An unintended consequence of partial hydrogenation of the alkene groups in polyunsaturated oils is the isomerisation of a small proportion of the cis alkenes to trans alkenes. These are known as trans-fats and are of concern as they are believed to increase the risk of coronary heart disease. These trans-fats do occur naturally, although only to a small extent. Canola oil naturally has a relatively high level of trans-fats, but most other natural oils have very little trans-fat. Lamb and mutton also naturally contain moderate levels of trans-fats.

The Role of Fats in the Body and How to Make Healthy Choices
Fats are an essential nutrient that play a crucial role in our overall health and well-being. However, not all fats are created equal. #healthyfats #nutrition #healthychoices #healthylifestyle #foodblog #wellness #nutritiontips #healthyhabits #eatclean
Today we talk about fats and the role they pay in your daily eating habits. The Role of Fats in the Body Fats have long been portrayed as a bad dietary ingredient that is to blame for everything from heart disease to weight gain. However, the body requires particular types of fats to function properly, and not all fats are created equal. We’ll look at the role that fats play in the body and…

thick thighs SAVE LIVES.
when a cis woman is pregnant, her gluteofemoral fat is deposited into her developing baby's brain. fat continues to be deposited during nursing. the less fat deposited, the more the baby's brain development suffers. of all the primates, humans carry the most fat. We are the Fat Primate. We don't just carry fat for day to day support of our large brains, but for the very CREATION of those brains during pregnancy and nursing. long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (found in the butt and thigh region) are absolutely crucial for brain development, but they are very hard to come by in our diet, so cis female bodies start depositing them early just in case we want to be making babies later. it's.....humorous to me that so much talk of human evolution either speaks about human exceptionalism in vague terms or cuts out women entirely ("man the hunter" and the overemphasis on male tool use when female primates use tools at greater rates than males, see also our pseudo-scientific belief in a connection between intelligence and maleness when in fact there is no female brain or male brain) when cis female bodies and their cool fucking adaptions are responsible for giving us those large brains we're always bragging about. want to talk about our big brains? then cite your sources! the source in question here being women's body fat.
and then society turns around and goes, let's police women's fat and punish them for it and make them hate themselves so deeply that fatphobia becomes inextricable from our culture - all of this for one of the coolest most metal adaptions of all time that also arguably MADE us human.
fat is the coolest organ in the human body and I will not tolerate the hate.

Fat tip number 5 (pt 2): what type of fat should I eat?
Although there are many types of fat in foods such as: saturated fats, trans fat, mono saturated fat, polyunsaturated fat, and omega-3. The most important of the fats that we will be learning about are trans fat, saturated fat, and polyunsaturated fat. Now, why is this important, you may ask? Well, my piggies, this is a defining factor to whether or not you will be eating to an early grave.
Starting with the death piggies, the best fat you can enjoy and ensure your arteries get clogged up is to eat a bunch of trans fat and saturated fats. Starting with the best heart stopper of all: trans fats are well known for causing clogged blood vessels, heart complications, increased chance of insulin resistance, and inflammation. Some foods with trans fats include: fried food, cakes, ice cream, pizza, and microwave popcorn. Ya know, the process junk.
Saturated fats are much easier to find in everyday food, mainly comprised of animal fat, you only need to eat 25g of Saturated fat daily to be moderately healthy, to put this onto perspective on how easy it is to go above 25g... one apple fritter contains roughly 20-25g of Saturated fat, so just eating 2 will be above the recommended amount. Now this will only increase the rate of obesity but it will not kill you as fast compared to trans fat.
Now for some good and healthy fat! This is actually fairly straightforward, stay away from the unhealthy fats mentioned above and eat more veggies and meat. This will improve your overall health, and when eaten in excess, it will grow more subcutaneous fat which is very beneficial for you fatties!

