[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I find many healthy food eaters to be preachy. I believe it's because they think that hey are right. [/quote]

IA with this.  My SIL is a cardiologist.  Our other SIL asked her to review her and her families bloodwork results because she couldn't understand why all of their LDL cholesterol was off the charts.  SIL #2 was convinced errors had been made because they are vegetarians and eat vegan 2 days/week.  SIL #1 told her it's possible to make an error with one person, but not 5.  She started going over what they ate and found the culprit: coconut oil.  SIL #2 used it for all her cooking and baking, but she 100% refused to believe SIL #1 that that was the cause.  She just kept going on and on about how much healthier coconut oil was for you vs the other oils to a freakin' cardiologist!  Someone who spend a dozen or so years specializing in the heart and all things cardiac.  She just kept pulling up random internet articles (not scientific at all) on the benefits of coconut oil to refute test results in hand and an expert to her face.  It was just amazing.

I'd told SIL #2 this ages ago because after my dad's bypass surgery, the #1 food item listed on the paper that he can never ever have for the rest of his life is coconut in all forms.        [/quote]
