In the Budwig diet, can FSO be substituted for olive oil in salad dressings?

I am fairly certain that the FDA would not allow this on US soil as it would impact big pharma negatively. Dr. Navarro lives in the US, but the tests are still done in PI to avoid FDA scrutiny I expect. I also would imagine that they are pretty guarded of the formula. I also emailed them a while back and got no reply.

Hello, Everyone. This is a long-shot, but does anyone have any info on the status of the Navarro Clinic? Their test has been unavailable since 4/2022 due to supply chain issues. While those issues may still exist for them, I also seem to recall some other issues in the Phillipines since then.?
Thank you for any info anyone can provide. I'm just hoping they are able to "go live" again.

A 24 ounce cottage cheese container works perfectly.

The oil and cottage cheese have to be whipped together to be mixed at the molecular level. I don't think it is possible to do that with a spoon. Curious as to why not use a blender?

It is not possible to blend the cottage cheese and oil properly without a blender. ?I hade tried while on vacation. ?The only thing that works to blend by hand is Greek yogurt. ?It easily blends and has the proper protein ratio: that is what I use on vacation¡but always cottage cheese with an immersion when at home ?

Yes Rod, a hand blender may work.? Sorry, I was picturing a stand mixer.

I translated the below from her German work, Johanna Budwig, Photoelements (Resch Verlag. Innsbruck, 1979) p. 160-161.
"The correct preparation of the quark & linseed oil mixture is dependent on this combination. For one person, use 100 grams of quark, plus 40 grams of linseed [flax] oil and 25 grams of milk. These proportions are stirred well, so that oil is no longer visible. This is achieved most quickly and effortlessly with one device like the Starmix, though manual cream rackets are suitable."
What I think she means by a "manual cream rackets" is either one of those rotary egg beaters or a simple balloon whisk. A starmix is similar to our present-day table top electric blender.

Re: Lactose-free cottage cheese
We all know how Dr B felt about anything that was processed. She always claimed that she never had a patient who couldn't process the quark, even those with dairy issues. I would think that as long as the protein content is sufficient it should be okay, but that is an opinion.
All the best, Rod in MN/USA

Apparently fermenting dairy - as in making yogurt or kefir - will also significantly reduce lactose. So I'd say it looks promising!!

Re: Vitamin D supplementation in winter
I agree with Rod. Certain vitamins may be helpful. Vitamin D is one of them. Buy a high-quality brand. K2 is a vitamin that helps move calcium into your bones as well as helping with D. Taking a few supplements that you believe you need can be helpful as long as they are well made.
Kind regards,
Sandra

Re: Vitamin D supplementation in winter
I also take vitamin D. 10k IU a day until my blood level was up to 70 as per the bill Henderson book. 5k IU after to maintain levels. I live in upstate NY.?

Absolutely supplement with vitamin D. I do all year 'round as I have always had a hard time finding time to sunbathe. Even if sunbathing, I would supplement vitamid D. I took 10k - 15k IU while actively on the protocol and still take 5k IU every morning. One should also supplement with k2 as it helps the body with the D. I also take zinc every day at the same time.
