Death by Hydrogenated Oils To start off, we need to understand what an essential fatty acid is. EFA’s or (essential fatty acids), are a form of fat that our bodies and brains need to keep us healthy. Every cell in our bodies need these EFA’s to function normally. We have to consume these fatty acids in our foods because our body cannot produce them, this is why they are called (essential). EFA’s are "good" fat without EFA’s in your diet, you could not think, see, hear, reproduce, run or even move a muscle. That being said, you may be asking what does Hydrogenated oils have to do with EFA’s? Click here for more information on EFA’s Hydrogenated oils are highly refined by an industrial process of forcing a hydrogen molecule into the molecule chain thereby changing its structure to that of an EFA (essential fatty acid), and contain toxic by-products as well as trans-fatty acids. Trans-fatty acids are fat molecules with chemically altered structures, which have several detrimental effects on the body. Trans-fatty acids interfere with the absorption of healthy EFA’s because the body uses the trans-fatty acid where it should be using the EFA's, and contributes to atherosclerosis, or damage to the arteries and many other health problems, some yet to be discovered. Deep-fried foods, which are cooked in oil that is altered by very high temperatures, also contain trans-fatty acids. Many health professionals, including those at the World Heath Organization, have protested against the use of hydrogenated oils in food and the consumption of trans-fatty acids. Health conditions linked to the consumption of trans-fatty acids and hydrogenated oils include cancer, heart disease, high cholesterol, diabetes (just a 2% increase in trans-fats calories boosts your risk of diabetes by 39%), obesity, immune system disorders, decreased sperm counts, infant development problems, Alzheimer's, allergies, multiple sclerosis, liver disease and much more! For decades, food companies (and even our own government) have lied to us about Hydrogenated oils, telling us it was not merely safe, but actually better for your health than sources of fat like butter and other animal fat. We now know this was a global deception, a blatant attempt to get people to buy their high-profit products like margarine, shortening and snack foods. Hydrogenated oils were first introduced in 1911 by Mazola oil. So now we have been digesting this stuff for 3 or 4 generations! Is it any wonder that our children are now being born without the ability to absorb the essential nutrients needed for the body and brain or even life!! Just one example: Fact, Up until about 1980, about one in 20,000 kids had autism. One OUT OF 166 children now being born in the US are being diagnosed with AUTISM!!! Let's see what's that rate increase? SCARY is what it is! But sadly not surprising, as EFA’s are known as brain food, even recommended for children with ADD/ADHD (Attention Focus). Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, World Health Organization and Institute of Medicine have stated there is no evidence vaccines cause autism. Although there is no doubt that the mercury in vaccines cause health problems, we need to look at the bigger picture, chemical preservatives, dyes, artificial flavorings, additives of all kinds in our FOOD. And then there’s the stuff you don’t see on the label, fertilizers, herbicides, pesticides. Even a glass of good cold milk now days contains hormones, pesticide residue, and who knows what else! If we are WHAT WE EAT, aren’t our children WHAT WE ATE? If we don’t practice good nutrition how can we expect to have healthy children?. Is it too late? What will happen if another 2 or 3 generations consume hydrogenated oils? It's so hard to go to the grocery and try to buy foods that don't contain it, reading labels on everything you buy takes forever, but never the less must to be done!
