Everyone is very well acquainted with the diet heart hypothesis, and if centuries before people have believed our planet is flat only to realize it is actually round, it is now time to bust that myth. Cholesterol has no correlation in causing heart disease. In fact, cholesterol is needed in brain functioning and using cholesterol reducing drugs can severely harm your brain and cause memory loss.

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.

The animal fat ghee is rich in fat soluble vitamins such as A, D, and K2, and is a common ingredient in ayurvedic cuisine. Its milk solids are removed, so it can be safe for people who have dairy sensitivities. For that same reason, it can be used at higher temperature and has a smoke point of 425 to 480 degrees. It can also protect your body against heart disease, diabetes, and cancer as it has CLA or conjugated linoleic acid.

Grassfed butter is also good for you. We need cholesterol in our diet to have properly functioning body. Your best options would be organic raw grassfed butter, and has a smoke point between 325 to 375 degrees, which means it is best used in low temperature.

Coconut fat is great whether it is unrefined, raw, or virgin. For weight conscious people, coconut oil does not only help with your heart but it also aids in weight loss. If you are doubtful, know that it contains substances that fix a messed up metabolism.

Pure olive oil is also a haven of anti inflammatory ingredients and antioxidants. It has a smoke range between 320 to 350 degrees, which is ideal for cold dishes or low heat cooking. Just make sure that your bottle of olive goodness is legit, as there are many fake labels screaming one hundred percent pure olive when it has actually been mixed with cheap vegetable oils. Get them from trustworthy sellers.

Another wonderful addition is palm fats, although deforestation has been a problem due to palm oil plantations, so give it a no if you are an environmentalist or buy sustainably sourced ones. Avocado fat can be beneficial if consumed just sparingly. And if there are healthy fats, there are also nasty ones.

Contrary to the popular notion, soybean and vegetable oils are actually harmful. Because they contain more than fifty percent of omega 6, it can cause inflammation and health problems. They are also high in trypsin inhibitors and phytic acid, blocking the absorption of minerals, proteins, and vitamins our body needs. Furthermore, it can cause hormonal imbalance and increase the risk of cancer.

Canola and grapeseed fats must be avoided. With seventy percent level of omega 6, they lead to inflammation, autoimmune disorders, and of course, coronary heart disease. Most of them are also genetically modified and have higher oxidation levels when they are heated, and that means a higher risk of cancer.
