Could be. I've still got oily skin. Still need to lose weight though.

Thanks for the ping, interesting thread. Over the last few months, I've discovered the wonders of coconut oil, but I don't know much about palm oil. How do those tocotrienols hold up under heat?

Not sure yet, am still investigating. Coconut oil is mighty fine. I use it and butter oil (ghee) an awful lot.

I've heard the term "ghee" but don't know what it is. Butter oil? What does that mean? How is it different than butter?

I would guess that baking flax would destroy the omega-3's. I suggest fresh ground flax seed every morning. It's inexpensive and you can grind it in a table top coffee grinder.

The milk solids are removed (centrifuge??) so it's just the pure butterfat. Looks oily and almost translucent compared to standard butter. Doesn't scorch when you cook with it. Otherwise, it smells and tastes just like butter.

To be honest most vitamines wind up just being expensive urine.I don't believe %99 of what I hear about all these natural cures . Yea, maybe if you started as a child and lived an entire lifetime taking certain grains or herbs or whatever . Then it could possibly help . Thinking that at say 55 you're going to start taking a vitamine or herb or tonic or foodstuff and it's going to ward off cancer is not true. It's a BIG business with bIG hype..No different than the drug business.%99 of all problems are genetic in my opinion anyway.

Based on personal experience, I couldn't disagree more. But it's a free country and you're entitled to your opinion. Take care.

We feed it to performance horses.
It cuts down on bulky grain and it's deleterious effects without a loss of energy.

'Ghee' is clarified butter (major ingredient in Indian cooking): http://www.ayurbalance.com/explore_foodghee.htm

I'm wondering if they do this to keep it from going bad as fast in the subtropics.
