Health Benefits Of Healthy Fats Like Butter

“Copied this from an email newsletter I received from Dr. Sears.” Admin

In my personal library, one of my most prized possessions is a 125-year-old edition of the famous White House Cook Book. This 19th-century bestseller was once found in thousands of kitchens across America.

My copy was a gift from an old friend who was clearing out a historic mansion.

I love trying out new healthy, full-fat recipes that I find in this cookbook.

It’s packed with menus, recipes, and food preparation instructions – as well as fascinating household hints, like dinner table etiquette, carving instructions, and the best way to entertain over a thousand guests!

But it’s the foods and ingredients that really strike you…

It features the kind of food I recommend all the time.

Real foods that free you from today’s inflammation-triggering diet – and the diseases that spring from it.

One phrase used regularly in the recipes section always jumps out at me: “Add butter the size of an egg.”

Of course, they were right on target.

You see, these were the days before giant agricultural entities took control of our food supply… Before heart disease and diabetes exploded into the inflammatory killers they are today.

And it was long before modern medicine and groups like the American Heart Association instilled into people a fear of natural animal fats like lard, butter, and beef tallow.

Scientists are finally beginning to understand the enormous mistake they made when they linked animal fats to heart disease.

Researchers have now discovered that the opposite is true.

Dozens of peer-reviewed studies reveal that C15:0 is just as important as omega-3.¹ And just like the omega fats, your body can’t readily make C15:0.

You need to source it from your diet. And one of the best sources is grass-fed butter.

While researchers have known for several years that higher dietary intakes of C15:0 can help reduce the risk of type 2 diabetes and heart disease, a game-changing clinical trial proves that pure C15:0 goes even further…

In the randomized, double-blind study, participants were divided into three groups.²

The first group was placed on a caloric-restricted diet. The second group went on a caloric-restricted diet that followed an Asian-adapted Mediterranean-style diet. The third group followed the same diet but added C15:0.

After three months, those who were given C15:0 had the greatest results, including:

Greater weight loss
Decreased body fat, including less visceral fat
Lower insulin and glucose levels
Reduced triglycerides
Less liver fat
Healthier gut microbiome
Better blood pressure

How The Diet Dictocrats Got It All Wrong

This groundbreaking discovery means that when you eat low-fat versions of butter, milk, cheese, and yogurts – as the diet dictocrats have been advising for more than half a century – you’re missing out on this key fatty acid that strengthens and protects the outer part of a cell.

You see, C15:0 works by protecting your cells against the inflammatory damage that’s at the root of dozens of modern disorders.

This includes chronic conditions like heart disease… diabetes… autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis… gastrointestinal disorders like inflammatory bowel disease, Crohn’s disease, and ulcerative colitis… and lung diseases like COPD and asthma.³

C15:0 has also been found to be essential for your brain, allowing you to age smarter. And some peer-reviewed studies have discovered that people with higher C15:0 levels live longer.⁴

This confirms the anti-aging power of C15:0, which isn’t surprising because the same study reveals that this essential fatty acid protects and boosts your mitochondria, the microscopic energy powerhouses that are found in each one of your cells.

Researchers have known for years that your mitochondria hold the secret to preventing – and in some cases reversing – dozens of chronic conditions that strike us from middle age onwards.⁵

C15:0 isn’t only found in full-fat dairy products.

Other sources include pastured, grass-fed beef… pork fat… flaxseed oil… dark chocolate with 70% cacao… quail eggs… rainbow trout… salmon… and coconut oil.
