Trans Fat Q&A

Study of Trans Fats
Researchers conducting the Harvard Nurses' Health Study drew blood samples from more than 32,000 women and also surveyed them on their diet and lifestyle habits. The women were followed for 6 years to see who developed heart attacks. After controlling for such factors as diabetes, body weight, and alcohol consumption, the team saw a clear link: "The higher the intake of trans fats, the higher the blood levels, and the higher the heart disease risk," says study leader Frank Hu, an associate professor of nutrition and epidemiology at Harvard School of Public Health. Trans fats earned their bad reputation by raising "bad" LDL cholesterol and lowering "good" HDL cholesterol. The average intake for those with the highest blood levels was about 4 grams of trans fats per day..

Lower Your Trans Fat Intake
Cholesterol screenings and other routine blood tests can't measure the amount of trans fats in a person's blood, but the study adds to the case for strictly limiting intake to reduce cardiovascular diseases. The American Heart Association recommends keeping trans fats under 1 percent of your total calories, or a maximum of 2 grams a day in a 2,000-calorie diet. That means avoiding anything with partially hydrogenated oils, such as margarine. Choose monounsaturated fats found in olive oil and canola oil, recommends Robert Eckel, last president of the American Heart Association and a professor of medicine at the University of Colorado at Denver and Health Sciences Center.

Top Ten Trans Fats

Colon Cleansing
Your key to optimal health starts with a colon cleansing. A lifestyle that includes taking medications of any kind, eating too much cooked food, processed, or refined food, meat, dairy, and poultry causes your body to become congested with mucus. This weakens the function of your digestive system, elimination organs such as the colon, liver, and kidneys. Changing your diet to include foods which help cleanse your body and using herbal preparations to speed up the process, creates dramatic improvement in your state of health quickly.
