Mustard oil is as good and so is sesame n peanut oil , olive oil and canola oil are being marketed and consumed in our country as health trends and the tragedy is , most of the olive oil being imported is very inferior quality .........sangeetahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01091803798460651759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6201701766714528600.post-40442686255936593562010-12-06T15:06:11.666+04:002010-12-06T15:06:11.666+04:00Nice post,I love coconut oil in my cooking,as you ...Nice post,I love coconut oil in my cooking,as you have said,keeping a good balance of food and workout keeps us fit...Rakshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01031748298369592747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6201701766714528600.post-36777379041097149642010-11-27T00:26:59.906+04:002010-11-27T00:26:59.906+04:00Thought Provoking..Thought Provoking..Veggie Huthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10529639015593026497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6201701766714528600.post-32561389388968185752010-11-27T00:26:37.399+04:002010-11-27T00:26:37.399+04:00Very well written article..Very well written article..Veggie Huthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10529639015593026497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6201701766714528600.post-38476679744124105982010-11-24T10:29:20.761+04:002010-11-24T10:29:20.761+04:00great article, keep postinggreat article, keep postingKrishnavenihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06817167391954372759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6201701766714528600.post-78858453837352210582010-11-22T02:08:59.242+04:002010-11-22T02:08:59.242+04:00Dear Ms Chitchat - A very thought provoking writeu...Dear Ms Chitchat - A very thought provoking writeup..As always love reading them..I myself wonder about all these pertitent questions as well..I think we have made our lives way too complicated and are way too stressed as a result of it...Dolly Sharmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12988392619105626190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6201701766714528600.post-40025239258890692322010-11-19T05:26:26.770+04:002010-11-19T05:26:26.770+04:00useful article.useful article.Kanchana Radhakrishnanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05185580165563482144noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6201701766714528600.post-56827126981895138212010-11-15T12:16:52.700+04:002010-11-15T12:16:52.700+04:00very nice writeup dear.... what u said is absolute...very nice writeup dear.... what u said is absolutely true....Akilahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11873162230744613988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6201701766714528600.post-90521154912023378232010-11-13T22:25:26.095+04:002010-11-13T22:25:26.095+04:00This post is the need of the hour. well written.
...This post is the need of the hour. well written.<br /><br />coconut oil is the cooking medium in our home too. my mil and her siblings have all crossed 70+ and nobody suffers from hypertension/diabetes, but they don't eat outside food and still eat sundakkai, manathakkali, vepampoo etc. perhaps all these acts as an antidote. <br />whatever be the reason, today's children are hooked on to tv, computer and hence have no physical activity. Little wonder then a 6 year old child in our housing complex is on insulin injection for diabetes.Ashahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01853943313848326731noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6201701766714528600.post-20621893226724684732010-11-13T20:59:31.473+04:002010-11-13T20:59:31.473+04:00Nice write up, people are very lazy nowadays.Nice write up, people are very lazy nowadays.vidhashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15644113603928579325noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6201701766714528600.post-30127165907598895432010-11-13T04:39:13.021+04:002010-11-13T04:39:13.021+04:00Hi,
Reading your post brings back lot of memories,...Hi,<br />Reading your post brings back lot of memories, My H brought an article on coconut oil the other day from his office collegue, and how good it is, My parents never used coconut oil as we are basically from Karnataka and used Groundnut oil, I have always thought our great grand parents lived a very healthy life, eating the regular Idli Dosa etc., with generous serving of Ghee and loads of sweet. I do not believe in consuming health drinks, pills or diets would keep you in good health. Eating healthy food with limited quantities isn't going to harm your health with your everyday work and excercise now and then. I always avoid junk food, even if I make them I try not to consume anything too much, I have been maintaining my weight from past around 14 years after my twins were born. My Grandmother lived up to 104, she could see, hear and remember everything till her death, My dad's mom she lived up to 94 years with good health and would love her Ghee in her morsel of food!. I used to have Dasamoolarishtam too!, I loved the last part of your article in the purple, how true it is!, thanks for the post, it brought back loads of memoriesMyvegfarehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16560475178526401269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6201701766714528600.post-80731443637106622182010-11-12T08:54:47.358+04:002010-11-12T08:54:47.358+04:00Superb, well written article.Superb, well written article.Nisa Homeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07597315780151550297noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6201701766714528600.post-65164924752312983072010-11-11T21:20:02.418+04:002010-11-11T21:20:02.418+04:00very useful article and pertinent issues.

I don't trust in any lavish food, except my Indian food and simple but natural food. we can look pretty and young with the natural food than the processed health foods. Rasam rice at night with a little papad is better than everything for me:) Just walk for 1 hour , nothing is needed. we can take our regular ghee and coconut oil .

Now life span is increasing and currently it is around 70s in US and around 60s in India. Healthy diet and exercise is important.<br />However, if you see indian parents and in-laws want their daughters and daughter-in-law do manual work rather than working-out. Youngsters should do want doctor's say ignoring these kind of diversions and roadblocks. And girls shouldnt hesistate to join gym or run daily.mamtchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10283252497465455572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6201701766714528600.post-10371825784573053252010-11-11T17:05:37.490+04:002010-11-11T17:05:37.490+04:00I come from Udupi and my grandmother and mother, u...I come from Udupi and my grandmother and mother, used to cook everything with coconut oil, like your people did. Bother of them did not have any health problem. <br /><br />As you say, the fast food culture is spoiling our health system. In those days, 'eats' means, chips of banana or Jackfruit. Now, god knows from what flour they make these 'Lays' etc.<br /><br />Most of the parents have one or two children and they love to pamper them and get them whatever they ask for. The habit of buying snacks from shops were not so popular.<br /><br />My son also is dieting now!
