Virginia -
I agree with you. I have cut out all hydrogenated fats - but I think - like you - that allthough butter is a fat - and a animal fat - it is probably the best choice if one needs to use fat - as in certain recipes you mentioned.
I also can do quite well with a small amount of meat - of the leanest I can find - and I do think it is necessary..I'm talking fish, chicken and very rarely beef - none of it processed and always cooked correctly...for me 4 to 8 ounces per week seems fine.
Most Americans eat 4 to 8 ounces of meat PER MEAL - no wonder we are riddled with cancer...
and like you - I will crave if I feel deprived....mostly chocolate
I can't think that any food in moderation is a bad thing - well maybe bacon...perhaps I'm wrong

I have made huge changes in my diet over the last 2 years. I resist
giving up butter because I have worked so hard on the recipes that I
have, that I just don't want to go through it again unless it's
really neccessary. I chose to keep butter in my diet originally
under the assuption that it a natural oil that our bodies are used
to, as opposed to hydrogenated. I can purchase natural, organic,
local unpolluted butter that seems like a good choice. You just
can't cook everything with olive oil. Banana bread and pie crust for
example. Cooking without butter means spending months reworking
recipes using coconut oil. If that's what I have to do, so be it.
But I want to understand the science behind the idea before I start
implementing it.
I also haven't given up eating meats entirely because I just feel
like I am stronger and healthier with a little meat than strictly
vegetarian. When I eat a vegetarian meal, I pace around the kitchen
craving more carbohydrates, like cake. It makes me want sweets. But
if I eat a few ounces of meat, I am fine.
Not all diets fit all people, and I am trying very hard to figure
out the perfect diet foe me.

Virginia -
why do you want to play games with your health?
If one eats a lot of animal fat the Budwig mix will not even
manage that, besides of a manifested sickness.
I avoid butter and have also cut milk as a thinner by changing
the mixing procedure:
Put 100 g low fat quark/cottage cheese in a cup
Grind 3 tablespoons flaxseed, add it
Add enough water to stir it soft and creamy (I use a table-knife)
Then add turmeric, cayenne, ginger
Add 3 tablespoons flax oil
Stir it until no oil is visible anymore
Add something for the taste (agave pulp,berries, hashed apple,
paprika sauce)
Stir again
Ready
Regards

Wilhelm,
Does Dr. Budwig discuss just how closely the diet needs to be
followed after we are declared "cancer free"? In the Diet book,
she
admits that she allows a little milk, and says butter should be
avoided but doesn't declare it forbidden. She's a bit vague. I'm
wondering if you've seen any other comments that might help.
Thanks,
Virginia
