Heart Healthy fats is a huge question we have when we discover
that we have high blood pressure and other cardiovascular
diseases. Are there fats that I am eating that aren’t good for
my Heart health? Is there a difference in fats and some are
heart Healthy?
Reading labels is one way that we trust, that the
companies making our purchased food, are telling the
truth of the ingredients. Well, that is not necessarily the
truth anymore as the laws changed again and now they
can reduce the serving size and call their products
trans fat free, when in actuality, they can still put
different terms on the trans fats they use in our foods.
Watch this video for a further explanation of what heart
healthy fats are and are not:

Wellness discusses trans fats. Trans fats look more like plastic
under a microscope than fats. They are essentially “fake fats”,
concocted in a laboratory. Food companies love them
since they keep food from spoiling but they also have dire
cardiovascular consequences. Read labels. Avoid
partially hydrogenated oils and trans fats!
These partially hydrogenated oils and trans fats are what is
causing several types of heart disease as they are not natural,
causing plaque build ups, in our veins and arteries.
So what kinds of fat do I need for heart healthy fats? We need
to include the flax seed and coconut oils for our stir-frying.
Olive is better than most other oils but it still is the
best heart healthy fat.
Take some notes from this video and learn the value of
high fat foods for our heart health. Yes, we need the
quality rich fats provided for us in the organic seeds
and nuts daily for keeping our heart healthy. We need
a balance of foods to keep our heart healthy and
also to keep other diseases from attacking our bodies:
Dr. Fuhrman — Value of High Fat Foods
The importance of eating nuts and seeds for health,
rather than oils and why super low fat eating is not ideal,
and more about essential fatty acids. Olive oil is not good
for your heart! (It’s just not as bad as other fats most
people eat, but it still promotes heart disease.) This is
a 10-minute excerpt from one of Dr. Fuhrman’s
90-minute talks from the Healthy Lifestyle Expo 2007.
