How your health will benefit from using good fat and a right combination of fat
types, and how you will be hurt by bad fat or a bad fat balance
The fat types and their effects
High consume of fat or of
the combination fat and carbohydrates causes obesity, heart disease and other
health problems.. However the different types of fat have very different effects
on the health. Here is a survey of the different fat cathegories and their
effects:
Mono-unsaturated fat - Most of this fat
found in food sources are of the type
omega-9-mono-unsaturated. - This type of fat prevents heart disease and circulatory
disease in moderate amounts. This type of fat also prevents heart disease and
reduces inflammatory reactions. Therefore it reduces the
risk of cancer, intestinal inflammations and rheumatism.
Omega-6-poly-unsaturated fat
- This fat type prevents heart disease if you do
not consume too much of it. However it causes inflammatory reactions. This type
of reactions are benign when they are moderate and when they are provoked to
fight disease. But a constant high inflammatory response is dangerous, and can
cause rheumatism, heart trouble and cancer. A very high consumption of this type
of fat is therefore dangerous.
Omega-3-poly-unsaturated fat - This type of fat prevents heart disease and
reduces inflammatory reactions in moderate amounts. Therefore it also reduces
the risk of cancer, intestinal inflammations and rheumatism.
Saturated fat - This type of fat is probably not dangerous in small amounts. In
higher amounts, saturated fat gives high cholesterole levels, causes clogging of
the blood vessels, cause coronary heart disease and increases the risk of
infarctation of the heart and other organs.
Cholesterole - Cholesterole is a fat-like compound found in the food, but also syntisized from saturated fat by the body. High intake of saturated fat or of cholesterole itself, therefore elevates the cholesterole level in the body. Cholesterole is a neccessary compund, but in higher amounts it causes clogging of the blood vessels, causes coronary heart disease and increases the risk of infarctation of the heart and other organs.
Hardened fat
- Originally unsaturated and fluid fat is often hardened
to give it wanted mechanical properties before it is used in food production.
When fat is hardened, hydrogen is added by chemical processes so that the fat
gets more saturated and thereby hardened. By this process many types of fatty
molecules will be produced that are not naturally occuring and therefor bad for
the health. By these posesses much of the fatty acids will also be converted to
trans-fat.
Trans-fat
- In fatty acid molecules that are unsaturated, the
differnt part of the molecules are held geometrically rigid in coordination to
each other. In a cis-form, that is the natural form, the orientation is such
that two parts of the molecule are curved in the same direction. In a trans-form,
the molecule is twisted so that two parts of the molecules are curved in
opposite directions.
This type of fat is produced by chemical processing to yield specific mechanical properties. Usually one add hydrogen to poly-unsaturated fat to yield fat with less saturation, and the processing will convert many of the cis-molecules to trans-form at the same time.
Margarine often contains this type of fat. This type of fat is dangerous, and is a probably a causal component for heart disease and cancer. There is however one exception: Some amount of fat containing the trans acid conjugated linoleic acid seem to be benevolent for the skin health and may help reduce weight. Conjugated linoleic acid is found in milk and butter.
Common problems of the average diet
The average American and European diet generally contains too much fat and
carbohydrates combined. The fat consumed is generally a mixture of hardened fat, trans fat,
saturated fat and omega-6-poly-usaturated fat. This fat misconsume causes
overweight and is probably a major contributing component for the incidence of
heart disease, cancer, intestinal inflammatory diseases, rheumatism and other
inflammatory conditions.
Recommanded amount of fat in the diet
A common advice is to let 25-30 % of the energy needed be covered by fat, and
the rest by carbohydrates. However, experts do not agree at his point. Some
recommand a low carbohydrate diet with more fat, and others recommand a high
carbohydrate diet with a low fat amount.
In either case, the combined intake of fat and carbohydrates should not be much
higher than your daily energy consumption if you have a normal or wanted weight.
If you want to loose weight, this combined amount must be lower. If you want to
gain weight, it should be higher.
The right mixture of fat types
The right mixture of different fat types is as important as the amount of fat
in the diet to keep good health. However, you must not take the percent ratios
given here too literally, since there is much unagreement about the exact ratios
that should be recommanded. Furthermore, if you have an active lifestyle that
demands much energy, this is best achieved by increasing the amount of
carbohydrates and mono-unsaturated fat.
Mono-unsaturated fat
- Ideally as much as 35% of the fat consumated should be
from this type of fat. You can find this fat in olives, canola, rape, almonds,
peanuts, cashew, pecan, hickory nuts, hazel nuts, pistachio, macadamia, filbert,
avocado and oils form these sources.
Olive oil, canola oil, rape oile and other of these oil types are good for hot cooking and gentle frying, since they are fairly stable against heating and exposure to air.
Omega-3-poly-unsaturated fat - 20 % of the fat consume should be from this type. You find it in fat fish, fish oil, seafood, other marine oils, flaxseeds, flaxseed oil, perilla and perilla oil.
If you suffer from inflammatory conditions like rheumatism and intestinal inflammation, you will probably benefit from increasing the amount of this fat type, and reduce the amount of other fat types.
Omega-3-oils shoild not be used
for hot cooking and frying. You should add them to the food after the warm
cooking or take them with a tablespoon as a supplement. You should also keep
them locked away from the air. They easily get oxidized or otherwise
chemically altered by exposure to heat and oxygen. By such degradation, these
fat types will convert to harmful substances.
