Question:

What is your opinion on coconut oil and butter in diet?

— Mitch Miglis

Answer:

You know, um, I'm gonna, I'm gonna defer to, uh, Dr. Michael Gregor and, and others out there, you know, that have a, probably a, a more, more solid footing on, on the, uh, the medical, uh, interpreting the medical research and that sort of thing. Um, but I mean, otherwise, I mean, my general approach is, is moderation to everything. And, um, you know, probably the, you know, if, if there's one thing that I, I eat every day, it's beans, um, but I try to swap up the beans. I'm not eating just one variety, but when it comes to, you know, some thing in my diet, uh, it's really about moderation. But again, you know, in terms of, of what some of the, uh, the research might say, um, take a look at, um, uh, nutrition facts.org, you know, with, uh, Michael Gregor, Dr. Michael Gregor, uh, and others right in the plant-based space are gonna have, um, some, um, uh, more deeply informed opinions on that. But, uh, again, uh, for me, my diet moderation, eating it once in a while hasn't been a good concern for me.
