For the past couple of weeks, Dr. Brian Stenzler shared about two of four four food dealbreakers mentioned in his book, DREAM Wellness: The 5 Keys to Raising Kids for a Lifetime of Physical and Mental Health; corn syrup and artificial sweeteners. As promised, this week he will let you know why you should stop consuming food with hydrogenated oils, and how to avoid them. The next Wellness Wiki will be dedicated to informing you about artificial food coloring (food dyes) and why they should be avoided at all costs. While these are not the only ingredients you should consider avoiding, if you want your body to look, feel and function the way you desire, then there is no place for these items in your or your family's diet, PERIOD. The Skinny on Fat In this video, you will learn: What are good fats and bad fats Saturated and Unsaturated HDL- Good cholesterol vs LDL- Bad cholesterol What are hydrogenated oils and why are they bad? What is partially hydrogenated versus fully hydrogenated? What are trans fats? Unsaturated fats are found in nuts, seeds, olive oil, fish (and more), and should be plentiful in your diet. This is also where you find your omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids that are essential for a healthy you. Unsaturated fats raise your good cholesterol (HDL) and lower your bad cholesterol (LDL) and have been known to reduce the risk of heart disease and strokes. Saturated fats are found in foods such as lamb, beef, chicken skin and cheese. While some of those foods are very tasty and contain a lot of important nutrients, the risks associated with the saturated fat content may outweigh the benefits if consumed in large amounts. That said, not all saturated fats are created equal. Coconut is an example of a saturated fat that offers health benefits in the form of medium chain triglycerides (MCTs). The body does not store MCTs as fat but rather burns them for additional energy. If you are going to choose to consume saturated fats, the coconut family, including coconut butter, coconut oil and coconut milk, offers a much healthier option than the saturated fats hiding within the other foods lining your supermarket aisles. What are Trans Fats and Hydrogenated Oils? If a food item contains fewer than 0.5 grams of trans fat, it can legally be labeled as trans fat free, and the food producer may even list 0 grams of trans fat on the label. Even though trans fats are banned in the United States, many food manufacturers are still using them in small amounts for various reasons, including to help certain items, like peanut butter, spread more easily. Hydrogenated oils, particularly partially hydrogenated, not only raise your LDLs, but they also lower your HDLs. That alone is a major precursor to cardiovascular disease including heart attacks and strokes. They also raise blood sugar considerably and potentially lead to type II diabetes. Additionally, they are highly inflammatory food ingredients, which is something that benefits no one. Not only are the potential health risks above enough to be concerning, but keep in mind that because hydrogenated oils are typically found in processed food items, all the other ill health effects of those ingredients compound the negative impact on health. Common Culprits of Hydrogenated Oils Hydrogenated oils are likely in food items found on approximately 40% of the typical grocery store shelves. Shortening; salad dressings; fried foods like chicken fingers, French fries, and potato chips; baked goods such as cupcakes, donuts, cookies and pies; and even frozen pizza. Most snacks you buy for your kids are likely laden with hydrogenated oils. Look in your pantry right now and pick any snack you have for your kids and look at the label. It’s very likely you will find at least one item in your house, if not dozens. Then you can get some exercise when you walk (or jog) to your trash bin and promptly throw them away. You should also be aware that most restaurants cook their foods with hydrogenated oils, and they often reuse the oil over and over again. Fast food restaurants are known for this practice, but it is not as widely known that this is commonplace in many food establishments. This is yet another case for homecooked meals, where you know exactly what is going into the food in your home, and ultimately the bellies and bloodstream of everyone in the household. And when you prepare your homecooked meals, do so with as many clean (non-processed and preferably organic and non-GMO) ingredients as possible.
