Health wise, yeah....understand that sugar and fat don't make you gain weight, too many calories do... you can eat whatever you want to lose weight... just understand that "whatever you want" is much different than "as much as you want

If you burn more calories than you take in, you will lose weight, doesnt matter if all you eat are coconut bon bons

But good for you :up:

Yeah take that stuff out of your life. It taste yummy but it is addictive and yucky for your health.

There are plenty of healthy organic sweet choices out there. It's normal for humans crave yummy nice food. Just find one that is healthy

Experiment and find one. Go to healthy orgainc food stores and ask what they have. Go to organic tea shops ask them. You will find a substitute fast that way. googling is good too.

Now, salt is the new enemy.

Why is salt bad for our health?


Salt puts up our blood pressure. Raised blood pressure (hypertension) is the major factor which causes strokes, heart failure and heart attacks, the leading causes of death and disability in the UK. There is also increasing evidence of a link between high salt intake and stomach cancer, osteoporosis, obesity, kidney stones, kidney disease and vascular dementia and water retention. Salt can also exacerbate the symptoms of asthma, Ménière's disease and diabetes. Click on our resources section to find our useful factsheets

Small amounts of salt are essential for our health. Adults need less than 1 gram per day and children need even less. As a nation we are all eating approximately 8.1g of salt per day, far more than we need and more than the recommended maximum of 6g per day, putting us at risk of all of these health problems. The good news is that reducing your salt intake can lower your blood pressure and the risk of disease. In fact right down to 3g per day, the lower the salt intake, the lower the blood pressure.

Salt: no great shakes for your health.

We have known for some time that too much is bad for us, but now researchers are linking increased salt consumption to the rise in autoimmune disease.

Someone should have told me never to take Canbuulo with sugar to work potluck. I have a great experience ad success with Bur saliid, Somali shaah, laxoox and so on. Remember all of them are loaded with sugar. Them whites loved like crazy...But one particular potluck i brought canbuulo with saliid macasaro with sugar of course....They keep asking me what the sugar is doing in there?????
:damn: :damn:
I guess we are way behind in cutting this white devil knowns as processed sugar. Raw sugar is OK. :up:

I remember bringing mixed kimis or sabaayad, ciir (cultured milk), and moos (bananas) into a potluck. Former co-workers couldn't stop laughing at me. :lol:
