The brain is mostly fat.
The only “harmful” fats in the human diet are man-man fats. Also known as Trans-fats.
All fat that exists in nature is good for you and serves a biological purpose.
Sugar and refined carbs—not fat—are responsible for the epidemic of obesity and poor health in America.
Refined carbs play a role in Everything from Type 2 Diabetes to Cancer and Heart disease.
For decades, we’ve been sold a false idea that vegetable oil is healthier than natural saturated fats.
“Good” vegetable oils (such as soybean oil, corn oil, sunflower oil, safflower oil,) are harmful; they create inflammation and oxidize or make your cholesterol rancid, making it more likely to cause heart disease.
These oils are processed at high heats and are literally rancid, oxidized, and toxic to the human body.
So, what does the body do?
It creates cell membranes using these artificial fats!
In layman terms… It creates your cells out of something that doesn’t exist in nature and has never been a part of the human diet.
A study done at Harvard in 1993 demonstrated a strong link between partially hydrogenated oils and heart attack risk.
In layman’s terms – get your monounsaturated fats and polyunsaturated fats from whole foods such as meat, fish, avocados, olives, nuts, and seeds.
In layman’s terms – even if your caloric intake is identical, if you’re eating trans-fats, you will gain more body fat!
It simply cannot be overstated how damaging these trans-fats are to human beings!
I titled this episode “Oil: The Hidden Assassin” because hydrogenated oils are now hidden in just about every packaged food product in every grocery store in America.
Salad Dressings – Be particularly careful when buying dressings advertised as “Avocado Oil” or “Olive Oil.” Always check the ingredients! More often than not, the #1 ingredient will still be a hydrogenated oil, even though the marketing says otherwise!!
