See book keywords and concepts |  Avoid saturated fats, trans-fats, hydrogenated or partially hydrogenated oils, and simple sugars (except when necessary to balance an insulin reaction). While total fat intake doesn't seem to change the risk of getting diabetes, the trans-saturated fats and hydrogenated oils found in most fast foods can greatly increase the risk. Beneficial fats and oils include extra virgin olive oil, fish oil, almond oil and butter, avocados, nuts, and seed oils such as sesame, flax, sunflower, and pumpkin.
Q Eat more complex carbohydrates or reduce your insulin dosage before exercise. |
Russell L. Blaylock, M.D.
See book keywords and concepts |  Some people have a poor supply of this enzyme, or what they do have has been damaged by chronic disease, high intake of partially hydrogenated oils, viral infections, or by a high insulin level. In the course of my nutritional practice, I have seen several people who have been unable to convert flaxseed oil to DHA and EPA. This condition can be measured by a metabolic profile test.
In both men and women, extreme exercise can also damage reproductive cells by generating enormous amounts of free radicals. | | This campaign resulted in a dramatic increase in the use of partially hydrogenated oils containing high levels of trans fatty acids. Soon, virtually every product using oils now contained these harmful trans fats. The increase in trans fatty acids in foods is illustrated by the finding that in 1982 a sample food contained 2.4 grams of trans fatty acid. By 1992, this identical food contained 19.2 grams.
According to the Department of Agriculture, a typical serving of chicken nuggets contains 33 to 43 grams of fat, of which 35 percent to 40 percent are trans fats. |
Neal D. Barnard and Bryanna Clark Grogan
See book keywords and concepts |  If you spot animal products or partially hydrogenated oils in the ingredients list, do not buy the food. And if there are more than 2 to 3 grams of fat in a serving, skip it.
3. Add special-effect foods. The best of these are oats, beans, and soy products. They are filling but modest in calories, and they really do bring your cholesterol down. It is easy to add special-effect foods to your routine.
Oats: Start your day with a bowl of old-fashioned oatmeal. Top it with cinnamon if you like, but skip the milk and sugar or use soy milk. |
James F. Balch, M.D. and Mark Stengler, N.D.
See book keywords and concepts |  Products like margarine are called partially hydrogenated oils.
It's ironic and unfortunate that margarine and even vegetable shortening are touted as heart-healthful products. For years, doctors have told us to replace butter with margarine, and most brands of shortening loudly proclaim that they have less saturated at than butter does. But as you have probably heard, researchers have discovered that the hydrogenated process produces altered molecules called trans-fatty acids. |
Byron J. Richards, CCN
See book keywords and concepts |  This includes foods free of chemicals, preservatives, food coloring, partially hydrogenated oils, hormones, antibiotics, and mold toxins from being stored too long.
THE IMPORTANCE OF THE FIVE RULES
The Five Rules are not a special diet in the conventional sense. Conventional diets rely on inducing starvation metabolism in order to lose weight. Their underlying principle is to eat less food and exercise more. Individuals with out-of-balance leptin seldom get to their goal weights in a healthy manner and stay there by following such diet guidelines. |

See book keywords and concepts |  They are the partially hydrogenated oils found in so many commercial products, including cakes, cookies, and margarines. Unfortunately, they are as dangerous, or more dangerous, than saturated fats. They increase bad cholesterol levels and are associated with heart attacks and strokes.
An ever-growing body of research documents that many fats do not have the adverse effects of the saturated and trans fats. In fact, evidence is building that the unsaturated, non - trans fats are actually good for us. Where Mediterranean oils are used abundantly, heart attack and stroke rates are very low. |
James F. Balch, M.D. and Mark Stengler, N.D.
See book keywords and concepts | | It is also important to avoid harmful fats, such as trans-fatty acids, which occur in margarine and partially hydrogenated oils. Studies have shown that women who follow a low-fat diet experience a reduction in PMS symptoms.
Food allergies often mimic the symptoms of PMS or make existing symptoms worse. Consult the Food Allergies section, and use the elimination diet on page 253. If you can identify foods that give you trouble, eliminate them from your diet completely.
Sugar throws blood-sugar levels off balance, promoting mood swings and tension. | | Food to Avoid
Saturated fats, along with hydrogenated or partially hydrogenated oils, slow down your circulation and worsen the inflammation of the blood vessels. Avoid them.
Sugar and other refined carbohydrates can lead to weight gain and constipation. Dramatically reduce your intake of sweets and refined foods.
Caffeine and alcohol are dehydrating, and they worsen varicose veins.
