EidahParticipantHi again and thanks in advanceIs lamb a good source of fat? I read in this forum that chicken is not good. Is that true or did I miss read. I don't remember which thread. Also What if you live in a country where there is no MCT oil and quality coconut oil? What are the alternatives to be on this diet?

Melvin McLainParticipantNot 100% sure on the lamb, but I'd guess it's good. I don't think Kiefer likes chicken as the main protein/fat source, but it's ok to have some for variety.MCT and coconut oil are not required, just preferred (I don't use either). You can use heavy cream in your coffee or tea, and butter or bacon (and/or the drippings) on just about anything.Some of us have more to $pend on CNS than others. I'm in the latter category. 🙂

Richard SchmittModeratorLamb is good along with chicken, just have fats with your ULC meals. Pairing fats with protein is essential. Butter, animal fats, some olive oil is okay. You could order some online too.

cloudybrainParticipantAh, my favorite topic.Lamb is definitely amazing. I have this butcher near my house that actually gives me fats from lamb.. and I sometimes liquefy it to make broths for soups.Or you can get ground beef with higher % fats.. and when you cook it, make sure you save the tallow that melts off of it. Put it in a jar, and you can use it to cook eggs, or again.. broth.MCT and coconut oil does make the diet easier.. but if you're out in farm country.. it's almost the equivalent because you have better sources of getting animal meats.. hence.. animal fats.btw.. chicken does have a good quantity of fats. When you cook chicken, the saturated fats seep out of the meat and is trapped under the skin. The fats doesn't go back into the meat, and it doesn't escape the skin.. so the skin itself is loaded with saturated fats.

+1There are better sources of fat than chicken, but I wouldn't say it's bad. I eat chicken wings and rotisserie chickens fairly often.

EidahParticipantThank you very much everyone. So if I put coconut oil or butter on the chicken after I cook it, would that solve the issue?

You would be better off just eating the butter/coconut oil directly. It would be too hard to tell how much fat you are actually getting if you just put it on the chicken.
