Dr Mercola's Nutritional Typing

 

Hi BL,

Dr. Mercola is talking about good fats, versus bad ones.

Good: coconut oil (doesn't change into trans fats when you cook with it as most oils do, olive oil not good for heating at high temps either) or if you can manage it, coconut oil taken by the teaspoon raw, really good. Ghee also good for using in cooking & rice bran oil not bad either. Butter much, much healthier than margarine would you believe...it's a 'good' fat (but ghee removes the lactose from it for CF). Olive oil on salads or cold poured over hot veggies. Sesame oil strong, don't use too much, but it's a good fat. Sunflower can be used if not too high heat.

Bad: all margarines (they have some severe crap in all of them, as do any kind of 'spreads') All vegetable oils (not sure if that's what you mean by 'cooking oil'. Salad dressing spread, sorry, is also in this category...no goodness in them.

Hope this helps just a bit because you sure do help a lot of people yourself on this site. (And hope you feel better soon)
