Oils, Nuts and Seeds are fats. We all are concerned about weight gain and weight loss, and we think that fat is our foe. The truth is that good health and normal weight cannot be maintained without an adequate amount of quality fat in the diet.
There are 3 types of fats: saturated, monounsaturated and polyunsaturated. Saturated fats include all meat fats, dairy products, palm and coconut oil and the man-made hydrogenated oils. Monounsaturated fatty acids can be found in olive oil, canola oil and peanut oil. The polyunsaturates are the Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids. Omega-3 are fish oils and flax seed oils. Black currant seed oil represent Omega-6 oils.
Tho maintain health, the body needs all three types of fats. Fats serve many vital functions in the body, like facilitate oxygen transport, lubricate muscles and organs, aid the absorption of vitamins, nourish skin and nerves, help maintain body temperature.
The important thing to know about oils is that you should use unrefined ones. It is also advisable to refrigerate them and hide from the light. You also want to refrigerate nuts and seeds and soak them overnight in water to make them more digestible.
Super Omega 3-6-9 1200 mg 180 sgels is a great great supplement. It contains all 3 types of fats.
Stay healthy,
