Also: For heaven's sake, cut seed oils out of your diet. They cause a LOT of harm.
Our "vax"-injured family and friends, who REALLY need to take care of their cardiovascular and immune systems, should especially consider getting off seed oils.
Dr. Mark Hayman talks about about good and bad dietary fats in What The Heck Should I Eat. This book helped persuade me to avoid nearly all seed oils (usually called vegetable oils or cooking oils), ESPECIALLY Soybean and Canola oil. It's made a big difference in my health.
Start reading labels, and you'll find that these cheap oils are in almost everything. I find popular Organic salad dressings and mayo substitutes with canola and other horrid oils as the first or second ingredient. Dr. Hayman's list of oils to eat and oils to avoid (from pp. 169 - 170):
Good oils
- Organic avocado oil
- Butter from pastured, grass-fed cows or goats
- Grass-fed ghee (clarified butter)
- Organic virgin coconut oil
- Organic, humanely raised tallow (beef fat)
- Organic, humanely raised lard (pork fat)
- Organic, humanely raised duck fat
- Organic, humanely raised chicken fat
Use the next group raw, on salads or other foods, but don't cook them:
- Organic extra virgin olive oil
- Walnut oil
- Almond oil
- Macadamia oil
- Sesame seed oil
- Tahini (sesame seed paste)
- Flax oil
- Hemp oil
Avoid the following:
- Soybean oil
- Canola oil
- Corn oil
- Safflower oil
- Sunflower oil
- Palm oil
- Peanut oil
- Vegetable oil
- Vegetable shortening
- Margarine and all other butter substitutes, including the newest ones, which actually include butter among the ingredients
- Anything that says "hydrogenates"; it's poison
- Anything else that looks fake.
Note: many good oils are adulterated with cheaper oils; I've read (I forget where) that Italian crime groups make drug-lord-level money from selling "Organic, extra virgin olive oil" cut with other, cheaper oils. We've been buying California Estate Extra Virgin Olive Oil from Life Extension for some time, mostly because I've been shopping with LEF for decades and trust the ingredients in what they sell. No, not the cheapest olive oil you can find.
