I am skeptical of Dr. Budwig's claim that cancer is caused by lack of flaxseed oil and cottage cheese. There are many toxic additives in cottage cheese, like carrageenan, guar gum, etc. Why does she recommend high-PUFA oils like flax, soybean, sunflower, and walnut oil? Those are all very high in omega-6. Even flaxseed oil has like 13% omega-6 and 53% omega-3. People will get overloaded with omega-3 and omega-6. Why not eat a safer oil, like coconut, macadamia, or olive?

Budwig suggests 1.5 oz (3 tbsp) of flaxseed oil and 4 oz of cottage cheese. She says it's important for the fat to be raw, but I doubt that any soybean oil, sunflower oil, or walnut oil is truly raw. Stone-pressed olive oil (like Bariani) should be as good as flaxseed oil, if not better. And unlike flaxseed oil, it probably won't suppress Mead Acid. |
