Hi teacher Janet Is it true that many scientists nowadays found that good saturated fats such as coconut oil, animal fats and butter are good for health, while unsaturated fats ( polyunsaturated fats )such as vegetable oils used for cooking are unhealthy? Polyunsaturated fats like seed oils are unstable during cooking. And all the common oils we use for cooking are processed by many chemical substances because seed oil and other vegetable oils have little or no oil in themselves. Examples of good unsaturated oils are olive and avocado oil, while good saturated oils are coconut oil. Their similarity is there are oils inside olive, coconut and avocado. The high consumption of daily unsaturated oil leads to high Omega-6 fatty acids in our body and low omega-3 fatty acids since we don't consume enough saturated fats and good monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats daily. The long-term imbalance of Omega-6 and Omega-3 leads to many health problems. Some articles state that more scientific research shows no proof that saturated fats will cause heart attacks and strokes. While diabetes nowadays is mainly caused by the high consumption of carbs in many forms. Eating too many highly processed foods and consuming a lot of carbs( refined carbs ) from bread, rice, noodles and cakes cause insulin resistance. Diets like the ketogenic diet are becoming popular these days with more people willing to try it, along with intermittent fasting, to cut down carbs and overcome insulin problems in our bodies. In addition, saturated fats are encouraged in ketogenic diets, like ghee, butter and coconut oil. So far this is what I know from reading, watching and researching. I am now trying intermittent fasting and cutting down carbs like rice, noodles and bread which I used to eat a lot by consuming more vegetables, good fats and fewer carbs. And I also find something interesting. When we say that fried and oily food is unhealthy, I personally think that it is not the unsaturated fats like butter inside the food that are unhealthy but the oils used to make this food are mainly seeds or vegetable oils ( repeatedly used during frying ). These food also contains trans fats. So, instead of stating the problem of saturated fats in fried food, I personally think the problem comes from the high Omega-6 fatty acids from the cooking oils and also the trans fat!! and refined carbs!!

Hi Lay man...hmm interesting comment..you have really done some research into the recent findings on fats..Thanks for the detailed write-up. I agree with you on most points like the importance of balancing intake of Omega 3 n 6 fatty acids..thus the importance of eating fish oils containing Omega 3 fatty acids (DHA and EPA) which are polyunsaturated oils. Also the bad effects of trans fats. I actually wrote a long comment here but accidentally closed this page so everything was deleted. Well, better write in short paragraphs. Firstly, the BIO syllabus is not updated to include the recent findings on OMEGA 3 and 6 fatty acids and transfats. So we hv to stick to the textbk facts as the marking scheme and answers are based on the textbk and past year answers as far as is possible. Will type more on saturated fats when i hv time.
