So basically that means cutting out almost all industrial oils (which means cutting out pretty much all processed food, even the low-carb ones). It also means trying to obtain grass fed meat as much as possible and minimize grain fed meat (and that means grain-fed chicken too).
A good way to improve your health is to cut out the 3 horses of the "diseases of civilization” apocalypse. Gluten (especially wheat), sugar (especially HFCS), and omega-6 industrial oils.
And last but not least, Vitamin D and Magnesium. But I'll let Hutchinson do that bit, he's our resident expert.