Detoxification
If you are chronically constipated, a three-day juice fast will help clear out your bowels and give you a fresh start. |
KC Craichy
See book keywords and concepts |  Most of the trans fats in the American diet are found in foods such as French fries, onion rings, shortening, margarine, donuts, partially hydrogenated oils, dressings, puffed cheese snacks, potato chips, tortilla chips, burgers, chicken nuggets, ice cream, candy, cookies, and cakes. Unlike saturated fats, trans fats do not produce any good HDL cholesterol, and they raise bad LDL.
It's Still a Potato Chip
It may say "low fat" and even "organic" on the label, but let's get real ... a potato chip is a potato chip no matter how you "slice it. |
Steven G. Pratt, M.D. and Kathy Matthews
See book keywords and concepts |  Always check the label for partially hydrogenated oils. If they are listed, don't buy the item; there is no safe amount of so-called trans fat.
Go to the market with the mindset of a hunter-gatherer. First stop is the fresh fruit-vegetable section, and then on to various whole grain products, legumes, nuts and seeds, low-fat/nonfat dairy, and so forth.
On some food labels both sodium and potassium are listed; a potassium to sodium ratio of 4:1 or more is ideal.

See article keywords and concepts |  So what are companies like Kraft putting in their foods instead of avocado? partially hydrogenated oils, of course, because it's a lot cheaper than avocados. The dip from Kraft has less than 2% avocado which means it's really not guacamole. It's more like "dumpster dip" because the primary ingredients are garbage for your diet.
This recipe may not be a big surprise given that avocado is a rather expensive ingredient to use. It's much cheaper to use hydrogenated oils and artificial colors such as yellow #5 and blue #1 to give it the appearance and color of avocado. |
Steven G. Pratt, M.D. and Kathy Matthews
See book keywords and concepts | | Look for peanut butter with no added sugar, no salt, if possible, and, most important, with no partially hydrogenated oils. I like Laura Scudder's all natural old-fashioned peanut butter no salt added. I store it upside down in the pantry for a few days before I open it so the oil is dispersed throughout and I don't have to stir it quite so much.
NUTS TO THE RESCUE
While the evidence supporting nuts' contribution to heart health and diabetes prevention is impressive, we must remember that nuts, like every other SuperFood, don't just target a few isolated systems in our bodies. |
Bradley J. Willcox, M.D., D. Craig Willcox, Ph.D., Makoto Suzuki, M.D.
See book keywords and concepts |  French fries); semisolid • Lowers HDL Hydrogenated and partially hydrogenated oils; Margarine;* Pastries; Pies there is too much LDL cholesterol in the blood, it can be deposited on the walls of coronary arteries. LDL is referred to as "garbage" or "bad" cholesterol. High-density lipoproteins, or HDL (remember the //for "healthy"), carry cholesterol from the blood back to the liver, which eliminates it from the body. |
Jack Challem
See book keywords and concepts |  Avoid conventional cooking oils such as corn, safflower, sunflower, and soybean oil, as well as vegetable shortening, margarine, and partially hydrogenated oils.
8. Identify and avoid food allergens.
9. Avoid or strictly limit your intake of food products that contain sugars, such as sucrose or high-fructose corn syrup.
10. Avoid or limit your intake of refined grains.
11. Limit your intake of dairy products.
12. Snack on nuts and seeds.
13. When thirsty, drink water.
14. Whenever possible, buy and eat organically raised foods.
15. To lose weight, reduce both carbohydrates and calories. | | Vegetable shortenings and hard margarines are among the worst of such products, but you will find partially hydrogenated oils in salad dressings, nondairy creamers, bakery products, and many processed foods.
It is always wise to carefully read the label of a food package. You are most likely to run into all of these pro-inflammatory oils in fast-food restaurants (McDonald's, Burger King, KFC), Chinese restaurants, and "low end" chain restaurants (Denny's and Carrow's), which rely heavily on processed, ready-to-heat foods. |
Michael Castleman
See book keywords and concepts |  Margarine, butter, shortening, lard, coconut oil, palm oil and all hydrogenated or partially hydrogenated oils are forbidden, as well as all commercial products containing hydrogenated or partially hydrogenated oils.
Canned foods are permitted as long as they contain no forbidden fats.
Breads are permitted, but chips, cookies, cakes, muffins, biscuits and other baked goods prepared with forbidden fats are not.
All fruits and vegetables are permitted, but olives and avocados must be limited because of their relatively high fat content. Fruit and vegetable juices are permitted. |
Steven G. Pratt, M.D. and Kathy Matthews
See book keywords and concepts | | Since cholesterol is present only in animal fats, if you focus on the amount of saturated fat and partially hydrogenated oils in your diet and try to substitute plant-derived protein like beans, you're well on your way to reducing your blood cholesterol levels and improving your overall health.
