The truth about eating FAT | Liz Earle Wellbeing

[@16Elless]

I love oily fish, cheese, nuts & seeds. Not an avocado fan! I used to have Flora Pro Activ because of raised cholesterol (never seemed to make any difference!) & always used sunflower oil for cooking, had low fat yoghurt & low fat cottage cheese as that was what we’d been told was healthy!! Now I use EVOO, grass fed butter & full fat everything! Along with far less carbs & UPF plus trying to make sure I have at least 14 hours with no food I’ve dropped around 20lbs & maintained it for nearly 2 years. No longer overweight & on no meds, coming up for 65. Just wish we’d known all this years ago!

that's so good to hear! ❤

New subscriber,I'm a fan already,a lot of catching up on your vlogs,I think❤

[@lizearlewellbeing]

Oh fabulous! Thank you so much for subscribing ❤

[@laurelward2297]

Absolutely correct. I've been listening to a couple of Drs and they say the same. I feel a lot better since cutting out the carbs like pasta etc. Eating more avocados, cheese (for me goats or sheep). I use olive and coconut oil for cooking. I actually have started using butter but not much. And with all my increased 'good' fats intake, I feel much better and fuller, and have actually dropped weight.😊

That's so good to hear - thanks for sharing!

[@lorrainemurton6004]

Great talk Liz ....I have been doing low carb for 4 years and it works ...you have to try it to believe it x

[@lizearlewellbeing]

Glad you're finding helpful ❤️

[@kimthom5793]

Sometimes i cant get any motivation after studying for decades what's good and not good foodstuff. Thankfully you always give me that little perk to show i am doing the right thing. Hard when family members have problems with dairy though as its much more limiting. Thanks for that lovely vlog.❤

[@lizearlewellbeing]

thank you for your lovely comment! ❤

[@14doughnut]

Couldn’t agree more, and I eat all of those, but I think way to much, love an idea on maximum amounts per day

[@lizearlewellbeing]

Thanks for sharing ❤️

[@Julie-netball]

So true, processed food industry but also pharmaceutical companies. When we are healthy, we don't need their drugs! And no money for them!

[@16Elless]

Almost like they planned it that way!

[@jennieoh8543]

I eat very similar to you, Liz!!!! And I must say you feel so much better as well. TY :*)

[@lizearlewellbeing]

You are so welcome!

[@junematte3441]

Great video I have been feeling great eating more healthy fats

[@lizearlewellbeing]

Thanks for sharing - great news!

[@Infp996]

I couldn’t agree more, French people diet is full of fats and they are healthy, beautiful and age well

[@lizearlewellbeing]

Absolutely!

[@kimb7535]

Lots of great advice as always Liz! Here in Southern Spain we're lucky to be able to enjoy plenty of local avocados & olives/olive oil, also sardines freshly cooked at beach bars! I'd also add nuts & seeds to the list of healthy fat sources x

[@lizearlewellbeing]

😍😍

[@naomifenton2159]

Love all the foods you mentioned ❤I cook the same foods love your recipes and your magazine

[@lizearlewellbeing]

Thanks so much 😊

[@jantaylor6252]

So true liz. The 80s nhs guidelines ruined us. Luv ya girl. X or an egg and avocado wblack pepper. I love toasted piece of bread spread with tin sardines. In the oven for ten mins. I mash cut up garlic in ŵith avocado. When toast and sardines cool a little spread avo mix. Cup of tea bobs ur uncle....x😊

[@lizearlewellbeing]

Yum - sounds delicious! Thanks so much for sharing

[@clairetritton-patrick4237]

Love this Liz. How about nuts and seeds??

[@lizearlewellbeing]

Yes! Liz chats more about nuts in this video here, but definitely a good source! ❤ kzbin.info/www/bejne/i5u4hHl4hL-diposi=VBvdc6eyfC8yDzSw

[@Gezabelle56]

Hi Liz, as a vegetarian, I like the fact that fish is the only thing here I wouldn't eat. I agree with all that you say and I do try to eat in this way. However, I use extra virgin olive oil for everything but should I use it for cooking? I have read differences of opinion and I'm confused......... Gez

[@lizearlewellbeing]

Yes you can ❤️

[@zoevaughan-france3347]

I prefer gluten free bread etc as I just can’t go without carbs. However they are full of additives . Advice please. I just can’t resist the crunch you get from cereal/toast etc.

[@lizearlewellbeing]

we love sourdough! ❤

[@siobhanlardner8400]

Full fat Greek yogurt is the fat I love …. Any advice on how much saturated fat we can eat per day ? Think I might be eating too much 😭

[@lizearlewellbeing]

We've recorded some interesting podcasts on saturated fat which you might like to listen to lizearlewellbeing.com/podcast/rethinking-saturated-fat-and-cholesterol-with-zoe-harcombe/ ❤️

[@sharonwalker4606]

Totally agree with eating good fats. My fav’s are kerrigold butter, olive oil, olives not a lover of avocado, tried & tried but just don’t like them. If you watch Dr Bergs recent video he shares how eggs can be tainted with all sorts of nasties from the chicken feed! & recommends pasteurised organic

[@lizearlewellbeing]

Thanks for sharing!

[@Jane51cat]

I also love full fat Greek yoghurt

[@lizearlewellbeing]

Us too!

[@sharonc9235]

Eggs ? Great info.Thank you!

[@lizearlewellbeing]

One of Liz's faves - she talks more about eggs in this video here ❤kzbin.info/www/bejne/i5u4hHl4hL-diposi=VBvdc6eyfC8yDzSw

[@14doughnut]

And what do you think of MST oil

[@lizearlewellbeing]

We think MCT oil can be extremely helpful for fasting - we've recorded a KZbin on here on the benefits of it!

[@zoevaughan-france3347]

My Dad has very high blood pressure and had Benecol etc instead and gas been told to keep away from olive oil. I don’t agree with him-who’s right please?

[@lizearlewellbeing]

Hi Zoe! We're unfortunately not able to offer individual medical advice as we don't know the full picture but we do think that fats are an important part of your diet - hope that helps ❤️ Thanks, Rachel (social media manager)

[@danagodfrey2979]

Avocado s love them but there is a lot of other things as well to cheers

[@lizearlewellbeing]

Lots of options!

[@elainech6387]

Yet, the NHS is still giving outdated advice on fat.

[@lizearlewellbeing]

Hopefully you found this video helpful!

[@juliemercer1458]

I think maybe over the years women have been brainwashed into thinking we have to look a certain way that the word fat has us recoiling in horror......Salmon is my favourite fish however fish eaters be careful where you get it from, some farmed fish are fed dyes in their diet to give them the colour we expect them to be.....as a snack my go to is a boiled egg or pink lady apple slices with cream cheese ❤

[@lizearlewellbeing]

Really good tips - thanks so much for sharing!
