These studies are done to skew everyone to think Olive Oil is the only healthy oil you should eat. Basically, they want to increase olive oil sales. They managed to convert a whole bunch of Western countries in Europe to switch to olive oil. Now they want the Asians to do the same.

[@adon8672]

She's just propagating and expanding on the myths promoted by Western governments and companies. There's nothing wrong with coconut oil and palm oil. In fact, saturated oils are better than unsaturated oils.

[@Nutri-Rich-Gardening]

Coconut oil is one of the best oil for body.. saturated fats are very necessary as they transport hormones in body. Basically trans fat is poison. And saturated fat is necessity. Processed food with any fat is harmful for body.

[@okradaokradi]

Like most nutritionists, Prof. Rob Van Dam still vilified saturated fats (SFA). I think the confusion came from not differentiating natural SFA vs artificial trans fats. Trans fats are saturated fats produced by partially hydrogenate vegetable oils. They are really bad. It is true that SFA can raise LDL-cholesterol levels (LDL). But it is the bad carbohydrates (carbs), especially sugar, that can glycate and oxidize the LDL particles and turn them BAD. So the culprit is the bad carbs and not LDL or saturated fats. About 50% of fat in human breast milk is saturated fat. Stay away from highly processed/refined seed oils such as grapeseed oil, canola oil (GMO), corn oil (GMO), soybean oil (GMO), sunflower oil and so on. They are high in inflammatory compounds, residual hexane solvent (0.8 ppm) and trans fat (1.8 to 3.6%). Remember, nature doesn’t make bad fats, factories do.

[@WongJLJerome]

Saturated fats are still bad, just not as bad as trans-fat. It doesn't mean that we should consume them more often though. Generally speaking under current food regulation, the amount of trans fat in commercially available product is limited. There is no need to stay away from refined oil as they are mostly unsaturated fat. GMO or not does not actually affect the oil. However, do stay away from deep fried food as the frying process does result in hydrogenation of oil, which leads to formation of trans-fat.

[@okradaokradi]

@@WongJLJerome 1. If you are still following Ancel Keys’ 1960 argument that saturated fat causes heart disease, then your information is out of date. There is no scientific evidence to support such a Diet-Heart Hypothesis. (ebm.bmj.com/content/early/2019/07/10/bmjebm-2019-111180) 2. Trans fat - The high-temperature RBD process generated between 1.8 to 3.6% by weight trans fat. The FDA allows any food products to be labeled 0 trans fat if it contains less than 0.5 g/serving trans fat. For example, one serving of canola oil is one tablespoon or 13.44 g. If the canola oil contains 3% trans fat, that translates to 0.4 g/serving. So the food company can still label the oil as zero trans fat. This is very misleading to the consumers. 3. Most inexpensive cooking oils are made from GMO crops (corn, soybean, canola) which contain high levels of glyphosate.

Wow I'm a huge fan of this show because it's usually very objective. But information here seems very outdated considering it's just 1 year ago. They should have taken different views. Didn't even differentiate between refined vs cold pressed oils. And when I heard Canola oil is beneficial (???) Better watch the FlavCity video regarding oils. Personally I use extra virgin olive oil and coconut oil.

[@wilsont1010]

Yes someone at the top is obviously sleeping in his/her job and ought to be fired for taxpayers' money and delivering harmful advice. The American College of Cardiology (ACC) has removed the daily upper limit of good saturated fats such as coconut oil and butter for years now and deemed it to be healthy and should be encouraged. LDL is not the issue but the triglyceride is, a better marker in a recent study is to take the ratio of triglycerides over HDL. This is why good saturated fat, which is lacking in the prevailing diet, is the fat which is essential to building a healthy CV system. The medical industry has known this golden truth for decades including most doctors, but they are not telling to their patients.

Canola oil, vegetable oil, peanut oils etc…a lot of them are terrible for you once they are heated because while they may have a high smoke point, unsaturated fats are generally unstable in high heats causing them to oxidize. Also, most of these widely used frying oils like canola and vegetable are hydrogenated which cause trans fats and will be what clogs your arteries.

[@eddiensw]

This report wants you to assume the 1950s unproven myth that a high saturated fat content is a direct cause for heart disease. That has never been proven and infact recent high quality studies have mixed results on the link between the two. There were even studies that showed that saturated fat didn't increase the risk of heart disease, but may be linked to lower risk of other disease like obesity, type 2 diabetes and high blood pressure (logical as fat increase satiety preventing overeating). People with certain medical conditions that causes cholestrol irregularities (like problems with liver or gall bladder) may need to monitor their fat intake, but healthy people don't need to be so terrified of saturated fat. The improper metabolizing of saturated fat is what causes problems, not normal metabolization because you need cholesterol to function properly. The whole hysteria around saturated fat was created by the sugar industry, based only on correlation. This was done deliberately to increase the demand and B2B sale of sugar based on packaged food chemistry, for fat appeals to human taste and if you demonize fat out of demand, low fat food products can only become palatable with increasing sugar content. High sugar-low fat is also a profitable combination as sugar is addictive while fat satisfies you and stops you from eating more. Just look at the nutritional details of any popular packaged food that's marketed as low fat, it will most definitively have added sugar.

