On Air with Ella - podcast episode 276
You don't want a high-fat diet, or a low-fat diet, you want a RIGHT FAT diet. - Udo Erasmus
What's Important About Omega 3's, Healthy Oils and How We Use Them?
The human body can make most of the types of fats it needs from other fats or raw materials. That isn’t the case for omega-3 fatty acids. These are essential fats—the body can’t make them from scratch but must get them from food.
Food sources high in Omega-3 include fish, vegetable oils, nuts (especially walnuts), flax seeds, flaxseed oil, leafy vegetables... and Udo's Blend.
What makes omega-3 fats special?
They are an integral part of the body's cell membranes and affect the function of the cell receptors.
They provide the starting point for making hormones that regulate blood clotting, contraction and relaxation of artery walls, and inflammation.
They also bind to receptors in cells that regulate genetic function. Omega-3 fats have been shown to help prevent heart disease and stroke, may help control lupus, eczema, and rheumatoid arthritis, and may play protective roles in cancer and other conditions.
Most Americans take in far more Omega-6 fats (another essential fat) in their diets than they do Omega-3's
“Oils are more sensitive than any other nutrient." Omega 3's in particular are much more sensitive than others and subject to spoiling. S o how you handle them, store them and consume them makes a big difference.
Plastic permeability plays a major role in oil stability. Both butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) and butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) are found to leach out from plastics films into vegetable oils during storage.
