Due to this generous gift of cash from the makers of Crisco, the AHA now had sufficient funding to grow its national profile as a physician’s organization dedicated to heart health.
Not surprisingly, the AHA was also quick to endorse industrial seed oils.
We now know in the U.S. as “vegetable oils." (as described earlier)
The AHA claimed that seed oils were a healthier alternative to traditional animal fats.
During the early 1950s, a physiologist & researcher named Ancel Keys introduced his Diet-Heart Hypothesis.
He presented data that seemed to suggest a link between saturated fat and cholesterol intake and heart disease.
In Key's Seven Countries Study, the data supported his hypothesis.
What we later found out, is he left out 15 of the countries that did not correlate with his hypothesis.
I don't think that is how science is supposed to work!
Since animal fats are a rich source of dietary saturated fat and cholesterol, they quickly became the object of Key's hypothesis.
Citing animal fats as “unhealthy,” Keys instead recommended the consumption of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs)
Also Known As:
Seed oils
Keys’ hypothesis & suggestions aligned with the industrial seed oil industry’s motives—to get people to eat more seed oils!
Soon, there were ads for “heart-healthy” margarine (a solid form of vegetable oil) and other seed oils became commonplace
Healthy, traditional fats were demonized.
Saturated fats were labeled as "heart clogging".
And then general public accepted this "truth" since it came from scientists and national organizations.
During the last 100 years, heart disease and cancer rates have risen as the public has consumed less saturated fat, increased its carbohydrate intake, and greatly increased the consumption of seed oils.
Obesity rates have mirrored the same substantial climb.
Now 2 out of every 3 Americans are overweight.
Half of those are clinically obese!
Every country that follows our western food habits quickly begins to have the same increase in weight & diseases.
Luckily, you can do something about it to improve and maintain your health.
The research is now overwhelming that you should not consume these types of oils.
And you should consume traditional foods with saturated fats.
Here are the healthy fats you should consume:
•Animal fats/lard/tallow
•Fish oil
•Coconut oil
•Olive oil
•Avocado oil
•Avocados
•Macadamia oil
•Tree Nuts
These have been consumed for millennia by humans.
Also, they do not have to be chemically extracted to be obtained and consumed.
And these do not produce inflammation in the body as seed oils do.
In fact, the above-listed healthy fats lower and help regulate inflammation in the body.
There's a transformative habit I would highly encourage you to pick up:
=> Eliminate seed oils from your diet.
It will have one of THE largest impacts on your health!
Additionally, you will notice a difference in how you feel within 2 weeks.
Guaranteed.
Just try it.
Genuinely jokes how Bones and All is marketed as a typical coming-of-age romance. The poor old ladies in my screening were shook. What a banging film and naughty cinematography tho!!!!
