IIN's mission statement

Our mission is to play a crucial role in improving health and happiness, and through that process, create a ripple effect that transforms the world.

Substitutes for Trans-Fats

Oils are stable if amount of Omega 3 fatty acid (ALA) is reduced. Canola oil, sunflower oil, soybean oil can be used in deep frying.

Substitutes for solid trans fats

Palm oil or coconut oil. These are higher in saturated fat. Other alternatives are butter, lard, fully hydrogenated vegetable oil, which is 100% saturated fat and no trans fat.

Slightly increase risk for heart disease. All carbon atoms are saturated with hydrogen molecules. Mostly animal food and tropical oils. Solid at room temperature.

Almost twice as bad as saturated fat on gram per gram basis using LDL/HDL ratio - reduces HDL (good) cholesterol. Greatly increase risk for coronary heart disease.

Partially hydrogenated vegetable oil. Unsaturated fats that have been saturated with hydrogen like margarine. Don't go rancid (like omegas) if on shelf too long because they are more stable.

Mostly plant sources. Only some of carbon molecules have hydrogen attached. Decrease risk of T2 Diabetes.

Fish, corn, soybean oil. Liquid when chilled and at room temp. Omega 3s appear to decrease the risk of coronary artery disease. They may also protect against irregular heartbeats and help lower blood pressure levels.
