30 A free guide 2012 Empowered Sustenance EmpoweredSustenance.com How to Use Good Fats Sautéing and Cooking These fats have larger amounts of saturated fats and are therefore heat stable. Unlike vegetable oils with a larger percentage of polyunsaturated fats, animal-based fats will not oxidize with heat. Coconut oil and palm oil are the exception, they are heat stable and packed with metabolism-boosting medium chain triglycerides. Of course, source animal fats from pastured/grassfed, hormone free animals. Butter, preferably from pastured cows (such as Kerrygold or Organic Valley Pasture Butter) Ghee, preferably from pastured cows Coconut oil, refined or unrefined Palm oil, non-hydrogenated Lard, rendered (not from the supermarket) Rendered tallow and suet from grassfed beef Rendered duck and goose fat Bacon grease from nitrate-free bacon Unrefined sesame oil, for occasional use Baking Again, avoid unstable vegetable oils which are prone to oxidation. Unrefined coconut oil may lend a slight coconut flavor to baked goods, while refined coconut oil has a less pronounced flavor. Lard, with no discernible flavor, produces delightfully moist baked goods. Gently melt lard, ghee or coconut oil in a saucepan and use instead of vegetable oil in recipes. Butter, preferably from pastured cows Ghee, preferably from pastured cows Coconut oil, refined or unrefined Lard, rendered lard (not from the supermarket) 30 Thursday, June 27, 13

31 Unheated Preparations (salad dressing, drizzling) Most vegetable oils have been processed with solvents at high heat, and are oxidized and toxic to the body. These vegetable oils are the best choices for unheated preparations: Olive oil, cold pressed and extra virgin from the U.S. Sunflower Oil, cold pressed and unrefined (in small amounts) Avocado oil, cold pressed and unrefined (store in the fridge) 31 Thursday, June 27, 13
