Health and Fitness - Eat the right fats:
Make healthy choices when it comes to fats.
When choosing cooking oils, choose ones high in mono-unsaturated fats and low in saturated fats.
Oils with high levels of mono-unsaturated fats include olive oil, almond oil and canola oil. Essential fatty acids (EFA's) like Omega-3 fatty acids are also very important to include your nutritional plan.
Salmon and albacore tuna are great sources of omega-3 fatty acids.
Omega-3 fatty acids appear to help prevent and treat various disorders in different ways.
Research suggests that individuals with non-insulin-dependent (or type 2) diabetes, omega-3s can improve insulin sensitivity.
Omega-3 fatty acids have been shown to play a part in keeping cholesterol levels low, stabilizing an irregular heart beat (arrhythmia), and reducing blood pressure.
