en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argan_oil
Culinary argan oil (argan food oil) is used for dipping bread, on couscous, salads and similar uses. Amlou, a thick brown paste with a consistency similar to peanut butter, is produced by grinding roasted almond and argan oil using stones, mixed with honey and is used locally as a bread dip.
Various claims about the beneficial effects on health due to the consumption of argan oil have been made. Researchers have concluded that daily consumption of argan oil is 'highly likely' to be one factor helping the prevention of various cancers, cardiovascular diseases and obesity.
The results of a nutritional intervention study, in which volunteers were given either argan oil or animal fats (butter) in their diet, were published in 2005. The results showed that regular dietary intake of argan oil led to reduced levels of harmful cholesterol and triglycerides in the blood, compared to a diet with regular intake of animal fats.Wiki

Shrimp Is High In Cholesterol :
Shrimp often gets a bad rap for its high cholesterol content.
A 3-ounce serving contains 166 mg of cholesterol. Thats almost 85% more than the amount of cholesterol in other types of seafood, such as tuna
Highland cattle or as they say in Scottish Gaelic, Bò Ghàidhealach and in Scots, the Heilan coo. They are a Scottish cattle breed that have long horns and long, wavy, woolly coats that are more commonly coloured red, ginger or black but they do come in other colours. Highlands are raised primarily for their meat.
They originated in the Highlands and Outer Hebrides islands of Scotland and were first mentioned in the 6th century AD. The first herd book described two distinct types of Highland cattle but, due to cross breeding between the two, only one type now exists and is registered. They have since been exported worldwide.
They are a hardy breed, having been bred to withstand the conditions in the Scottish Highlands. Their long hair gives the breed its ability to overwinter. Bulls can weigh up to 800 kilograms and cows can weigh up to 500 kilograms. Their milk generally has a very high butterfat content, and their meat, regarded as of the highest quality, is gaining mainstream acceptance as it is lower in cholesterol than other varieties of beef.
One of Australia’s favourite goodies is the vanilla slice, various forms of thick custard between two layers of flakey biscuit or pastry and some extras - perhaps layers of chocolate or different flavoured custards or icing. They are all there. Country towns in particular have local competitions at their shows either between different home baked contestants, different bakeries or even different towns. No doubt bad for the waistline, cholesterol and carbohydrate levels, it’s rather fun to ignore these problems and gorge oneself on one of these sweet and sticky treats. This bakery at Myrtleford in NE Victoria had the greatest range we have seen, well outside the dimensions of my wife’s phone photo. You will also note these are quite thick. When confronted by vanilla slices, just take time to establish your favourite and then buy the ones either side also.
The proverb "An apple a day keeps the doctor away.", addressing the health effects of the fruit, dates from the 19th century Wales. Research suggests that apples may reduce the risk of colon cancer, prostate cancer and lung cancer. Compared to many other fruits and vegetables, apples contain relatively low amounts of vitamin C, but are a rich source of other antioxidant compounds. The fiber content, while less than in most other fruits, helps regulate bowel movements and may thus reduce the risk of colon cancer. They may also help with heart disease, weight loss and controlling cholesterol as they do not have any cholesterol, have fiber, which reduces cholesterol by preventing reabsorption, and (like most fruits and vegetables) are bulky for their caloric content.
There is evidence that in vitro apples possess phenolic compounds which may be cancer-protective and demonstrate antioxidant activity. The predominant phenolic phytochemicals in apples are quercetin, epicatechin, and procyanidin B2.
Highland cattle are a Scottish cattle breed. They have long horns and long wavy coats that are coloured black, brindle, red, yellow, white, silver (looks white but with a black nose) or dun, and they are raised primarily for their meat.
They originated in the Highlands and Western Isles of Scotland and were first mentioned in the 6th century AD. The first herd book described two distinct types of Highland cattle but, due to crossbreeding between the two, only one type now exists and is registered. They have since been exported worldwide.
They are a hardy breed due to their native environment, the Highlands of Scotland. This results in long hair, giving the breed its ability to overwinter. Bulls can weigh up to 800 kilograms (1,800 pounds) and cows up to 500 kilograms (1,100 pounds). Their milk generally has a very high butterfat content, and their meat, regarded as of the highest quality, is gaining mainstream acceptance as it is lower in cholesterol than other varieties of beef.
This is one of a family of plants popularly known as broomrapes. Cistanche phelypaea is unable to produce its own chlorophyll and is totally dependent on the roots of its host plant for its nutrients. This desert species is also found in the Egyptian Sahara. Ingestion has been shown to have considerable medical benefits: lowering cholesterol, anti-ageing, repairing muscle damage.

