$100 Billion Dollar Ingredient Killing You #nutritiontips #wellnesswarrior #cookingoil
So, which fats are high in LA and need to be avoided?
(Follow @dr.nickzyrowski for daily health tips)
Some of the most common ones to be avoided include:
• Cottonseed oil
• Canola oil
• Corn oil
• Soybean oil
• Safflower oil
• Sunflower oil
150 years ago these oils did not exist. When industrial food processing began processed seed and vegetable oils were introduced as a replacement to healthy animal fats like lard and tallow, which had previously been used as the norm.
Like omega-3, Linoleic Acid is a polyunsaturated fat (PUFA), but unlike omega-3, LA, when consumed in excess, acts as a metabolic poison. Anything above 2% of your daily calories is likely to cause problems.

Ps.. Healthy Oils include avocado, coconut, and olive oil. Avocado and coconut are best for cooking and high heat.
