[fast5] Re: Back to IF -- I think

I appreciate the info provided by Rick regarding his experimentations.

I had read the earlier Peskin work because I was interested with Omega 3 and it's benefits regarding dementia as i take care of my 80 plus year old parents. At my Mom's neurologist today, I asked him if he had any other ideas of non-prescription item which could help them, as the earlier recommendation of St. John's wort (anti-depressant) had been a great help for an inexpensive herbal product. He recommended that I give them a T of coconut oil every day and seemed to be very enlightened to recommend something beyond the the pricey alzheimer's drugs of Namenda and Exelon Patch and then gave me 5 weeks of Patch samples.

The Dr. said, "they can't make money off of coconut oil", which I took as stating the pricey Alzheimr's drugs probably weren't much more effective than the $8 /quart coconut oil I get at Kroger's.

After reading Peskin' warning about fish oil, I wonder where Rick is sourcing his Hemp oil, Pumpkin seed oil, as Omega 3 supplements?

I continue to be a big fan of fasting combined with low carb to keep insulin levels low as suggested by Gary Taubes.
A very good article:
