Document Summary
*exams will be based on articles and slides! Comparison of dietary fats: safflower and canola oil have the highest omega-9 content, coconut oil is huge in saturated fat (maybe it"s not so good for you? ) Resistance training is not what will help will this. Maintaining a healthy body weight and not smoking will also help with blood fats. Interesting evidence in studies that promote dairy products by demoting other foods groups sponsored by dairy companies like danone: tei = total energy intake. Canadian, european, and american dietary reference intakes (dri) say 20-35% of calories should be from fat. Canadian and european dri says sfa should be as low as possible. American dri says less than 10% should be from sfa: with keto diets, people are losing weight but with the increased fat consumption, the inside of their blood vessels are not looking good. Also lose a lot of muscles due to the little cho consumption.
