Exercising without a gym

I notice that Butter from M'sia ususally has palm oil as part of the ingredients. By itself, raw palm oil is ok. But processed palm oil (likely hydrogenated) to solidify it to make it like butter, it is downright dangerous. It becomes pure TRANS FAT.

 

 

Always check ingrediients.

are you sure?? palm oil may be bleached but hydrogenated?? dont seem to need to go through this process though.....correct me if me wrong

In this case, the palm oil needs to be hydrogenated to make it solid. If you look at iingredients of margarine, they also use vegetable oil (including palm oil) and make these oils solid.

 

With the new govt. requirements to reduce the trans fat, the manufacturer will have to use another way to solidify vegetable oil into a solid form.

 

Why take the risk, just avoid them.

Yeah.

 

Just read the ingredients. Should be just milk fat and salt (if salted).

[Chickenbackside]

HDL/total cholesterol: 0.25

 

Trigs/HDL: 0.72

 

Both outstanding numbers. No danger of dying of a heart attack any time soon.

me got mix up with the tri/hdl and cholesterol/hdl figures......got you kanjiong there, sori

 

anyway, me also just went for a blood test a few days ago after having one for 2 yrs. Hope its as good as yours

[Hamburger]

frankly if go polyclinic, high chance they may put you on pills just by looking at your total cholesterol figures. They look only at figures and not analyzing them.

[Chickenbackside]

Once they see your total cholesterol above 200, they will say you are going to die soon, and must take 10,000 statins a day or something.

 

Ask them why, they will say the cholesterol will get stuck in your arteries. Ask them the correlation between trigs, HDL and LDL particle sizes their relationship to heart disease, they will say "huh?", and then say, it doesn't matter.

 

Ah well, as long as I keep up with the science instead of being educated by Pfizer...
