Fats! Fear Not! Fats are a VERY necessary part of human health! The right kind of fats will contribute to keeping you healthy and wise! Fats, saturated, unsaturated, cholesterol, animal fats, plant oils, - created by our Creator to keep us healthy, build strong cardiovascular systems and are an essential component of our nervous system.
Its the ones created by man - FACTORY FATS - if you will, that one must be careful to avoid.
I will not go into too much detail in this post, but rather share a couple of very reliable links with you that further tell the story. This first link is to Weston Price's video on fantastic fats in the kitchen - a great resource with great suggestions for eating healthier fats.
This second link is to - well - LOTS of valuable information. Pick an article or two and enjoy. Or do as I do - research the topic until you bleed coconut oil. Whether you choose to read a little or a lot - any thing you can do to educate yourself on this topic will benefit you and your family greatly!
If you find your curiosity piqued - try out some fantastic fats in your home diet. Coconut oil, Olive oil, fats from grass fed animals. Our family LOVES coconut oil - the amazing benefits of coconut oil are countless. Below is a link to a great site heralding some of the benefits (and top 10 kitchen uses) for coconut oil.
Well - that was an short post - we hope to post more details later in the week. Fat is such a widely discussed topic, entire books are written on just this subject alone. Hopefully you get a chance to do a little research before our next blog post.
And I will leave you with a very interesting thought:
Factory fats became one of the first processed foods in the late 1940's and made many processed foods possible. Since that time, inflammatory diseases in the United States have risen proportionally with the consumption of processed foods, including factory fats.
Happy Researching!
