Topic:
Protein? Fat? Carbohydrates?
In this meeting we will delve into the subject of calculating macros. We will look at the questions: How much protein, fat and carbohydrate does it take to reach my target macros? What does that food look like in the real world? How do I make natural whole food meals based around these numbers? We will discuss methods of measuring carefully and also tips for “eyeballing” amounts.

When you find out how easy it is to do and the benefits it offers, you’ll be begging your farmers to save some of the extras for you! You’ll learn the most efficient ways to render the most fat along with the edible and non-edible uses that each kind of fat provides!

 French fries cooking in grass-fed beef tallow I made real French fries using grass-fed beef tallow!
My son says they taste as good as restaurant food. I’ve read that McD cooked their French fries in tallow until 1983, and that is what made them taste so good. In the 1980s everyone was convinced that animal fats were the source of all dietary evil and restaurants moved away from these traditional fats in favor of cheap industrial oils. Now that the problems with the industrial oils is coming to light I hope to see a move back to traditional fats and oils.

Saturated fat has long been demonized as the energy source most likely to raise “bad cholesterol” and thereby contribute to heart disease. Only recently is this beginning to change in the mainstream. Despite this, the disciplines of biochemistry and of cellular and molecular biology have been elucidating the positive and essential biological functions of saturated fatty acids for decades. Among these are included the following: regulating the fluidity of cellular membranes, anchoring proteins to membranes, and ensuring that proteins properly interact with one another and thus that proper communication takes place within and between cells. A number of specific saturated fatty acids also provide energy in unique ways that aid in improving body composition and intestinal health. Saturated fats, in fact, are so important that we synthesize many of them in large amounts from carbohydrate. This talk will explore the specific biological roles of saturated fats and conclude by discussing the health implications that these rules suggest for consuming saturated fat in the diet.
Chris Masterjohn, PhD
is assistant professor of health and nutrition sciences at Brooklyn College in Brooklyn, NY. In 2012, he obtained his PhD in nutritional sciences from the University of Connecticut, where he studied the role of vitamin E and other antioxidants in regulating the metabolism of methylglyoxal, a potentially toxic byproduct of energy metabolism that appears to contribute to diabetes and cardiovascular disease. From the fall of 2012 through the summer of 2014, he worked as a postdoctoral research associate at the University of Illinois in Urbana, where he studied interactions between fat-soluble vitamins A, D, and K. He is now continuing this research at Brooklyn College. Chris created and maintains a website Cholesterol-and-Health.Com which is home to his blog, The Daily Lipid. He has published eight peer-reviewed scientific papers and has contributed regularly to the pages of Wise Traditions since 2004.

“Fat Myths”

Conventional medicine and the main stream media all agree: dietary fat is the cause of all health ills. Yet traditional the diets of healthy traditional people varied greatly in the amount of fat, some going to considerable risks to obtain saturated animal fats.
Are low-fat diets healthy? Are high-fat diets healthy? What about the dangers of arachidonic acid or benefits polyunsaturated oils? What about studies that report to show that dietary fat causes heart disease? What did those studies show? What does the science really say? Chris Masterjohn tackles these difficult questions with humor and a well-grounded basis in science. This is a “must see” presentation for anyone following a low-fat diet or confused about fats.
 Good Fats, Bad Fats: Separating Fact From Fiction
In the modern era, the nutritional establishment has created the tall tale of a mythical transition from a low-fat diet associated with poverty to a high-fat diet associated with affluence and has considered this mythical increase in fat intake to be the scourge of modern, disease-producing diets. The establishment has likewise promoted the use of polyunsaturated vegetable oils to supply our needs of “essential fatty acids” and to lower blood cholesterol. Others have maintained with equal vigor that using large amounts of fat is necessary to displace harmful carbohydrates, and that this is the key to vibrant health. Traditional, health-promoting diets, however, varied widely in their composition, some being very low in fat, others deriving over 50 percent of their calories from saturated fat alone. Healthy, non-pregnant, non-lactating adults require essential fatty acids in infinitesimal amounts. Growing children, pregnant or lactating women, and adults who are recovering from injury or suffering a degenerative disease require greater amounts of these fatty acids, but acquire them best from animal products. The use of vegetable oils likely promotes heart disease despite lowering cholesterol. Saturated and monounsaturated fatty acids play essential roles in our bodies, but we can synthesize them from carbohydrate, an option on which many healthy groups have relied. Fats provide essential nutrients and aid in the absorption of nutrients from other foods. It is the overall nutrient density and nutrient bioavailability of the diet, however, and not the specific content of fat, that produces health.
Chris Masterjohn is creator and maintainer of Cholesterol-And-Health.Com, a web site dedicated to extolling the benefits of traditional, nutrient-dense, cholesterol-rich foods and to elucidating the many fascinating roles that cholesterol plays within the body. Cholesterol-And-Health.Com is home to his blog, The Daily Lipid. Chris is a frequent contributor to Wise Traditions, the quarterly journal of the Weston A. Price Foundation, is a perennial speaker at the annual Wise Traditions conference, and writes a second blog on the foundation’s web site, Mother Nature Obeyed. Chris is a doctoral candidate in Nutritional Sciences at the University of Connecticut. He has authored three peer-reviewed publications including a hypothesis on the molecular mechanism of vitamin D toxicity published in Medical Hypotheses, a letter to the editor published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology challenging the conclusions of a widely publicized study claiming to show adverse effects of eating coconut oil, and a letter to the editor published in The American Heart Journal arguing that drugs used to raise HDL-cholesterol should not be considered safe until their potential adverse effects on vitamin E metabolism have been studied. He has also recently authored a human study on the effects of vitamin E on sugar metabolism that has been accepted for publication in the Journal of Nutritional Biochemistry, and a review on nonalcoholic fatty liver disease accepted for publication in Nutrition Reviews. Chris plans on graduating with his doctorate in the summer.
