Reactions to quote's of Wissle:

well I am sure you know that some of these saturated fats come in lots of non vegan raw whole foods.
---
* No! I don't agree. There are enough superior vegan saturated fats
to let forget the animal saturated fats

In regard to EFA's I have found we need about 4% of our diet as balanced EFA's. To be honest, other then flax seeds I am not aware of any good whole food vegan sources. am not sure what this does to the fat content, ie it oxidizes it all or not?)

* What are your thoughts/objections about hempseed, and chiaseed?
---


Vandy--I agree I prefer the whole food myself as well, but as coconut oil is a fermented food, it is still raw and alive. I was cracking open a coconut a day in the summer, but now the store just doesnt have enough for me! :P
--
* the same for red palm oil: not available as a whole food

* Wissle, what do you think: should we eat every different fat directly, in order to avoid the energyloss of transforming one fat in to another, or not?
