Beyond the Bottle: Not All Fats are Created Equal
In most modern kitchens, the cooking oil bottle is a staple. We use it for roasting, sautéing, and dressing our salads. But if you are using "Vegetable Oil," "Canola Oil," or a "Mediterranean Blend," you might be unknowingly adding inflammation to every meal.
At JK Healthy Eats, we follow the science of ancestral nutrition.That means we prioritize stable, cold-pressed fats and strictly avoid industrial seed oils that have been chemically processed. Just like our Real Food Protein Bars, our pantry staples meet a strict standard
The "Hateful Eight": Oils to Avoid
Industrial seed oils are a modern invention. They are extracted using high heat and chemical solvents (like hexane). These oils are high in Omega-6 fatty acids, which can lead to chronic inflammation when consumed in excess.
Put these back on the shelf:
- Canola Oil (Often genetically modified and highly processed)
- Soybean Oil (The #1 source of hidden calories in the US diet)
- Sunflower / Safflower Oil (High in unstable Omega-6)
- Corn & Cottonseed Oil
Choose a bottle of Organic Avocado Oil or Grass-Fed Ghee
The JK Healthy Eats Standard: Pure Healthy Fats
We only curate oils that are extracted through traditional methods (cold-pressed or expeller-pressed) and remain stable under heat.
- Organic Avocado Oil: The king of high-heat cooking. It has a high smoke point (520°F) and a neutral flavor.
- Extra Virgin Olive Oil: Perfect for low-heat cooking and dressings. Look for "Cold Pressed" and dark glass bottles to protect the nutrients.
- Grass-Fed Ghee: Clarified butter that is free from lactose and casein. It’s rich in vitamins A, D, and K2.
Choose a high-quality Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Conclusion: Clean Up Your Pantry
You don't need a pantry full of different oils. You just need 2 or 3 high-quality, pure fats that support your gut health instead of damaging it. When you shop the Pure Healthy fats collection at JK Healthy Eats, you know every bottle is 100% seed-oil free.