You need to consume unsaturated fats or you'll feel slow, fatigued, and never want to do anything.
You have to learn the healthy fats and eat the healthy fats if you're committed to being vegetarian or vegan. Or you will be tired forever, and not the type of tired where you can push through it, but the type of tired where you feel like you have to stay in bed all day and your heart feels like it's being sucked through a straw.
Fatty acids are what lipids in our bodies are made mostly up of. Fatty acids are responsible for energy storage, brain development, blood clotting, and controlling inflammation. They are necessary for your body to be able to absorb vitamins such as vitamin A, D, E, and K. They are necessary for your body to produce sex hormones like testosterone and estrogen. Not having enough of these fats can cause muscle pain, night blindness, infertility, easy bruising, dry hair, hair loss, loose teeth, depression and anxiety, and dermatitis (presenting as dry and scaly rashes).
You need unsaturated fats such as monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats. These are good fats. Saturated fats and trans fats are bad, these are what raise your risk of heart attacks and strokes. Diets high in saturated fats might also lead to chronic pain.
35% of your caloric intake should be fats. This can be added to the list on why the diet industry is so cruel. Manufacturers and organizations paired with the pornography and cosmetic industry pushing dieting and beauty norms on women and girls for decades impressed the seriously dangerous and false idea that consuming fats was bad. Denying healthy fats means denying healthy brain development, energy and motivation, better ability to heal from injuries, and preventing depression and anxiety.
Balsamic and olive oil together (and you can add some minced garlic if you like) tastes fantastic with warm bread and can be made in 12 minutes.
Cooking with the oils above instead of butter can also introduce fatty acids in your diet (might not be enough though, you need 1-2 tablespoons a day).
Sometimes if I'm in a hurry I just eat a plain avocado a day.
You can sprinkle chia seeds on yogurt. Add flax seed to smoothies.
Just eat 1/4th of pumpkin seeds too (which are also super high in magnesium). That's basically a handful a day, make it part of your morning routine.
Almonds, walnuts, and pecans are also high in good fats.

Debunking Wellness Trends: Seed Oils
One aspect of the growing wellness trends on social media is the idea that seed oils are poisoning the population and need to be avoided to reach better health/heal health conditions/conserve fertility/etc. They’re being called “the hateful eight”, and there’s a lot of people doing the #seedoilfree lifestyle. Seed oils are being blamed for headaches, low immunity, disrupted attention and thinking, diabetes, and more.
(Seed oils include canola, corn, cottonseed, grapeseed, rice bran, safflower, soy and sunflower oil)
Toxicity Claims
Current scientific evidence does NOT support claims that seed oils are “toxic”.
Now, if you begin to cut out foods such as fried foods (like fries) or packaged snacks, you may feel better. A lot of people are attributing this feeling to removing seed oils, but these foods are usually high in refined carbohydrates, sodium and sugar which is why they’re associated with more negative health outcomes.
Another fear is that the “toxicity” comes from production byproducts. Heat and solvents like hexane are used to extract oil from seeds, which apparently introduces chemical additives and unstable molecules, which then can turn polyunsaturated fats into harmful trans fats. Realistically, hexane is a bigger threat to the environment and workers in case of inhalation – trace amounts in the oil are still being studied, but so far there’s no concerning data. They’re also heated for short periods, and actually have fewer trans fats than products like milk or butter.
Omega-6
Additionally, omega-6 (found in nuts and seeds, and a dominant polyunsaturated fat in seed oils) is also not “toxic”. In fact, it’s been scientifically linked to lower cholesterol, lower blood sugar and reduced heart disease risk. The argument against omega-6 is that it’s responsible for chronic inflammation – omega-6 linoleic acid is converted into arachidonic acid in the body, which is a component of inflammatory compounds. Only 0.2% of linoleic acid we eat turns into arachidonic acid, and not all the compounds cause inflammation – arachidonic acid is a complex molecule, and it also has some anti-inflammatory effects. Linoleic acid is also an essential fatty acid that our body can’t make itself, and we use it to produce cell membranes and for skin health.
Another claim is that our omega-3: omega-6 ratio is out of balance, and that this is because our ancestors ate a much more balanced ratio than we do today. We DO eat more omega-6 fats than omega-3, but the claim that we eat 20 to 50x more is misinformation – it’s closer to 10:1. Instead of cutting omega-6, the better solution is to try and introduce more omega-3 fats into your diet.
Realistically, a lot of the online discourse about seed oils is misunderstanding scientific reports + deliberate fear-mongering. If you do have concerns about something in your diet causing health issues, seek advice from a trained medical professional who can give you evidence-based ideas and solutions to help you!

