Interesting post about IBD...

Misinformation about Linoleic acid, Ulcerative Colitis and Irritable Bowel Syndrome

This doctor deals with the link between these diseases and vegetable oils. Very interesting!

He also deals with "Misinformation about linoleic acid and red meat".

Can't help but to wonder, did these diseases take off right after they told us that margarine was THE food to eat!

He gives even the 'favored child' =canola oil= a poor rating.

Last year, I bought about 1 bucket of shortening for icing. DH snuck and bought some canola for his frying....but other than that- I avoided it. Whew! Glad I did!
