Hi Jeff,
I have been reading the work of Drs. Fuhrman and Esselstyn, both of which
forbid added oil. On the topic of salad dressing, Dr. Fuhrman recommends
making dressing from nut butters to assist in the absorption of fat-soluble
vitamins in the greens. Dr. Esselstyn does not seem to share this concern
and pretty much forbids nuts. I was thinking that if a food contains nutrients,
they should be able to be absorbed without help from other foods. What do
you think?
