I know "Peat says"
And the sticky says
Which means Peat blesses coconut oil, butter, lamb fat (and beef tallow too?), and macadamia oil+olive oil in moderation.
So directly what I'm asking is: Are coconut oil, butter and beef+lamb fat all safe?
Also it seems Peat doesn't like palm or avocado oil. Is this true?
Coconut and olive oil are the only vegetable oils that are really safe, but butter and lamb fat, which are highly saturated, are generally very safe (except when the animals have been poisoned). Coconut oil is unique in its ability to prevent weight-gain or cure obesity, by stimulating metabolism. It is quickly metabolized, and functions in some ways as an antioxidant. Olive oil, though it is somewhat fattening, is less fattening than corn or soy oil, and contains an
antioxidant which makes it protective against heart disease and cancer.
And the sticky says
Best sources are coconut oil and butter; olive oil and macadamia nut oil sparingly. He is a big fan of (refined) coconut oil to stimulate the metabolism. Among nuts and nut oils, macadamia is probably the safest. See the Omega-6 list below for more info.
