HOW TO EAT MORE FAT: 8 Easy Tips

[@alangeorgebarstow]

I eat (and cook with) bacon fat; butter; ghee; pork lard; beef tallow; duck, goose and chicken fat; and lamb suet. It's all I need.

[@marylynch951]

Same here

[@shapefixer]

yeah me too!

[@ingridferg9779]

I had a fat day yesterday: chicken back for breakfast; 250 g bacon for lunch, chicken back for supper with 3 TBS bacon grease. It really improved my mood today, as I was feeling low yesterday.

[@alangeorgebarstow]

What is 'chicken back', I've never heard of it? There is a lot of meat on the breast, but very little on the other side down its spine.

[@moibuspm]

I take a bite of butter and leave it between my cheek and teeth to slowly melt just like you would do if you had a mint. I do this about 4xs a day. I love it!

[@marylynch951]

I love kerry gold butter eat a tea spoon every day 😂

Hi, Andrew! Thank you for clarifying the protein powder. Also, thank you for all you do to educate us.

Sure thing!

I make a salad dressing with good Olive oil and vinegars, it includes the zest and juice of a lemon. I also have a tumeric drink that I add butter to ( I drink think when I am especially inflamed) and I take CLO twice a day. I can feel the benefits in my eyes and it improves fatigue levels...but my weight still varies. Finding out what works for the individual is a life long quest methinks. Thanks for sharing your wisdom. 🎉

'Tumeric'? Do you mean turmeric?

My son who trains me every day in order to get muscles after my colon cancer operation wants me to take protein powder. I have resisted so far. I just forgot in which video you already explained why not to take it. If possible, just give me the title and I will listen to it again. thanks in advance

[@shapefixer]

I'd have to go through them all to see where I said that, but I'm sure it was one where I was talking about the potential for blood sugar to rise if we dont eat enough fat, and taking protein powders instead of natural, fatty protein (eggs, fish, meat etc) means "more protein, less fat" and in the absence of carbs and fat, the body goes into "starvation" energy mode and breaks amino acids (protein) down for energy by turning it into ... guess what? Glucose! Happens in the liver, the process is called "gluconeogenesis". Then you're potentially back where you started, burning sugars again.

[@helgachollet-ricard2326]

Thank you for answering; Anyhow I. listen to your videos several times, hoping not to forget important explanations.@@shapefixer

Green, Black, Kalamata and all the other varieties of OLIVES. Yum!

[@Time_Traveler_Karen]

I cook with Ghee or Avocado oil

[@shapefixer]

nice!

[@Time_Traveler_Karen]

MCT oil

[@shapefixer]

Yes but not always something lying on the shelf in the grocery store like butter, olive oil or coconut oil are.

[@baranjan4172]

pork belly and pork knuckles with thick layers of fat, roasted till the skin is crispy. leaner meats - always with a teaspoon of butter or fat with every bite. ground beef - cooked with a load of fat mixed in and then eating the mix. i came to hate lean meats. they suck at sliding down the hatch 🙂

[@slr856]

[@Franklin-pc3xd]

He forgot avocado as a vegetable-based fat. Add to any salads - even add to meat dishes for add'l fat. Also, nothing wrong with adding a half stick of butter as a side with any steak that isn't quite up to snuff from a fat/marbling standpoint.

[@shapefixer]

100% correct, thank you! Avos are fantastic sources of healthy fat. Butter too! Goes well in coffee...

[@cathymaywoo550]

Is Collagen powder supplement considered a protein powder?

[@shapefixer]

Yes it would be, excellent point; so use it as a supplement, and don't use it as a "replacement" for the natural, fatty proteins you will get from eggs, oily fish, and red meat. It would be unwise to use your collagen supplement as a "meal" the way body builders do with protein powders.

[@cassieoz1702]

@@shapefixer unless, of course, you've completely lost your appetite for eggs, meat, chicken ...

[@shapefixer]

That could be tough... how about fish? Sardines are probably the ultimate "health bomb superfood"! Lots of Omega-3 oils, lots of collagen...

[@cassieoz1702]

@shapefixer ... and fish. I live 150km inland, in a rural area, and fresh (not frozen) fish isn't really available and im not keen on strong tasting canned fish. I can only eat sardines on buttered toast so that's out. I've always liked the protein foods but I just can't stuff myself with them. They are so satiating that have to stop after 4 or so bites, and don't get hungry again for many hours, so I end up undereating. 🫤

[@mancunianinlondon]

sometimes I cook streaky bacon until it's crispy, let it cool down and then it becomes like a bacon snack.

[@freedomfreedom6544]

Avocado oil mayonnaise

[@makelife9661]

Great info. What will happen if you eat sugar and fat? Which one will burn first?

[@Peter-wg7br]

Read about the "Randle cycle". High fat and high carb at the same time is actually not a good idea.

[@makelife9661]

@Peter-wg7br Thank you!

[@shapefixer]

The sugar, every time. The glucose in the blood spikes your insulin, which is catually a "fat storage" hormone, and blocks fat burning. That is why you will never lose body fat if you continue to eat carbs - even if you "count calories".

[@makelife9661]

@@shapefixer Thank you Andrew for your reply. It's getting more and more clear to me. The next part for me will be to get a list of what is good to eat and merge it into my life. Personally I do not care so much what I am not allowed to eat. I want to see it positive: what can I eat and how to continue it. BTW: I already lost more than 20 Kilograms by intermediate fasting (19 hrs. fasting and 5 hrs. eating) but I need to do 20 Kg more. All information is helpful.

Could somebody please help. I absolutely love ghee when I'm making scrambled eggs or cooking with it, but I keep trying it in my coffee and it tastes horrible. Am I doing something wrong or is it just not something I'm okay with?

Try butter in your coffee instead

@@shapefixer Try it on your skin too. I smash them into a paste and use them as a face pack. I smear it on, leave for a few hours then wash off with warm water. Leaves the skin feeling fab. The rest I eat with salt and pepper. They go nice with eggs and cheese. xx