[@SuperHarryBird]

Sorry, but there is many studies showing the health benefits of coconut oil. Eventhough coconut oil is rich in saturated fats. It contains a lot of lauric acid(45-53%) and myristic acid. Due to which it is similar to olive oil in increasing bad cholesterol(but both statistically insignificant) But it increases good cholesterol by 15%(three times olive oil(5%)). But these good effects of coconut oil seems to be mainly for the cold pressed variety or by usage of whole coconut flesh. The regular hot pressed coconut oil is just like other vegetable oils. But the best option for us is to use a set of different oils for different functions eg: coconut oil/ rice bran for cooking, extra virgin Olive oil for salads etc. Don't stick to one oil, better to get many in smaller quanities.

[@z.deutch1334]

Saturated fats *do not* cause narrowing of the arteries via cholesterol. Arterial plaque (which leads to narrowing) begins in the endothelium (inner wall) of the blood vessel. When damage occurs in the (from smoking, high blood pressure diabetes, stress, obesity, wear & tear etc), the body repairs the tear by using cholesterol, calcium and other cellular materials to seal the damage. The accumulation of these materials causes the endothelium to thicken. Over time, as more plaques develop, the vessels narrow further. However, that alone does not necessarily cause heart attacks of strokes. If the fibrous caps of these plaques in arterial vessels break open, that's when they can cause blockages - leading to heart attacks or strokes.

[@z.deutch1334]

PS. Cholesterol is made by the body even if you consume less of it via food. Cholesterol is in all our cell membranes, it is used in repair mechanisms, it is required to produce hormones, it is needed by our brains and muscles, and a whole myriad of other bodily functions. Eating saturated fat isn't going to make huge impacts on cholesterol levels because your body will produce it regardless. *As polyunsaturated oil consumption have risen, and the rates of blood cholesterol have lowered around the world (due to widespread statin use) heart disease rates have not dropped. This puts the saturated fat = cholesterol = heart disease hypothesis into question*

The fat in coconut oil is metabolized quickly and it also helps you to stay slim and lose weight when taken in moderation. To me I heard that heating olive oil increases the cholesterol u get from it? The cheaper oils normally have GMOs so that's why ppl pay for premium oils and I guess how the oil is manufactured makes it have a better quality and nutrients density. Palm oil, vegetable oil and the things they use for vegetable oil contribute to obesity so I don't know how they are better at unsaturated fats other than being cheap.

Palm oil can't be all that bad... because its cold pressed too.. but not good for the environment thats why its cheap

@@poplimk how is it bad for the environment? With the same amount plot of land, palm trees can produce palm fruits that can be turned to palm oil, 10x quantity compared to other types of oil. All parts of palm trees can be used.

@@dukunas911 yea i am also puzzled as humans will need oil from somewhere. If not palm oil then what?

[@dukunas911]

@@poplimk palm oil usually is not cold pressed. Palm oil naturally has high smoke point, so its usually used as frying oil. Cold pressed process is more expensive, and need to be stored well. Frying cold pressed oils defeat the process of cold pressed process.

You are so bias against the coconut oil.. here in Asia before any of the oils you mentioned, coconut oil is primarily the oil being used for decades and yet some of the folks live as much as 90-100 years. It is only now that new oils were introduced and cardiovascular diseases are on the rise. Is the report for advertisement and endorsement purposes only? So people will go to "nitritious" oils regardless how much will be drawn from the pocket? Don't mislead people through your reporting. I don't think people need to rely on just one person saying that coconut oil is bad for your health. I think coconut oil manufacturers should sue CNA for this report without taking into consideration about other research on coconut oils as well as detrimental to company's product.

[@romeovelasco4151]

I think there is something wrong in this research. Coconut oil even if saturated is not bad as they claim. Frying all kinds of oil makes the oil change its chemical structures and that makes it dangerous to consume. Re-using oil is the worse practice. Somebody is protecting their business when they say that coconut oil is bad...

Thoughts! Saturated fat means stable fats which are more resistant to oxidation, thus reducing free radicals in the body keeping inflammation at bay. Saying that saturated fats are bad for our body is misinformation. Mother nature provides us with natural oil to use such as lard, tallow, coconut oil, avocado oil which are all high in saturated fats which are required by body for brain function. Man made oils which they called vegetable oils are not made from vegetables but from seeds which when the oil is extracted from becomes quickly oxidized thus leading to inflammation within the body when consumed on a daily basis. Rules: use oils that are solid at room temperature (21 degrees celcius) for cooking such as animal fats and coconut oil. Olive oil and avocado oil for salads.

[@TurretShooter]

You need more research about the saturated fats of coconut oil.

[@warrenlauzon5315]

So much wrong info here.

[@hotdrumchick]

WOW... I thank Yah that I am not dead! I use canola oil to fry with, and I use it at least 4 times before I change it (it turns a caramel color). I keep it in the fridge thinking it would be safer than in the cabinet, but that obviously doesn't help, lol. I am going to throw out the oil I have now and monitor the NEW oil I use!

[@Sg-gs]

If you follow the ways of Yah, I recommend a channel called Parable of the Vineyard. There was a fellow brother in the wall who has done much research about food and how we keep our temple clean. He also talks about oils as well. I used to think canola oil is good and would only use canola and has since stopped. Now I’m cooking with avocado and coconut oil. I also use butter and olive oil as other sources of fat as well

Good on you. Saturated fat always get attacked by vegetable oils producers and other oils producers. The fact is, before 1960s (before vegetable oils become common) people are healthier. There are rarely case of diabetes, obesity, heart attack and other common epidemic illness now. Those illness stated before linked very closely to what they smeared saturated fats are responsible for.

There is strong correlation for palm oil consumption with heart disease.
