Cooking Oil Comparison

Heating oil can change its properties. Oils that are nutritious at room temperature can turn into harmful when heated up above particular temperatures. When picking out cooking oil, it is essential to check the oil's heat threshold with the cooking process.

With the huge range of cooking oil options on the market, it is not difficult to be confused. Here is information for selecting healthy oils, furthermore which oils you must always have available.

Olive Oil

Made with the fruit from the olive tree, olive oil is liked due to its tested cardiovascular defensive properties. Available in lots of unique qualities, frequent intake may decrease the chance of coronary heart problems as a result of monounsaturated fat material in the oil. It is generally used in sautéing and usually shows up just as one ingredient in salad dressings. Its taste is usually utilized in Mediterranean style meals.

Smoke Point: 191 °C

Butter

Pure butter is best for you and in fact quite healthy. It consists of Vitamins A, E and K. It is also full of fatty acids Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA) and Butyrate, each of which has effective health advantages. CLA may decrease body fat proportion in human beings and butyrate can deal with infection, enhance stomach health and has been confirmed for making rats not fat. Made up of saturated fats and dietary cholesterol, butter is not normally suggested as healthful cooking grease, although many individuals however like it because of its taste.

Smoke Point: 121–149 °C

Canola Oil

Accepted by the American Heart Association and American Dietetic Association for its valuable omega-3 fatty acids, canola oil is produced by a specifically grown variation of rapeseed. Its name is a shorter variation of the term "Canadian oil, low acid"; the very first canola plants were selectively bred in Canada and result in lower levels of erucic acid. Canola oil has to proceed through very tough processing techniques prior to it is transformed into the final product.

Flaxseed oil

 Flaxseed oil is produced by cold-pressing flaxseeds, a plant that is developed on prairies in western northern U.S and Canada. This oil is a healthy source of omega-3 and omega-6essential fatty acids, but due to the fact it has a minimal smoke point, it's ideal to use on chilly dishes such as in desserts, dips, drinks, etc. It has fairly a short life, and although it's stored under refrigeration, it only will last a couple of weeks. Many individuals use this oil to complement with Omega-3 fats.

Smoke Point: 107 °C

Coconut Oil

Coconut oil is usually known as tropical oil and is produced from the brown meat of a coconut. As a result of its high saturated fat content, this oil is still contentious in the United States because intake of saturated fatty acids has already been connected to high amounts of LDL cholesterol.  The oil is even now commonly utilized in areas of South Asia where coconuts are common. Cooking with coconut oil is sure as a result of its high smoke point, and it has a strong flavor. You can purchase coconut oil in two types: refined and virgin. Virgin coconut oil keeps its normal aroma and flavor of fresh coconuts, although refined coconut oil has a much more dull taste because of the refining procedure. Both equally have a shelf life of approximately 2 years.

Comfort zones..

"Great things never came from comfort zones". Time to get out of your comfort zone and start living. 

Just keep going..

Don't give up. The results will come I promise. 

Shop Tippi

My favorite little Shop for my misses. It's called Shop Tippi and they have the CUTEST clothing for little girls and even some for momma. Once you check them out you will be addicted. So cute!

These are a few of my favorite things..

Thought I would switch it up tonight and post my 4 favorite products for hair, skin and nails. 

1) First of all if your a Blondie you need Purple Shampoo. Just when your color starts to look dull or fade brassy the purple shampoo brightens everything up. I use it about twice a week and it's a life savor. Also if you want to drag out your color a week or two this is the way to go. 

 2) My biggest pet peeve is waiting for nail polish to dry. These drops from OPI help your polish dry faster and coat the polish to prevent chipping. Magic 

3) I have been taking Biotin supplements since I had my last baby and it has been a lifesaver! It's helped my hair get stronger and fuller and longer since loosing a lot of it after having my kiddos.

4) Last this is hands down the best product for Men and Women. Tend Skin is the best product for after shaving. It helps prevent razor burn, red bumps, soothe skin, etc. It's a miracle in a bottle. Every guy needs to own this product. Girls if your prone to razor burn you just got a new best friend. 

 All of these product can be found at a local beauty supply store. Enjoy

Introduction to Paleo, Raw, Vegan and Vegetarian Diet

                                                   Paleo Diet

The way of eating of the people of Stone Age with their limited facilities, is known as Paleo diet. Our ancestors (Stone Age people) used to eat food without knowing its benefits.

