As I’m sure you know, not all oils are created equal in terms of nutrient content, caloric content, and heat tolerance (AKA smoke point ) A specific aldehyde is created when an oil begins to smoke, called Acrolein. It is the product of the oil-degrading/breaking down when overheated, and, like most aldehydes, is toxic to humans due to its reactive nature. The longer an oil is heated, the higher the risk for Acrolein to form. ... So what can we do to prevent the consumption and creation of these toxic aldehydes in our food? Know the smoke points of your oils and cook accordingly. The higher the smoke point the less likely your oil will produce aldehydes. Your best option is good old fashioned olive oil. Regular olive oil has a high smoke point and is also high in antioxidants. Reduce your consumption of fast food fried foods. The oil fryers in many fast food joints will fry with the same oil for the full working day. This is a long time for these oils to be placed under high heat and puts them at a higher risk of aldehyde formation. ______________________________________ If you have any questions leave them in the comments below!

Carb density is the percentage of your food that is made up of carbs In nature, these carbs are accompanied by fibre to slow the breakdown of carbs which ensures your blood sugars don’t spike. The more fiber, the less blood sugar spike, which means less inflammation and a happy healthy environment for your good gut bacteria. In nature, no food exists that exceeds a 30% carb density. ... why is that important? Many foods including chips, crackers, pasta, and bread that claim to be healthy, vegan, and/or gluten-free are processed to remove fiber leaving just the carbohydrate. This may lead to increased inflammatory processes in your body, destroy your good gut bacteria, and impair your ability to digest. But there is good news! A simple calculation can tell you whether your healthy chickpea pasta alternative is as healthy as it claims! The calculation is based on the serving size provided on the package label: (total carbs in 1 serving - the fiber content of one serving) / total weight serving For example, Liviva Organic Black Bean Spaghetti has: 20 g/serving carbohydrates 9 g/serving fiber 50 g total/serving The calculation is as follows: (20-9) / 50 = .22 = 22% This gluten-free alternative has a carb density below 30% and is, therefore, an excellent gluten-free alternative! ______________________________________ if you have any questions leave them in the comments below!
