Diet Sluggish?  Time for an oil change!

Feeling a little out of kilter these days?  Rusty parts? Experiencing unsightly mineral deposits? Perhaps it's time for an oil change!

Although fat is a necessary part of our diet, certain oils that contain a whopping portion of saturated fat don't have to be.  But with so many choices on the market these days, which oils are the healthiest for our bodies?  We've prepared a naughty and nice oil list below to help with your choices.

Oil the Bad Oils - Tips for reducing the bad fats.

This Tropical Oil Duo is among the unhealthiest of oils: coconut and palm. Both are popular in the popcorn you may enjoy at that next double feature at the movies.  

Both are high in saturated fats with super artery-clogging abilities.

Fat Reduction Tip: Enjoy a few Gummy Bears at the movies or at minimum, go light on the butter if you must have popcorn.  And it doesn't hurt to ask the theater which type of oils they use.  If their brand of oil turns out tropical, suggest a healthier alternative to the manager in a constructive manner.

When choosing oils, look for those high in monosaturated fat which may raise levels of protective HDL cholesterol.
