I'd keep the animal fats and avoid most of the vegetable fats.


When faced with medical advice to reduce saturated fat I might consider
the second opinion of my other doctor (Atkins) and put renewed care
into my low carbing. I do not want to advise that to someone on the
newsgroup not even someone I've corresponded with regularly for a
couple of years. Medical advice is not to be ignored except on your own
and based on your own studies.

Animal and
especially fish oils have more Omega 3s which you want, vegetable oils have
more Omega 6s which you don't want as much of.


I take it this means eating fin and shell meat preferentially over hoof
or feather meat. Expensive but tastey.

Fat will help with the
hunger, especially combined with protein. He's definitely on the right
track avoiding grains.


Right. In anwering the question of how to deal with the hunger my
answer is to low carb. Low carbing, in and of itself, usually
eliminates hunger.
