POMEGA5 skin care in now available at FutureNatural


Just because some fats have a bad reputation doesn’t mean they’re all bad. Fats make up 60 percent of the brain and are vital to proper nerve function. They are building blocks for hormones and for the membranes that surround every cell in the body. Fats are not to be avoided – only too much fat or the wrong kind.

The best oil for everyday use is extra-virgin olive oil. The worst fat (check snack and convenience food labels especially for this one) is hydrogenated, partially hydrogenated or “trans” fat.

These are vegetable oils that have been manipulated at the molecular level to remain solid at room temperature. Artificially hardened by the food industry, these “fake fats” cannot be expected to perform delicate functions at a cellular level like naturally occurring fats.

Hydrogenated oils top the avoid list for another reason – they contribute even more to the risk of heart disease than saturated animal fat. (If you don’t have to stir your peanut butter to mix in the oil, it is hydrogenated – use old fashioned peanut butter instead.)

One of the fats that is often deficient in the modern diet and is vital is Omega-5 fatty acid. Omega 5 is extracted form the seed of pomegranates.

Another is Omega 3 fish oil. A good source is fish oil supplements* as well as cold water fish such as sardines or wild (not farm-raised) salmon. (*The best source is www.nordicnaturals.com)

Flax oil or ground flax seeds can also supply Omega-3 but require enzymatic conversion. The conversion to Omega-3 is impaired by magnesium, zinc and vitamin B6 deficiency, aging, alcohol, trans fatty acids, high cholesterol levels and Scandinavian ancestry.
