You might be very familiar with the cholesterol equals heart attack school of thought. But that has long been debunked and there is no correlation between cholesterol and heart disease. The real culprits are oxidative stress and inflammation.
Unless you are are chicken or a rabbit, saturated fat is okay. We have been taught for so long to fear it that we have even abandoned oil itself and opted for the non stick cooking liner. But fear no more and know which oils are good or evil.
Ghee, an animal fat, is used for ayurvedic cooking. Rich in vitamins A, K2, and D, it also contains conjugated linoleic acid that protects us against diabetes, heart disease, and cancer. If you are sensitive to dairy products, this might be your best friend because the milk solids in ghee have already been removed, depending on how sensitive you are.
Say yes to butter again as it provides the cholesterol needed for our brain to work well and to protect against inflammation. Lack of cholesterol can cause memory loss and other problems with the brain. Organic raw grassfed butter is best, and is recommended to be heated in low temperature as it has a smoke point of 325 to 375 degrees.
Virgin, raw, or unrefined coconut fat does not only give your grubs a wonderful flavor, but it is also very healthy. It helps in weight loss, enhances your skin, and aid cardiovascular health. It is also known to aid in repairing your metabolism, and has a smoke point of 280 to 365 degrees.
The renowned olive oil will always be the classic good girl of fats. Not only does it have anti inflammatory substances, but it is also a great source of antioxidants and keeps the heart happy. The problem is that you have to examine if your olive oil is one hundred percent pure, as there are a lot of faux labels claiming such but they have actually been combined with vegetable fats. Make sure you get your olive fix from trustworthy markets.
There is controversy surrounding the destruction of rainforests due to palm fat plantations, but palm oils are great for your health. Make sure that your sources of palm butter are sustainable so you do not support deforestation. Avocado fats are also beneficial if they are used to the minimum.
Surprise, surprise, but vegetable, corn, and soybean fats are the culprits in health issues. Ninety four percent of them are genetically modified, but even if they are non GMO, more than half of its content is omega 6, which is the leading cause of inflammation and further health issues. They are also concentrated in phytic adcid and trypsin inhibitors, which can cause a disturbance in normal hormone levels.
Grapeseed oil is another shocker when it comes to bad fats. The supposed benefits of grapeseed based on the cholesterol myth, so expect it to be unhealthy instead of the proclaimed opposite. It has seventy percent omega 6 fatty acids and can lead to autoimmune illnesses, not just heart disease and cancer. Canola and rapeseed should also be avoided as it is genetically modified and are prone to oxidation when heated, and can be carcinogenic.
