Do you need salt to flavor your meals? Not really, because the desire of salt in food is an acquired taste. Salt is everywhere, on crackers, waffles, chicken breast, granola bars, syrup, wheat bread, pita bread, salad, cottage cheese.

Fat

All fats are bad!

Polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fatty acids can help reduces LDL cholesterol.

The bad fat! Processed fats are created by hydrogenation (a process that converts unsaturated fatty acids become partly saturated). These fats can increase the risk of heart problems.

= Good fats are monounsaturated Examples: oil, olive oil, olives, avocado, canola

Oils = polyunsaturated vegetable oil, wheat germ, fish blue fish

Saturated fats = bad examples: fatty meats, poultry skin, butter, cream cheese,

Trans fats = cookies, cakes, donuts, pastries

Saturated fat is fat!

The regulation of the intake of trans fatty acids

Nutrition Committee of the American Heart Association strongly recommends that healthy Americans over age two limit their intake of trans fats to less than one percent of total calories. Based on current data, the American Heart Association recommends that consumer follow these tips:

Choose a diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole foods rich in fiber and fat-free or low-fat milk more often.

Keep total fat intake among 25 and 35 percent of calories, with most fats coming from sources of monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, such as fish, nuts, seeds and vegetable oils more often.

Use of the unnatural hydrogenated vegetable oils such as canola, safflower, sunflower or olive oil more often.

Look processed non-hydrogenated oil instead of hydrogenated vegetable oils or saturated fats or partly hydrogenated foods.

Use soft margarine as a substitute for butter, and choose soft margarine (liquid or tub varieties) over harder stick forms. Look for "0 g trans fat" on the nutrition label.

French fries, donuts, cookies, crackers, muffins, pies and cakes are examples of foods that are high in trans fat. Do not eat frequently.

Limit saturated fats in your diet. If you do not eat a lot of saturated fat, not eat a lot of trans fat.

Limit fried foods and commercial baked goods made with shortening or partly hydrogenated vegetable oils. Not only are these foods very high in fat, but fat is also likely to be very hydrogenated, which means a lot of trans fat.

Fast food fried Limited. Shortening and commercial frying fats will continues to be made by hydrogenation and contain saturated fats and trans fats.
