3 Reasons Why You Must Avoid Vegetable Oils

The 3 reasons you should NEVER use Vegetable Oils...
Although vegetable oil has a healthy sounding name, it's NOT made from vegetables...As you might already know, vegetable oil actually comes from any combination of corn oil, soybean oil, canola oil, safflower oil, and/or cottonseed oil, ALL of which are absolutely terrible for your health.
In fact, they are downright deadly, and I'm not exaggerating.  Here's why...

Reason #1 -- Vegetable oils usually contain deadly trans fats, even if non-hydrogenated

You already KNOW that trans fats are deadly, so I won't go into all of the science as to why trans fats kill you and DAMAGE your cell membranes in your body...leading to all sorts of scary health problems like cancer, obesity, Alzheimer's, heart disease, and more.

Knowing these facts, I'm sure you already know to stay away from foods that contain partially hydrogenated vegetable oils. You've heard that a million times before.
However, what you probably DON'T know is that even non-hydrogenated vegetable oils (all vegetable oils are refined) also contain some trans fats due to the extremely high heat, solvents, and pressure they are exposed to during the refining process.  And yes, this includes so-called "expeller pressed" vegetable oils as well.
All of this high heat and high pressure processing along with the use of hexane solvents actually forces some of the polyunsaturated content of vegetable oils (yes, even so-called "healthy" canola oil) to be transformed into trans fats and something even worse that we'll talk about in a minute called "MegaTrans".
According to Dr. Mary Enig, PhD, and Nutritional Biochemist, "Although the Canadian government lists the trans fat content of canola at a minimal 0.2 percent, research at the University of Florida at Gainesville, found trans fat levels as high as 4.6 percent in commercial liquid canola oil".
And this is the garbage that the government and giant food conglomerates are marketing to you as a "healthy oil"!  Don't fall for it.

Reason #2 -- Vegetable oils contain oxidized "mutated fats" that are worse than trans fat & CAUSE heart attacks
All vegetable oils contain oxidized fats due to the refining process and chemical reactions with the polyunsaturated fat content of vegetable oils.  Expert Nutrition author, Catherine Shanahan, MD, calls the fats in vegetable oils "MegaTrans", because they are similar in chemistry to trans fats, but even WORSE.
And MegaTrans from vegetable oils are found in almost ALL processed packaged foods, as well as virtually ALL restaurant fryers.
French Fries proven to immediately harm your arteries after eating them:
Free radicals formed during the refining of vegetable oils create these "mutant" fats, which damage your cell membranes & chromosomes, and create massive inflammation in your body.
The free radicals in vegetable oils also damage your arteries, which can directly lead to a heart attack.  Please be aware that this isn't just a long-term risk of eating vegetable oils daily.  There are also studies that show immediate dysfunction in your arteries, also called endothelial function.
Catherine Shanahan, MD, cites in her book Deep Nutrition a study from New Zealand that showed that subjects who ate french fries from a restaurant fryer displayed immediate harm to their endothelial function of their arteries, going from a normal 7% dilation before eating the french fries to almost NO dilation at all (only 1%) AFTER eating the french fries. This is one thing that can cause a heart attack.
If you think I'm exaggerating, think again... Dr Shanahan also surveyed hundreds of patients that were admitted to the hospital for a heart attack, and discovered that every single patient that just had a heart attack had consumed foods made with vegetable oils with their last meal before the heart attack...Scary huh!
Think about THAT next time you order the fries with that sandwich on the menu!  It really is THAT serious.  Always ask to replace french fries that come with most meals with side veggies, fruit, or a salad instead.  That may very well be the difference between dying tomorrow or enjoying many more years on this beautiful planet.

Reason #3 -- Vegetable oils cause massive imbalances with your Omega-6 to Omega-3 fats ratio
One of the other MAJOR reasons that vegetable oils are killing you is they are mostly made up of inflammatory omega-6 fats, while having very little anti-inflammatory omega-3 fats.
The healthiest ratio from the scientific literature appears to be a ratio of 2:1 or even 1:1 for your omega-6 to omega-3 ratio.  However, most vegetable oils skew your ratio as high as 20:1 or even 30:1 in favor of harmful inflammatory omega-6 fats.
And worse yet, these omega-6 fats are NOT the innocent type found in nuts, they are the "mutant" damaged MegaTrans type that harm the tissues of your body.
This Omega fat imbalance can be YET another reason why vegetable oils lead to heart disease, cancer, obesity, and many other degenerative diseases that WILL shorten your life significantly if you don't cut out the vegetable oils ASAP.
As a quick note, the solution to all of these major problems with vegetable oils is to Avoid the use of OILS this is MUCH healthier than vegetable oils and don't cause any of the problems we've described in this section of the article.
Better still to avoid cooking with oils is the best option and I know how surprising and awkward this must sound at the same time. I really mean each and every word I pen down here about avoid cooking with every kind of oil... But the question that will be bulging your mind now is how then do we do the cooking that are grease enhanced, such as frying, stewing and some other cooking methods that will require the use of oil to at least act as grease. Yes that will be the big opportunity I will dish out on getting Our information handy CLICK HERE TO GET THE FULL DETAIL

You Are What You Eat

WATCH WHAT YOU EAT!!!

We are what we eat but often do we hear such expressions, frequently right but how much do we think of it?

See these pictures perhaps they will tell you a story of what we are about to arrive at.
 

Yummy Yummy Yummy, they all must be going and you wish you are doing same right.
You see these guys up here, all have one thing in common... "DIET ABUSE." That's what I will refer it to. They all have eaten their way off balance... They are overweight and obesed and can't even control a whole lot things in their lives, from the physical sense to the the chemical reactions in them. Sincerely, this kind of weight gained results to life style threatening illnesses such as:
1* Obesity
2* Diabetes
3* Stroke
4* Cancer
5* Hypertension and Other Heart Diseases
6* Improper Digestion
7* Respiratory Problems
8* Other Complications Accompanying Life Threatening Ilnesses.

On the other hand, eating healthy balanced diets always result to good health, good looks and smart actions.
Looking good has always been everyone's delight. Every one wants to be admired, every one wants to be loved...

THE FOOD WE ALL EAT

Study Reveals That Fat People Have a Higher Ability to Smell Food
A study by Yale University showed a heightened ability to imagine odors was linked to food cravings and in turn to higher body weight.

 

By Onnaedo Okafo:

Scientists have found that the sense of smell is stronger and more vivid than fat people, something that could be responsible for their weight gain.

A study by Yale University showed a heightened ability to imagine odors was linked to food cravings and in turn to higher body weight.

The ability to vividly imagine the smell of popcorn, freshly baked biscuits and even non-food odors was found to be greater in obese adults.

According to the research group, most people can imagine the view of a favorite location or sing a song to themselves, but struggle to imagine smells associated with our favorite foods.

The researchers based their study on Kavanagh's Elaborated Intrusion Theory of Desire, which proposes that creating vivid mental images stimulates and maintains food cravings triggered by the thought, smell and sight of food.

In the study, participants completed a series of questionnaires that asked them to imagine both visual and odour cues and then to subsequently rate the vividness of the cues.

It was found that people with a higher body mass index (BMI) reported greater ability to vividly imagine food and non-food odours.

According to study lead author Dr Barkha Patel, "these findings highlight the need for a more individualistic approach in identifying factors that may increase risk for weight gain."

Also, senior author Dr Dana Small, a Professor of Psychiatry at the Yale School of Medicine in the US, called for "future work to assess imagery ability directly rather than relying upon self-report measures."
