Albacore with Fried Sage, Oregano and Garlic

Trader Joe's frozen fish - the trick to get a good texture is to use several paper towels to press out moisture after thawing and just before cooking.  I love fresh herbs, this time sage and oregano.  I cooked this in a mixture of coconut and olive oils, about 2/3 ratio.

Spicy curry fish with greens and garlic

Sometimes all you need to make fish and greens exciting again is a new spice blend.  I got some spicy curry from a Pakistani stall in the Nuovo Mercato Esquilino.  The fish is a snapper, I think.  The greens are lambs' lettuce or purslane.  They are the only vegetable that has any significant amount of omega-3 fats, so this meal packs a very healthy punch.  I've seen this kind of greens at Trader Joe's.

You Need Fat to Digest Your Food

I had no idea that the right fats played such an important role in digestion.

Women and Healthy Fats

Many of my new clients are surprised at how much fat I encourage them to eat, of course at the same time urging them to reduce refined carbohydrates. There are several really good reasons why I recommend plenty of healthy fats in our meal workouts. One is that the right fats help you produce the right hormones, testosterone in particular. Women have small amounts of testosterone in their bodies and among other things, it helps regulate sex drive and muscle mass.
