Saturated fats are primarily found in foods that come from animals, such as meat and dairy. Try to switch to lower-fat versions of these foods. In order to avoid trans fat, look on nutrition labels for ingredients such as “partially hydrogenated” oils or shortening.

  • The Scoop on Coconut Oil Coconut Oil Is an Edible Oil Extracted from the “Meat” of Matured Coconuts
    Family and Consumer Science/Extension Homemakers Club May/June 2016 The Scoop on Coconut Oil Coconut oil is an edible oil extracted from the “meat” of matured coconuts. It has several appli- cations in the food industry. It is used in processed foods because it is relatively inexpensive and can provide crisp texture to foods. Coconut oil has a high smoke point, the temperature where it starts to break down, which makes it shelf stable and ideal for foods that need a longer shelf-life. Hydrogenated and partially hydrogenated coconut oil are found in cereals, baked goods, biscuits, salty snacks, soaps, cosmetics and moisturizers. According to some health food promoters and celebrity doctors, coconut oil is the latest miracle food, claiming it can cure everything from heart disease to obesity and cancer. However, the ef- fects of coconut oil on health have not been well studied. These health claims tend to be based more on personal testimonials than on scientific evidence. In fact, there are very few studies in people showing benefits of coconut oil – most of these studies are epidemiology studies (e.g., population studies) that show a link between high coconut-consuming countries and longevity [1 -2]. Coconut oil is considered a saturated fat and contains 9 calories per gram. There are two basic types of fats – saturated and unsaturated. Unsaturated fats are healthy fats and include plant- based fats (such as vegetable oils and fats found in nuts, avocados and seeds) and fish oils. These fats should be the primary fats in your diet because they either do not affect cholesterol levels or they raise HDL (good) cholesterol without raising LDL (bad) cholesterol.

  • Cut Down on Saturated Fats
    DIETARY GUIDELINES Cut Down on FOR AMERICANS 2015-2020 EIGHTH EDITION Saturated Fats Limiting saturated fats is important for your health — and it doesn’t mean you have to cut down on flavor. Learn how to swap out saturated fats for healthier options. The 2015–2020 Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommends limiting calories from saturated fats to less than 10% of the total calories you eat and drink each day. That’s about 200 calories for a 2,000 calorie diet. What are saturated fats? What are unsaturated fats? Saturated fats are one type of fat in the foods we eat and the Unsaturated fats are beverages we drink. Most come from animal products, like dairy, found in some foods and meat, and poultry. To limit the amount of saturated fats you eat, most oils. There are 2 choose lower-fat and lean options of dairy, meat, and poultry — types of unsaturated fats: like skim milk, lean beef, and grilled chicken breast without monounsaturated fatty acids the skin.

  • Omega-6:Omega-3 Fatty Acid Ratio and Total Fat Content of the Maternal Diet Alter Offspring Growth and Fat Deposition in the Rat

Their possible early life effects on offspring fat deposition, however, remain to be established. To investigate this, female Wistar rats (n = 6–9 per group) were fed either a 9:1 ratio of linoleic acid (LA) to alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) or a lower 1:1.5 ratio during pregnancy and lactation. Each ratio was fed at two total fat levels (18% vs. 36% fat w/w) and offspring were weaned onto standard laboratory chow. Offspring exposed to a 36% fat diet, irrespective of maternal dietary LA:ALA ratio, were lighter (male, 27 g lighter; female 19 g lighter; p < 0.0001) than those exposed to an 18% fat diet between 3 and 8 weeks of age.

  • The Truth About Coconut Oil ( by Kathleen M
    The Truth About Coconut Oil (http://www.webmd.com/diet/features/coconut-oil-and-health) By Kathleen M. Zelman, MPH, RD, LD, WebMD Expert Column Coconut oil, according to recent reports, is the latest food cure-all. Claims abound that coconut oil is a health food that can cure everything from poor immune function, thyroid disease, and heart disease, to obesity, cancer, and HIV. So should you stock up on coconut oil? Not so fast. The evidence that coconut oil is super-healthful is not convincing and these claims appear to be more testimonials than clinical evidence. There is very limited evidence on disease outcomes, says Dariush Mozaffarian, MD, DrPH, of Harvard Medical School and Harvard School of Public Health. "All that has been studied well is the impact of coconut oil on cholesterol levels and the findings are intriguing but we still don't know if it is harmful or beneficial," Mozaffarian says. Neither the American Heart Association (AHA) nor the U.S. government's 2010 Dietary Guidelines suggest that coconut oil is any better or preferable over other saturated fats. Coconut oil, like all saturated fats, should be limited to 7%-10% of calories because it can increase risk for heart disease, according to the AHA and 2010 Dietary Guidelines. What Is Coconut Oil? Pure virgin coconut oil, containing no hydrogenation (the process of adding hydrogen to make a liquid fat hard), contains 92% saturated fat -- the highest amount of saturated fat of any fat. Most saturated fats are solid at room temperature, found in animal products (such as meat, dairy, poultry with skin, and beef fat) and contain cholesterol.

  • Final Thesis
    ABSTRACT What a Fat Debacle: Saturated and Trans Fatty Acids Effect on Health and the Future of Food Manufacturing Processes Liz Kong Director: Dr. Janelle M. Walter The recommended consumption of fat has been changed multiple times by the USDA’s Dietary Guidelines for Americans in the past decade due to expanding nutrition knowledge. Not only the amount of fat, but the type of fat in the American diet is considered for recommendations to health and food production. Saturated fats in general have long been shown to contribute to chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disease, cancer, and obesity. In response to consumers’ demands for healthier food products, food manufacturers started using the hydrogenation process to lower the saturated fat content of foods. However, research on health implications and subsequent policy changes of these trans fatty acids, such as listing trans fat content on food label nutrition facts, led the same food companies to re-evaluate the hydrogenation process, or production of trans fat, and begin using alternatives to partially hydrogenated oils. Fifteen food companies were contacted through their websites and surveyed about what kinds of oils and/or methods they used to replace the previously used partially hydrogenated oils in their food products to maintain standards for taste and texture. This research and literature review reveals that food companies are back to using saturated fats and tropical oils, especially coconut oil, instead of the cheap trans fats in their products. Contradicting facts on saturated fats and coconut oil are further explored, with the emphasis on the beneficial functions of coconut oil.
