Say No to GMO!
I don’t understand this attitude in people either regarding good carbs. Sometimes I wish there were two words to distinquish carbs – good beans & veggies as opposed to white flour and sugar.
As long as you are using organic soy beans, they are not GMO.
Dairy cream is NEVER a healthy fat.
Martha and Rich are correct, we need fat… as long as it’s the good ones like coconut, avocado, and organic grass fed dairy & meat. The rest may compromise your health eventually. I also agree about staying away from soy, I had reoccurring thyroid goiters until I eliminated soy from my diet. And I’ve also stopped consuming most grains / flour products, they’re as bad as eating white sugar
