The arguments in this short podcast sounded pretty convincing to me. That said, I don't have the proper background in chemistry to back what is said, so I thought of sharing it, hoping to get some input. So please, let me know what you think about it!

I have never been big on macronutrient things overall. I was raised on margarine and prefered the flavor but as an adult I have a bigger appreciation of butter but my wife and I for some reason love brummel and brown. Neither of us can explain why we are aware it does not have active cultures or anything that would give it a health advantage. Its literally the taste. Love avocado oil for its taste and high smoke point and coconut for taste. olive is fine and sorta neutral to me (which is funny because i have read avocado is the neutral one). I take fish oil pills because it has a noticable positive effect on my dry eye and now that I have been on them I really notice if I forget to take one. I like to add collagen to anything I can as its cheap and there is this whole thing from studies around cron with glycin to methionine ratios and im to lazy to keep real bone broth going. I do think its good to limit simpler carbs and fats. I view it as an arc that goes from sugars to simple carbs to fiber to protein to fats where fiber is the top and most healthy).
