March 6, 2009, Newsletter Issue #157: The benefits of healthy oils
1
Tip of the Week
There are quite a few oils that are very beneficial for health. Olive oil traditionally is an important part of Mediterranean group of diets, which health benefits are being broadly discussed.
The beneficial effects of olive oil are due to its high content of monounsaturated - "good" fats protecting against heart disease and colon cancer, reducing "bad" cholesterol while raising the "good" cholesterol levels.
Another group of healthy oil is tree nut oils. A good example is Macadamia oil. Research showed that this oil can fight blood clotting, inflammation, high blood pressure and heart disease and also a few kinds of cancer. A valuable oil is walnut and flaxseed oils. They contain alpha-linolenic acid, which can become omega-3 in the body.
Omega-3 (and omega-6) are essential fatty acids because they are critical for good health. Eskimo people in Greenland, though eating foods that are very high in fat, have lower levels of heart disease, rheumatoid arthritis, diabetes, and psoriasis than the European because their habitual foods - first of all cold-water fish - are rich in omega-3 fats.
Many groceries now offer omega-3 margarine (free of very "bad" trans-fats) and even omega-3 eggs laid by hens fed on flaxseed.