That said, it is still a healthy goal to keep your blood cholesterol levels low. How do you achieve this? Increase the amount of beans in your diet by eating xh cup of beans each day. We all remember hearing about the power of oat bran to lower your blood cholesterol. |
Gary Null
See book keywords and concepts | | The first rule is to be sure to read labels so that you can avoid dyes, additives, partially hydrogenated oils, hidden sugars, binders, fillers, preservatives and a host of chemicals that do nothing to keep your body healthy but just maintain shelf life for packed and processed food.
What to Substitute
Rather than red meats, consume fish. Instead of hamburgers and hot dogs, have soy-based alternatives. Instead of egg substitutes, there is Tofu Scrambler, a flavored tofu mixture, which is much better for you than Eggbeaters. |
Bruce Fife and Jon J. Kabara
See book keywords and concepts |  If you eat margarine, shortening, hydrogenated or partially hydrogenated oils (common food additives), then you are consuming trans fatty acids.
Many of the foods you buy in the store and in restaurants are prepared with or cooked in hydrogenated oil. Fried foods sold in grocery stores and restaurants are usually cooked in hydrogenated oil. Many frozen, processed foods are cooked or prepared in hydrogenated oils. |
Tanya Harter Pierce
See book keywords and concepts |  Unfortunately, the amount of manmade, partially hydrogenated oils known as "trans-fatty acids" is extremely high in modern Western diets. These trans-fats are so similar to cholesterol that our bodies cannot tell the difference. They are mistakenly used in place of good cholesterol to build cell membranes. This then causes these cell membranes to lack a vital electrical charge that would normally attract oxygen. Without sufficient oxygen, the cellular environment becomes more and more anaerobic. |
Bruce Fife and Jon J. Kabara
See book keywords and concepts | | C) and partially hydrogenated oils somewhere in between these two. If the oil is not completely liquid when its temperature is above 76?F (25?C), it's been hydrogenated—don't use it. I've had oil like this in our bathroom on hot summer days with the temperature in the 90s and only about a third of the oil turned into liquid. So I knew it was hydrogenated even though it did not say so on the label. Unadulterated coconut oil would be totally liquid after a couple hours at this temperature.
When used as a skin lotion, food grade coconut oil is preferred. | | Over the years the tropical oils have been replaced in most foods by hydrogenated and partially hydrogenated oils. Hydrogenation is a process where an unsaturated vegetable oil is chemically altered to form a more saturated fat. Increasing the saturation makes the oil less susceptible to spoilage and is cheaper than animal or tropical oils. Hydrogenation involves heating oils to high temperatures while bombarding them with hydrogen atoms, thus creating toxic trans fatty acids. These artificial fats are structurally different from natural fats. |
David Brownstein
See book keywords and concepts |  Many products are made with partially hydrogenated oils; these include crackers, cookies, cakes, pasta, and bread. Whenever you see that partially hydrogenated oils have been used in a product, avoid it. It is impossible for the body to overcome a chronic illness when ingesting the wrong types of fat.
On the contrary, using the right cooking oil can have significant health benefits. Good oils are generally found in darkened containers because light is damaging to healthy oils. |
Gary Null
See book keywords and concepts | | Avoid margarine and other foods containing trans-fatty acids, particularly partially hydrogenated oils. They interfere with very important nutrients in the diet, the most important of which are the essential fatty acids.
Fiber Is Detoxifying
When you go on a Power Aging protocol, healthy fibers are gradually introduced into the diet in the form of whole grains, legumes, and the fruit fibers in berries. |

See book keywords and concepts |  Question: Subject: partially hydrogenated oils. Does partially hydrogenated oils contribute or cause cancer. Any information. It appears in almost everything we eat. Any way to counteract it if it is bad for us? Is it bad for us? M.R., a cancer survivor trying to stay that way Answer: In my opinion, and in the opinion of numerous other researchers, the partially hydrogenated vegetable fats and oils have nothing beneficial to offer. Research indicates they are involved in cancer potentiation and heart disease potentiation. |
Larry Trivieri, Jr.
See book keywords and concepts |  Braly also recommends limiting foods high in saturated fats, including red meats, dairy products, warm-water shellfish, and partially hydrogenated oils, as well as avoiding alcohol and severely limiting caffeine. He suggests a diet high in fiber and nonallergenic complex carbohydrates. "Organic, free-range poultry, cold-water fish, and vegetable protein sources are also good," he says, "while margarine, shortenings, and other sources of partially hydrogenated oils should be omitted. Simple or refined sugars, including fruit juices, sodas, and pastries, are also culprits."
Along with diet, Dr. |

On the contrary, using the right cooking oil can have significant health benefits. Good oils are generally found in darkened containers because light is damaging to healthy oils. They should have an expiration date, as contrasted with hydrogenated oils that are devoid of all living matter and can sit on the shelf forever. Healthy cooking oils include extra virgin olive oil and coconut oil. |