The benefits of Paleo diet are, better sleep, better temper and attitude, decrease in blood pressure, mind clarity, decrease in depression, allergy reduction, improvement in the muscles.

Paleo diet is becoming popular diet day after day due to its vital benefits. The Stone Age people were of healthy physic with minimum diseases and with high immune system. They (our ancestors) only eat the things which humans are supposed to eat. Today, most of the natural health experts and athletic experts (coaches) restlessly want to know why we should eat like our early hunter-gatherers.

Paleo diet is also known as primal blueprint, Caveman diet and the Stone Age diet. Paleo diet adopted today is free of processed and refined food items. Paleo means a variety of eating and fitness rules. These rules are designed with respect to theories of human evolution.

Some of the Paleo foods are Grass-produced meats, fresh fruits and veggies, eggs, healthful oils (walnut, Olive, Macadamia, flax seed, avocado, coconut), grass-produced meats, fresh vegetables, nuts, seeds, fresh fruits and seafood, etc.

                                                       Raw Diet

All the uncooked edible fruits, vegetables and grains are known as raw diet.

A raw diet mainly contains sprouts, natural sweeteners, nuts, seeds, dried fruits, seaweeds, beans and organic fruits and vegetables.

Raw diet is the diet that is used to detoxify and cleaning up your skin. It also used to lose weight in a healthy way. Being fully natural diet, it is used to remove toxins from the body and enhances your bodily health. Raw diet is cheaper than another way of eating to get a healthy body free of toxic materials. It also gives rest or break to your oven and pans. Raw diet helps you to reduce a few pounds by keeping you naturally healthy.  

                                                      Vegan Diet

This way of eating allows you to eat only vegetables and edibles which are not concerned for animals like meat, dairy products, eggs, fish and anything concerned with animals and their derivatives. Vegan eating also keeps you away from taking artificial sweeteners, caffeine, alcohol, refined carbohydrates and sugar. The vegan way of eating excludes from beeswax and honey too. 

On the other hand it allows you to eat fresh fruits and vegetables, grains (whole grains), sulfite free red wine, fake chicken patty and all organic except animals and their byproducts. Tofu is also considered a good vegan source of protein that fulfills your protein need.

Leading a life to be natural, means to be healthy. One biggest benefit is that there is no calorie counting while eating vegan. It keeps you in skinny like shape if you are properly eating in this way. This way of eating is adopted to get a great looking body and better health. If you want to lose your weight with this way eating just need to make a plan of eating very low calorie vegan diet.

                                             Vegetarian diet

A vegetarian way of eating can be understood by its name “vegetarian”. It allows you to eat all vegetables and their by products. It is the way of eating which keeps you away from eating red meat, poultry, seafood and their by- products. Many people adopt vegetarianism just because of their religious beliefs and to get a healthy way of eating to sustain a healthy and active body.

The two main types of vegetarian way of eating differ from each other.

1.      Total vegetarian

2.      Semi-vegetarian

The total vegetarian diet allows you to eat foods from plants only not even eggs or dairy products and the products relevant to animals and their derivatives.

On the other hand semi-vegetarian eating allows you to eat all plant related products and foods and also allows you to eat white meat (chicken and fish), eggs and dairy products as well.

Vegetarianism can be categorized in different varieties such as;

ü  Ovo vegetarian diet

ü  Lacto vegetarian diet

ü  Ovo-lacto vegetarian diet

The ovo vegetarian diet contains vegetables and eggs only, but dairy products and other derivatives of animals are not allowed.

Lacto vegetarian eating is the eating in which one can eat vegetables, fruits and all the dairy products, but eggs and other animal related are not allowed to eat.

Ovo-Lacto vegetarian diet includes both eggs and dairy products, but not the animals.

In fact a vegetarian diet is not confined to one way of eating only, for the health benefits or other self benefits it can be changed.

Vegetarian diet is adopted to maintain natural health and to lose weight, which had been increasing day by day. Being vegetarian or eating vegetarian diet allows you to remove some harmful materials from your body and it also keeps you alert.

Vegetarian diet mostly considered healthy and is adopted to lose weight as vegetarian diet contains natural fruits and vegetables which are low in fat and calories.
