Weekend Links: Duel in Dallas Edition

In less than an hour the undefeated Patriots will take the field against the unbeating the Cowboys. Many have said it's the biggest game of the year and a potential Super Bowl preview. I can't understand why the game isn't on TV nationwide. So I need to go to the bar with DirecTV and sip a couple of beers slowly. While I'm their rooting for the Patriots catch these links:

   Regarding olive oils and any other oils. They are still OILS and they are almost 100% fat, no matter how you put it. Its calorie density (or energy density),a measurement of the average calories per weight (gram or ounce), is whooping over 4,000 and that is a LOT. I used to be an Olive Oil Freak, I used to put an olive oil in everything but my tea. LOL.

   A few years ago I read Pritikin books and Dr. Dean Ornish books and I now hardly use oils at all. So, read and test for yourself. In short, they recommend to eat no-fat, low calorie density food, rich in nutrients and vitamins, eat in small portions.

   I personally feel much better by following those principles of eating. And Ornish recommends exclude Oils, all of them! So much for the health benefits of Olive Oils!
