Healthy Oils and Fats

Including Healthy Oils will improve your health

Despite what you may have heard, fat isn’t a dirty word. Among its functions are aiding cell growth, protecting your organs, and playing a role in nutrient absorption. Fats are an essential part of your diet. People use oils almost daily for cooking and for drizzling over salads. Even healthier oils, such as avocado and olive oil, are still fats, do remember to keep your fat intake between 25-35% of your total daily calories.

 Restrictive diets often cuts fats which leads adding sugar to compensate for the loss in taste — this isn’t exactly a healthy alternative. Think about everything you eat and aim for a nutritionally balanced mix that includes moderate amounts of healthy fats. 

Extra Virgin Olive Oil

EVOO - is truly the gold standard of high quality cooking oils. Regular olive oil is refined and stripped of important nutrients and antioxidants. 

The natural extraction process used to produce Extra Virgin Olive Oil ensures it retains all the nutrients and antioxidants from the olive fruit.

Coconut Oil

Coconut oil is a healthy choice because it is high in natural saturated fats. Saturated fats in coconuts work in a differently than those found in animal-derived foods like butter, cream, cheese, and meat. Coconut Oil increases the HDL in the body and changes the ratio of HDL to LDL. The saturated fat in coconut oil thus helps promote heart health and lower the risk of heart disease.

Avocado Oil

Avocado oil is a heart-healthy oil. Avocado oil is packed full of the same antioxidants and healthy fats that make avocados a health-food superstar. People don't often realize that avocados help increase nutrient absorption: Vitamins A, D, E, and K are fat-soluble.  Without fatty acids from something like avocado oil, your body isn't able to absorb and utilize nutrients in your body.

Flax Seed Oil

Sesame Seed Oil

Flax Seed Oil

Flaxseed oil is made from ground and pressed flax seeds. It is known for its many health benefits, including lowering inflammation, preventing heart disease, and reducing cancer risk. Flaxseed oil is loaded with heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids.  Flaxseed oil may be a good solution to help supplement your diet with the omega-3 fatty acids you need.

Sesame Seed Oil

Sesame oil is made from raw or toasted sesame seeds. The seeds themselves are high in protein and B-vitamins, but sesame oil doesn’t contain the protein or many of the essential vitamins and minerals. It does, however, keep the fatty acids and antioxidants, including vitamin E and phytosterols. The powerful health benefits of sesame oil may include its ability to improve skin and hair health, help in bone growth, maintain good oral health, and reduce the risk of cardiovascular ailments.

Butter

Butter is a dairy product containing a large amount of edible fat. Butter is not only a natural source of Vitamins A, D, K and E, but it’s the best source. The presence of carotene in natural butter is a source of important nutrition for human beings, it promotes cell regrowth and repair; protecting the body from various infections. Contrary to popular belief, butter does not make you fat.  The fatty acids in butter don’t even need to be broken down by our gut.  They’re absorbed directly from the small intestine into the liver and converted into quick energy.

Tallow

Tallow is a rendered form of beef or mutton fat, it is both nutrient and energy-dense. For centuries, tallow (or beef fat) was considered a healthy and delicious fat for frying, baking and more. Many saved thier fat in a container under the sink for future use. It’s rich in vitamins A, D, E, and K, which are excellent for your skin.

Lard

Lard is the by-product of rendered pork fat, it is used in baking, cooking and even in candle making.  Lard is a perfect combination of the three types of fats: monounsaturated fat, saturated and polyunsaturated. Lard contains healthy Cholesterol. Cholesterol helps reduce inflammation and produce hormones that relay messages to the pituitary gland and regulate hormones in your body.

If you like cooking with oils in particular, that’s a smart move. Fat is an essential nutrient, and liquid fats like oils are an excellent source. Each day, women ages 31 and older should aim for 5 teaspoons of oil, and men in the same age group should target 6 tsp per day, just be sure you’re choosing the right healthy fats. Consuming full-fat foods may offer benefits over their reduced-fat or fat-free counterparts. They are usually less processed and lower in sugar and carbs.
