allergies: The Groundbreaking Program for the 4-A Disorders (Get the book.)

"Eggs are a good breakfast, just not smothered in butter and cheese. Cottage cheese is another high-protein breakfast food, and along with a serving of complex carbohydrate or fruit, it makes a great breakfast. Even a few tablespoons of peanut butter or almond butter (not half the jar) on a piece of toast may be adequate, especially if a person is in a hurry. Whey protein smoothies are another easy way to start the day. Any lean protein can be eaten at breakfast, along with a moderate amount of carbohydrates and a reasonable amount of fat. Rule 5: Reduce the amount of carbohydrates you eat." - Byron J. Richards, The Leptin Diet: How Fit Is Your Fat? (Get the book.)

"Studies have shown that vitamins and minerals from vegetables are better absorbed when eaten with butter. However, it is best to choose butter produced from the milk of grass-fed animals free from growth hormones. Another dairy product, milk, is quite a different story. Today's non-organic pasteurized milk that most people drink comes from cows that have been fed hormones and antibiotics, and comes from the grocery store where it is three to four weeks old." - Dr. David W. Tanton; Ph.D., A Drug-Free Approach To Healthcare, Revised Edition (Get the book.)

"It occurs in two ways: The body manufactures some, and the remainder comes from the cholesterol found in the fat in the animal products we consume, such as meat (including poultry), fish, eggs, butter, cheese, and whole milk. Fruits, vegetables, and whole grains do not contain cholesterol. Processed foods, such as doughnuts, that contain trans fats (a type of unsaturated fat associated with increased risk for heart disease), and even whole or unprocessed foods with saturated fats, such as beef, cause your body to make more cholesterol." - J. Douglas Bremner, Before You Take that Pill: Why the Drug Industry May Be Bad for Your Health (Get the book.)

"The difference is that in the case of allergies, the trigger is a known, quantifiable external stimulus (peanut butter, eggs, pollen, dust mites, trees, grass, mold), whereas in most cases of autoimmunity (other than celiac disease) the causes can often only be ascertained (or only guessed at) after disease strikes. When the immune system is pushed to turn haywire in one area, it's more likely to go haywire in many areas. Some studies support the theory that rising rates of immune-system-mediated illnesses are attributable to our living in too pristine a world." - Donna Jackson Nakazawa, The Autoimmune Epidemic (Get the book.)

"Milk products, such as butter, cheese, and yogurt; beef or lamb • Any unsweetened juices from above Bottom line: The triggers are going to be different for different people, so you have to do your own science experiment with you as the subject. Take your health in your own hands and figure out what's really going on. When you identify the foods that cause your symptoms—or contribute to them—it's one of the most liberating experiences you can imagine. You may feel better than you have in years—even more so because you took charge of your own health." - Jonny Bowden, Ph.D., C.N.S., The Most Effective Natural Cures on Earth: The Surprising, Unbiased Truth about What Treatments Work and Why (Get the book.) "That means high-quality protein, good fats, such as olive oil, coconut oil, some butter, avocado, flaxseed oil, fish oil, and nuts, and some low-sugar fruits, such as grapefruit and berries. Get the sugar out of your diet and reduce calories, something that will be a lot easier to do on a higher-protein, lower-carbohydrate diet. It's just way easier to manage blood sugar and bring down insulin levels with a diet higher in protein, fiber from vegetables, and good fats than it is on a diet high in refined carbs, flour, and sugar, even if it's lower in calories." - Jonny Bowden, Ph.D., C.N.S., The Most Effective Natural Cures on Earth: The Surprising, Unbiased Truth about What Treatments Work and Why (Get the book.)

"Cocoa Butter Cocoa butter, Oleum Theobromatis (also spelled Cacao butter), is a non-irritating, yellowish-white fat derived from the nut of the chocolate tree (Theobroma cacao). It is probably the best general base for boluses and suppositories. It is hard and wax-like at ordinary temperatures, but melts at 86 to 95° F. (30 to 35° C). It can be incorporated with powdered herbs, small portions of aqueous substances, or with oils, and it does not become rancid. The cocoa butter melts from the natural temperature of the body and releases the herbs." - James Green, The Herbal Medicine-Maker's Handbook (Get the book.)

"To do a milk challenge test, eliminate the following foods for three weeks: all milk products, dried, evaporated and skimmed milk, butter, calcium caseinate, casein, caseinates, cheese of any kind, cream, creamy sauces and soups, curds, dried milk solids, lactose, lactoalbumin, margarine (some may contain milk products), mayonnaise (some may contain milk products), puddings, whey and yogurt. Packaged foods such as muffin, pancake and cake mixes may contain dried milk.

"You Are Not What You Eat In 2005 it was considered reprehensible to feed your child butter; today, it's reprehensible to feed your child margarine. You must be thin, but not too thin. Bran is fast fading as a salutary "must" that lowers your cholesterol and burnishes your colon. Now eating some fish will save your life thanks to omega-3 content, unless the mercury content does you in first. A diet low in carbohydrate is good for you, or not. A diet low in fat is good for you, or not." - Nortin M. Hadler MD, Worried Sick: A Prescription for Health in an Overtreated America (Get the book.)
