If you are looking to lose weight and get ripped abs you need to know what to eat but also what not to eat. There are good fats and bad fats. Most people, however, do not know which fats are the bad ones that they need to avoid. Here you will discover the fats to absolutely stay away from. These fats will destroy your weight loss and body toning efforts.
You do need to eat healthy fats to lose weight and build muscle. The problem begins when you do not know what fats to stay away from, as they can be deadly. Here is a list of the fats to avoid like the plague.
Hydrogenated oils
These oils were originally produced to harden soap. Later, they were introduced into the food chain to harden substances like margarine at room temperature. The hydration process consists of subjecting oil to extremely high pressure and temperature, adding in some solvents such as hexane for extraction and some bleaching and deodorizing agents and there you have it. These hydrogenated oils have been connected to obesity, heart disease, diabetes, cancer and more bad stuff.
Even small quantities of 1-2 grams of trans fats per day can be dangerous. Fast food French fries can contain as much as 5 grams, yuck! Stay away from anything that contains hydrogenated oil, partially hydrogenated oil and fractionated oil or trans fats.
Refined oils
Watch for refined oils as they are subjected to high temperature, high pressure, solvent extraction, deodorizing and bleaching processes. Refined oils can be labeled soybean oil, corn oil, cottonseed oil, safflower oil, vegetable oil or even canola oil. If it has been subjected to processing, it could have been damaged which will cause it to lose its antioxidant properties. Anything deep-fried in oil such as fried chicken, tortilla chips, potato chips, French fries, donuts and chicken nuggets should be avoided for this reason.
Homogenized milk fat
Milk fat is a healthy fat in its organic natural state. When milk is homogenized or pasteurized, it can become dangerous inside of the human body. Although it is very hard to find raw unprocessed milk, it is available from whole food stores or local dairies. As an alternative, try cultured dairy products such as unflavored yogurts.
Be careful of flavored yogurts as they may contain high concentrations of refined sugar or high fructose corn syrup. You may be able to find yogurts lightly sweetened with honey or real maple syrup or just get unflavored and add fresh strawberries or other fruit to sweeten it. If you cannot find raw fresh milk, skim milk would be a better option.
These are just a few of the unhealthy bad fats to avoid and yes, there is a list of the good fats available. |
