In Russia, vegetable oil is extremely popular – it is added to salads, meat, vegetables are fried on it, put into dough, and so on. However, some oils, as doctors warn, can be harmful to health.
The benefits of vegetable oils are great.
- We get from them essential nutrients and energy,
- They normalize the digestive tract,
- Oils protect the body from systemic inflammation.
One of the most common uses for vegetable oil is frying. As nutritionist Rory Bug points out, not all types of oils are a good option for this. Some are high in omega-6 fatty acids, which in excess can harm the body.
—Foods fried in vegetable oil can, over time, trigger the process of atherosclerosis (hardening and blockage of the arteries), leading to blood clots. And heating these and other fats can change their chemical structure, as a result of which plaques form and blood vessels suffer,– the expert explains.
The expert does not advise frying with corn, soybean, sunflower, rapeseed oil. Olive oil is best suited, because even with strong heating, they do not change their composition.
Atherosclerosis is the process of deposition of cholesterol in the wall of blood vessels, which causes the formation of atherosclerotic plaques that cause narrowing of the artery.
Symptoms of atherosclerosis:
- chest pain;
- shortness of breath;
- frequent headaches;
- tinnitus;
- significantly reduced performance;
- fatigue syndrome;
- blood pressure rises.
When atrosclerosis is prohibited:
- butter, animal fat, lard, margarines;
- meat with fat, sausages, sausages, pates;
- fatty broths;
- offal;
- whole milk, cream, sour cream, fatty cottage cheese;
- fatty cheeses.
Some nutritionists advise not to give up the usual oils, but to mix them. For example, olive and linen blend well – the proportion is 1: 1.
What oil is best for frying?
- Coconut oil, both refined and unrefined.
- Olive oil refined
- With avocado oil.
