It was on Channel 5 tonight - Secrets of your Supermarket Food. I had to turn it off as they were saying fat was bad for you and you should watch the calories you eat. And we all know that they talk rubbish.Which tv prog..?
And how was it rated as "best"
Palm is mostly saturated fat, like coconut oil right? Red palm and coconut oils are in my diet, as long as they are cold pressed. Also cold pressed avocado, olive, linseed are okay in my book. It’s the highly refined stuff that’s bad.. imhoThroughout the years I have been told to eat unsaturated fats, such as Palm oils, Rapeseed and other forms of unsaturated fats including vegetable oils, are really bad for me. I can only have saturated fats. These are natural fats that don't make you fat.
I have no other conditions unless I have carbs and unsaturated fats.
One of the reasons for this is that these oils are not designed to help with your health.
And of course cause inflammation. Which is one of the reasons blood glucose levels go higher, then prediabetes and eventually Type two.
They say that certain oils help with cholesterol (adverts) but as usual, the thing they don't say is, with a dietary controlled lifestyle. It's in the small print.
So you can have these oils, you can only have a very small amount of food with it.
I'd rather go lchf, than have to resort to oils.
Just to say, most of us have never seen the process to get rid of these oils after use.
Why do we need to separate everything else from these oils and have a specialist company that is licensed to recycle them? It stinks and dries like a fat burger in the sewers.
I would review the reason we need these oils, we don't, but because of the growing number of people who won't eat animal products, this is a cheap alternative.
And keeps a lot of farmers and growers around the world happy.
Eating too much saturated fats in your diet can raise "bad" LDL cholesterol in your blood, which can increase the risk of heart disease and stroke. "Good" HDL cholesterol has a positive effect by taking cholesterol from parts of the body where there's too much of it to the liver, where it's disposed of. is that correct??Palm is mostly saturated fat, like coconut oil right?

I agree what you say about the fat but I definitely have to watch the calories. My 2 week holiday on the broads has proved that - still stayed low carb but lots of little low carb treats I don’t normally eat have left me a few pounds heavierIt was on Channel 5 tonight - Secrets of your Supermarket Food.

is that correct
I always thought Rapeseed oil was bad for us?
O a television programme it's just come out as the best for unsaturated fats!
Is this correct ... does anyone know

Ben (Bikman)& Ted (Naiman) 's Excellent Adventure
This was a deep dive which touches on the current low carb anti seed oil mania. Spoiler alert they don't rate processed seed oils but don't believe they drive metabolic dysfunction.
Yes and Ben and Ted agree with you! Ted thinks they are junky calories rather than being as toxic as fructose. Ben's agnostic as he stays in his insulin/glucagon lane. Interesting to see the differences between a clinician and research scientist.Definitely one to watch thanks..They may not drive metabolic dysfunction but they certainy won't help it recover either.
I still can't see any benefit over animal fats.

It’s not quite so simple.Eating too much saturated fats in your diet can raise "bad" LDL cholesterol in your blood, which can increase the risk of heart disease and stroke. "Good" HDL cholesterol has a positive effect by taking cholesterol from parts of the body where there's too much of it to the liver, where it's disposed of. is that correct??
That's great that you are doing it under doc's supervision, i know few people who tried following keto with heavy intake of saturated fat and worsening their lipids profileSo when I first started down the keto path, I put coconut oil, heavy coconut cream on everything lol. I told my doc about what I was doing, he said, yeah you’re cholesterol will probably be high. Every lipid panel he gave me was well into the normal range. So my weight loss stalled after about 30kg in. Since then I’ve been pulling on the fats lever and I’m dropping weight again.
I guess some people may respond differently, my diet is data driven, doc is happy about my numbers. If something changes, I’ll adjust my diet.

worsening their lipids profile

Most of us that have followed keto have had the reverse experience. Define worsening?That's great that you are doing it under doc's supervision, i know few people who tried following keto with heavy intake of saturated fat and worsening their lipids profile
