Nice, two most common seed oils. Canola (rapeseed) and Vegetable (soybean) are probably the two worst oils you can consume.
You'll notice almost every food in the supermarket contains either high glycemic carbohydrates or high amounts of seed oils, and often both.
YEP. Seed oils cause heart disease. The lie that saturated animal fats and cholesterol caused heart disease was started by Ancel Keys in the late 1950s in an effort to explain why President Eisenhower had two heart attacks while president.
Proctor and Gamble, the makers of Crisco oil and shortening (Crystalized Cotton Seed Oil = Crisco) funded studies by Keys to provide the evidence. Any evidence he found to the contrary was never published. After he died his son found all the studies that showed that saturated animal fat had little impact on heart disease. Around the same time (early 60s), the American Heart Association won a radio contest and was awarded a million dollars by Proctor and Gamble, and the American Heart Association began its recommendation to stop using animal fat for cooking and switch to vegetable oils, i.e. Crisco, Soy bean, Corn. Canola oil wasn't edible until the 80's after the GMO process removed the immediate risk of consuming it. Heart disease in the US can be tracked with the increased consumption of seed oils and the decrease in the use of animal fats.
The recommended food pyramid along with the recommendations of the American Heart Association have been paid for by the seed oil companies who make billions of dollars causing all kinds of diseases from auto immune disorders to heart disease. Stop eating seed oils and high fructose corn syrup and you will be much healthier. Keep your added sugar intake to 25gms or less per day to avoid metabolic syndrome and diabetes.
Unfortunately, the medical training provided to Drs. simply reinforces the lie that began with Ancel Keys, and is perpetuated by big Pharma who also makes billions of dollars by trying to treat heart disease with drugs like Statins, which are totally unnecessary if people would only change their diets.
I learned this all after having suffered 2 heart attacks, and after following all the Drs. advice on how to live healthy.
Is lard good for deep frying?
If it’s really lard yes. Crisco isn’t lard. My grandma used it since I was a child. I heard her and others say it’s lard. It’s not! I’m not sure if it ever was. Also check out Tallow, fat from cows. I’ve seen duck fat but that’s more money than I want to spend.
My wife buys cheap bits of skin from the local free range chicken farm and renders the fat out of it. She gets cheap chicken fat for cooking, I get cheap, high protein skin as a snack.