Omega-6-poly-unsaturated fat
- 30 % of the fat taken in should be from this
fat type. You find it in sunflower, safflower, grape seed, cotton seed, soy,
walnut, corn, sesame, wheat germ and oils from these sources.
Soy oil and other of these oils
can be used in warm cooking, but not for frying. These oils are also susceptible
for heat and air exposure, but much less so than omega-6.oils. Therefore they
can tolereate cooking, but not frying.
Saturated fat
- Not more than 15 % of the fat consumption should be saturated
fat. Saturated fat is found in fat from mammals, coconut fat and in milk.
Cholesterole - The
cholesterole level in the body depends upon the combined amount of consumed
cholesterole itself and saturated fat. To keep the cholesterole level right, you
should not consume too much saturated fat, and not very much of food containing
cholesterole, like eggs and spawn.
Trans-fat and hardened fat - This type of fat should ideally not be a part of the diet at all.
Margarine, cookies, snacks and often also bread contain this type of fat. It is
therefore important to reduce the consume of margarine, cookies, snacks, and to
check the composition of the bread you consume.
Conjugated linoleic acid
- This
is perhaps the only trans fat acid that is benevolent in some amuont. It is found in natural
milk fat, and you can buy dietary supplements of this substance. A small amount
of this substance may help keep your skin healthy and may help you to reduce
weight.
Some fatty acid chemistry
A fatty acid molecule consists of a chain of carbon atom. To the carbon atoms are attached hydrogen atoms. At one end, there is a carboxylic group -c=o(oh). The other end is called the omega (w)-end. The carbon atoms are numbered form the omega-end. Each carbon atom has 4 bonds. These bonds are used to bind the carbon atoms together, and to attach hydrogen atoms to the carbon atoms.
If the chain has attached the maximal number of hydrogen atoms to the carbon atoms, the fatty acid is called saturated or alifatic.
However, a hydrogen atoms on two neighbour carbon atoms can miss, and then there will be a double bound between these atoms. Several pairs of neighbour carbon atom can miss hydrogen atoms and have double bonds between themselves. Such a fatty acid is called unsaturated. If there is one double bond, they are called mono-usaturated. When there are more than one double bonds, they are called poly-usaturated.
Usaturated acids are classified according to which atom the first double bond goes from. A omega-3 acid has the forst double bond at the carbomn atom 3. In a omega-6-fatty acid, the first double bond is at the carbon atom 6, and in a omega-9-acid the first double bond is situated at carbon atom 9.
Let us look at the most important fatty acids in the diet:
Linoleic acid: This is a omega-6-acid with 18 carbon atoms and with 2 double bonds with two sigle bond between each double bond.
Alfa-Linoleic acid: This is a omega-3-poly-unsaturated acid with 18 carbon atoms, with 3 double bonds with two sigle bonds between each double bond.
Oleic acid: This is a omega-9-mono-unsaturated acid with 18 carbon atoms and with 1 double bond. .
The listed acids are found in plant sources, and the body can make all necessary other acids from them.
However, there are two omega-3 acids that are found in fish and seafood, that should be supplied, because a diet rich in these acidw are good for the circulatory health, those are:
Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA): This is a omega-3-poly-unsaturated acid with 20 carbon atoms and with 5 double bonds with two sigle bonds between each double bond.
Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA): This is a omega-3-poly-unsaturated acid with 22 carbon atoms and with 6 double bonds with two sigle bonds between each double bond.
Sis and trans fatty acids
Two carbon atoms with a double bond between them, have one hydrogen atom attached each. The hydrogen atoms can be at the same side in each carbon atom, and the binding is then called a sis-binding. The hydrogen atoms can also be on the opposite sides, and then the binding is called a trans-binding.
A fatty asid with only sis-bindings is called a sis-acid, and one with only trans-bindings is called a trans-acid. The molecules of a sis-acid are folded or scrolled together, and this makes them more easily floating. tthan trans-acids.
Most natural fatty acids are of the sis-types. By chemical processing, much trans-acids are produced, and these have been found to be very dangerous for the health.
However one trans-acid occur naturally, and seem to be healthy in small quantities - conjugated linoleic acid.
In most natural fatty acids, all the bindings are of the sis-type, and they are therefore called sis-fatty acids.
The best sources of omega-6-oils
Marine animals are generally concidered to be the best sources of these types of oils because they contain EPA and DHA. Vegetabile sources like flax seeds contain most alfa-linoleic acid.
Fish oils, fish liver oils, crill oils and oister oils are examples of marine sources of omega-6.
The oil you buy should de well refined, but should have been extracted in a cautious manner without being exposed to oxygen, heat and light so that it has not get oxidiced and thereby rancid.
Some producents tend tyo blend marine oils with cheaper saturated fat. Beware of unserious products faked that way. Generally the more expensive products are the best.
It should come from sources which are not polluted by toxic chemicals like heavy metals. It should also be packed in sealed dark oxygen-free containers or bottles like plastic bottles , be kept cool during transport and stored cool to avoid degradation by oxydation.
Crill oil is generally concidered to be the very best of all of these sources because it does not so easily get oxidiced, and because it has a total composition that is the very best to help lower the cholesterole level and because crill have small levels of pollutant in themselves.
Of fishes small fishes like herring, salmon, trout and cod are concidered better than big fishes like tunas as sources for omega-6 because tunas accumulate more pollutants during their life that small fishes.
