About Fats

Some people on diets attempt to exclude all fats, however fats themselves are not unhealthy but the way that they are processed can have negative effects on our health. For example, good fats are sensitive to destruction by heat, light and air. Omega–3 and Omega 6 fatty acids spoil quickly and do not have a long shelf life. Omega-3 fatty acids is destroyed by light, air, and heat 5 times more rapidly than is the omega-6.

Food processing damages natural fats and make them toxic. This includes hydrogenation, which produces man made trans-fats

• Margarine
• shortening
• Partially-hydrogenated vegetable oils

Frying also damages oils by exposing them to high levels of heat.

People on low fat diets are usually deficient in omega 3 fatty acids. More conditions deficiency conditions respond to omega- 3 supplementation that omega 6 fatty acids.

Tran's fats
According to the Harvard School of Public Health, trans- fatty acids double risk of heart attack, kill at least 30,000 Americans every year, and increase risk of diabetes. They also interfere with essential fatty acid function, and make essential fatty acid deficiency worse by blocking the receptors for the good fats that help repair our cell membranes