Figs are a fantastic source of vitamin B6. B6 is responsible for producing mood-boosting serotonin, lowering cholesterol and preventing water retention, all characteristics that help balance the moods of a menstruating woman.
Also, hormonal forms of birth control (such as the pill or the patch) deplete vitamin B6, so those using this method of birth control should try to eat more foods that are rich in B6- like figs.
My one of favorite fruits:)
Thank you to have some fruits a day:)
Pleurotus eryngii (also known as king trumpet mushroom, French horn mushroom, king oyster mushroom, boletus of the steppes, trumpet royale) is an edible mushroom native to Mediterranean regions of Europe, the Middle East, and North Africa, but also grown in parts of Asia.
The King Trumpet mushroom has a firm and meaty texture, and a mild and elegant flavor. It is characterized by its thick stem, short gills, and tender flesh. King Trumpet is a tasty meat substitute and a good source of dietary fiber. Low in calories and cholesterol-free, King Trumpet is also a good source of antioxidants to help support a strong and healthy immune system. This mushroom variety has been proven to support healthy cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of fat accumulation in the liver.

Final day had limited attendance with the heat and humidity. Goetta is little know outside of Cincinnati. The German population in Over the Rhine combined animal scapes with oats to make gotta. Usually pork scrapes but could include beef. Gliers uses pin oats and is very low in cholesterol. Sorta like scrapple. In Germany goetta is resembles grutzwurst. The Goettafest is so popular it's become a two weekend event.
Fungi, as well as some bacteria and protozoans are able to degrade cellulose, by means of cellulase, a very special enzyme. Thus, fungi are very important to decay wood. Additionally, certain fungi, in particular "white rot" fungi, can degrade insecticides, herbicides, pentachlorophenol, creosote, coal tars, and heavy fuels and turn them into carbon dioxide, water, and basic elements. Medicinal fungi are those fungi which produce medically significant metabolites or can be induced to produce such metabolites using biotechnology. The range of medically active compounds that have been identified include antibiotics, anti-cancer drugs, cholesterol inhibitors, psychotropic drugs, immunosuppressants and even fungicides.
So, please respect them!

So earlier today I brought my egg and forks outside for natural lighting on my patio table. Between the wind knocking my egg down and the raindrops falling from the tree branches, I just couldn't seem to get it right. So brought my goodies inside and set it all up on a table in the living room and added some lamp lights. I still can't seem to get the white balance quite right, but I think it came out better.

Spotted this delightful Highland Coo whilst driving around the Strathaird Peninsula on the Isle of Skye, Scotland. And oh what a view they had, couldn't think of a better place for a little lie down. What I love about this breed is how docile they are. I grew up around cattle, so know their body language, and this guy was very friendly and was quite happy for me to walk to up him and give him a rub/scratch.

Not just any old meatballs, but heart attack inducing pork meatballs! Sure tastes good if you indulge rarely. This actually made for three individual meals yesterday.
For the beverage, I drank a glass of diet Mountain Dew, which contains brominated vegetable oil. All European countries and Japan have banned BVO.
According to several websites, BVO has nasty side effects if consumed in large quantities...
"Bromine is a central nervous system depressant, and can trigger a number of psychological symptoms such as acute paranoia and other psychotic symptoms. Bromine toxicity can also manifest as skin rashes, acne, loss of appetite, fatigue, and cardiac arrhythmias."

When I had my bloodwork done last fall as part of my preventative exam, one of my cholesterol numbers was high, so they made me come back in six months.
I have changed my diet and lost some weight, so hopefully the changes I have made are going to be good enough to keep me off blood pressure medication. I have been pretty stressed about it, but hopefully I will see some noticeable changes for the better.

Yes, I've been tagged by my friend Sophie
Here's what you have to do: List 10 things that your friends may or may not know about you, but that are true. Tag ten people and be sure to let them know they’ve been tagged (a quick message will do). Don’t forget to link back to the person who tagged you. Post a picture of you (or a part of your body) in your stream with the 10 facts and list your tagged people.
1. I am actually a highly-developed boxer from an ancient line
2. There is (justified?) rumor that I have pups in Copenhagen, Denmark.
3. Nowadays I close my evening meals with a fine choice of cheese, not to the benefit not my cholesterol, weight and lack of sleep.
4. I am having the most relaxed summer ever and actually starve for some excitement.
5.I enjoy the simple things in life; I adore sleeping between fresh sheets, black being my favorite. Still nothing beats hanging out of a car window with my mouth wide open...
6. I am an excellent cook (when I feel like it) but don't do pastry (clumsy paws!)
7. My sun is in Libra, my Ascendant is in Taurus, my Moon in Cancer and my Venus in Scorpio (hence the pups?)
8. I am getting more and more diplo-matic as I grow older, you only have to be precise on what you can give to and get from people. It simplifies a lot.
9. My main target in life is to get best of both worlds; long hot summers in Greece and short but intense cold winters in Belgium, the latter also being more dog-friendly...
10. I can remember what life was like before computers, not sure which life I'ld prefer, but it sure felt a lot more care-free.