Cannabis: A Multifaceted Plant for a Multitude of Uses
Introduction
Cannabis, a plant that has been a part of human history for thousands of years, is experiencing a resurgence in popularity as its myriad of uses become increasingly recognised. From its strong fibres used in textiles and paper to its nutritional and medicinal properties, cannabis has proven itself to be a truly multipurpose plant. This article will delve into the various aspects of this versatile plant and explore how it has been utilised throughout history and across cultures.
The History of Hemp: A Material with Unmatched Strength
One of the most well-known uses of cannabis is in the production of hemp, a material derived from the plant's strong fibres. These fibres have been used for millennia to create durable cloth, rope, and paper. The Vikings, known for their seafaring prowess, utilised hemp to construct sails for their ships, enabling them to voyage from Scandinavia to Nova Scotia. In the United States, Betsy Ross sewed the first flag from hempen cloth, and the Declaration of Independence was written on hemp paper. Even the now obsolete German currency, Deutsche Mark, were once printed on hemp paper.
The use of hemp extended beyond these applications, as seen in the Netherlands, where windmills were built specifically to crush hemp stalks. This demonstrates the importance of hemp in various industries and highlights the plant's incredible versatility.
Cannabis as a Nutritional Powerhouse
While the strength of its fibres may have initially attracted humans to the cannabis plant, its potential as a food source likely played a significant role in its widespread cultivation. Cannabis seeds, or hempseeds, are packed with essential nutrients such as polyunsaturated fats, essential fatty acids, and proteins. These qualities qualify hempseed as a functional food, meaning it provides health benefits beyond basic nutrition.
For over three thousand years, Asian cultures have utilised hempseed as both a food and a medicine. Despite the prohibition of cannabis products in the United States, hempseed has been allowed for use in food over the last two decades. This highlights the recognition of its nutritional value and potential health benefits.
Cannabis Resin: A Source of Medicinal and Psychoactive Compounds
The resin produced by the cannabis plant is another aspect that has garnered significant attention due to its medicinal and psychoactive properties. The compounds found in cannabis resin, such as THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) and CBD (cannabidiol), have been the focus of breeding efforts to increase their production. These efforts have led to the development of various cannabis drug chemotypes around the world, with some cultivars producing only THC, others producing both THC and CBD, and a few expressing propyl THCV (tetrahydrocannabivarin) and/or CBDV (cannabidivarin).
The medicinal uses of cannabis resin have been widely researched, with evidence suggesting its effectiveness in treating conditions such as chronic pain, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis, and more. The psychoactive effects of THC have also led to the recreational use of cannabis, which has sparked debates surrounding its legalisation and regulation.
Environmental Benefits of Cannabis Cultivation
In addition to its myriad uses, cannabis cultivation offers several environmental benefits. Hemp plants are known to absorb large amounts of carbon dioxide, making them an effective tool in combating climate change. Furthermore, hemp requires fewer pesticides and herbicides than many other crops, reducing the environmental impact of agriculture.
Cannabis can also be used as a source of biofuel, offering a renewable and eco-friendly alternative to fossil fuels. Additionally, the fast growth rate and low water requirements of hemp make it a sustainable crop, capable of providing resources without causing significant strain on natural resources.
Conclusion
Cannabis is a truly remarkable plant, with applications ranging from textiles and paper to nutrition and medicine. As society continues to recognise its numerous benefits, it is likely that the cultivation and use of cannabis will only continue to grow. By embracing this versatile plant, we can harness its potential to improve our health, industries, and environment for generations to come.

Story at-a-glance
Americans today have significantly lower metabolic rates than their ancestors did, despite similar calorie consumption. In the 1940s Minnesota Starvation Experiment, lean men maintained their weight on 3,500 calories per day with moderate activity, while modern calculators suggest they should need only 2,000 to 2,400 calories
Research by Dr. John Speakman shows that basal metabolic rate (BMR) has declined significantly over time, while Active Energy Expenditure (intentional exercise) has actually increased, contradicting the common belief that we simply move less than our ancestors
Currently, approximately 73% of American adults are either overweight (30.7%) or obese (42.4%). This is a major public health crisis that cannot be explained by reduced physical activity alone
The dramatic increase in polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) consumption since 1909 (up 238%) has likely contributed to decreased metabolic rates, as these fats can downregulate metabolism compared to the saturated fats our ancestors consumed
Average body temperatures in the United States have been steadily declining since the Industrial Revolution, providing additional evidence of decreasing metabolic rates across the population

My favorite scientific law is Coles Law which states that In a small dish, prepare the dressing by whisking together mayonnaise, sugar, vinegar, salt, and black pepper.
⅔ cup (160 g) mayonnaise, 1 ½ Tablespoons granulated sugar, 1 ½ Tablespoons apple cider vinegar, ¼ teaspoon table salt, ¼ teaspoon black pepper
In a large bowl, toss together green and purple cabbage and shredded carrots.
3 cups (240 g) shredded green cabbage, 1 cup (75 g) shredded purple cabbage, 1 cup (100 g) peeled, shredded carrots
Drizzle dressing over cabbage/carrot mixture and toss/stir until ingredient are thoroughly combined and all cabbage/carrots are coated with dressing. Taste-test and add more salt and pepper as needed.
Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving (for best flavor).
Notes
Storing
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-5 days.
Using pre-shredded cabbage mix
You may substitute a 14oz bag of shredded coleslaw mix for the cabbage and carrots listed in the recipe.
