Taking a healthy fish and drowning it in deep-frying seed oils is a nutritional tragedy.
Fish is prized because it contains high-quality protein and Omega-3 fatty acids,
Omega-3 fatty acids are:
• EPA: Eicosapentaenoic Acid
• DPA: Docosapentaenoic Acid
• DHA: Docosahexaenoic Acid
They support the brain, heart, and blood vessels, and help regulate inflammation.
While growing up, we were told that Luos were brainy, with healthy eyes, because they ate fish from Lake Victoria. This is because of Omega-3 in fresh fish.
So, what happens when the fish is submerged in a pot of hot industrial seed oil?
The fish absorbs the seed oil, which is full of Omega 6 (Linoleic Acid and Gamma-Linoleic Acid).
The higher the temperature and the longer the frying process, the more the nutritional advantage begins to diminish.
The rancid, heat-unstable Omega-6 displaces Omega-3 leaving the fish empty.
The result is a fish that has lost part of what made it special in the first place.
That is why grilled fish, smoked fish, boiled fish, sun-dried fish, or fish cooked gently in a stew often preserve more of its natural nutritional value than deep-fried fish.
Babies, children and teenagers require plenty of Omega-3 from fish and fish broths.
Today, many people consume seed oils through chips, snacks, fast foods, biscuits, pastries, fried foods, and restaurant meals, and are therefore deficient in Omega-3
Food is not just about taste.
It is about what remains after digestion.
A fish that swims in seed oil is no longer the same fish that came out of the lake.
Protect the nutrients by cooking wisely and correctly.

BONE MARROW is nutrient-dense.
The modern food industry has convinced people that health comes from brightly colored packages, protein bars, fortified cereals, and supplements.
When hunters made a kill, the marrow was never discarded. It was considered a valuable source of nourishment.
The deepest nutrition is often hidden inside the animal.
Bone marrow contains:
• Healthy fats.
• Collagen-building nutrients.
• Amino acids.
• Fat-soluble vitamins.
• Trace minerals that support recovery, immunity, hormone production, and overall vitality.
For men engaged in hard physical work, intense training, or recovery from illness, bone marrow provides dense ketogenic calories and nutrients in a highly absorbable form.
People nowadays spend thousands searching for energy while eating foods that leave them hungry, inflamed, and exhausted.
Then they wonder why their bodies are breaking down.
If you value your nutrition, eat nutrient-dense traditional foods.

Cow foot soup, also known as KIGERE or MLOKONI, is one of the most nutritious traditional broths.
Before collagen powders were sold in fancy containers, our grandparents were drinking KIGERE.
When most people see the hoof, they walk away!
The tendons, cartilage, ligaments, skin, and connective tissues in the cow's foot are rich in collagen, gelatin and calcium.
When cooked, these compounds dissolve into the soup, creating a thick, nourishing broth.
Cow hoof soup is traditionally given to recovering patients, postpartum mothers, babies and the elderly.
Collagen and gelatin provide amino acids that support the repair of joints, tendons, ligaments, cartilage, skin, and connective tissues throughout the body.
For men whose knees crack when climbing stairs, whose backs ache after a long day, or whose recovery after exercise takes longer, then kigere is the traditional broth for healing and recovery.

Discipline is paramount.
Don't tolerate indiscipline.
Don't accommodate people who lack discipline. They will drag your life into a pit.
If someone lacks discipline, he is also disrespectful, not just to himself, but to you.
I must say my girlfriend has been a breath of fresh air in my life. In the past I was unlucky with love which made me hesitant to commit to this, but everyday she shows me I made the right decision. Life has felt as beautiful as her smile since we met. Never been happier.
