San Antonio, listen up: if you don't have the right kind of fat in your diet you increase the likelihood of developing heart disease, cancer, Alzheimers and a host of other maladies. One of the benefits I especially like about quality fat in the diet is its ability to help us lose fat from our bodies!
When was the last time you heard that from a health or fitness prfessional?
Some time back, researchers at City of Hope Medical Center in California studied two groups of men. Group one ate a high-fat, low-calorie diet. Group two ate the typically government recommended (or Jared sponsored "Subway" model) low-fat diet containing an equal number of calories.
Group one (the guys on the high fat diet) lost 63% more weight.
Surprised?
Right now I can hear you asking, "So, Uncle Steve, what ARE the right fats?"
Contrary to what many would have you believe, animal fats are very healthy...provided the animal in question sustained itself on its natural diet. That means that most of the beef you can purchase from the store, you know the "corn fed" lot raised type, doesn't qualify.
In fact, grain fed beef has about 500% more saturated fat than their naturally raised, grass-fed counterparts. You see, too much saturated fat is not beneficial and can actually be very harmful, while the naturally occuring type is very healthy. And you might not be aware of this: naturally raised meat has the same lipid profile (beneficial Omega 3 to 6 ratios) as that of wild salmon.
There are a whole host of good fats that I hope you will make an effort to add to your daily eating regimen. These include naturally raised animal goods, fish oil, olive oil, coconut oil, walnut and macadamia nut oils, avocados, and nuts.
I also hope you'll join me in doing what you can to eliminate or drastically reduce the amount of processed vegetable oils, like corn or soybean oils, from your diet. These are trash "foods" and will do nothing but damage your system. And if a product your contemplating eating has the word "hydrogenated" in its list of ingredients, just put it back on the shelf or throw it away.
That stuff ain't fit for man nor beast.
Maybe you can oil the hinges of your doors with it.
