I'm craving for #HobNobs, but they have #palmoil in them, so I haven't had any in about a year.

I'll have a #tartine (#veganbutter) and a cuppa with #veganmilk

Okay, this turned out really well.

I cooked some #JerkTofu to go along with the #Caribbean-inspired #BeansAndRice I cooked a few days ago. I deglazed the pan with #Pineapple, added some #VeganButter, and let it reduce in its juices.

Holy soybeans, was it delicious.

All of these things together form a #Jamaican #Jerk #Tofu #Bowl.

I based my recipe on this: https://www.connoisseurusveg.com/jamaican-jerk-tofu-bowls/

Bio: Dr Evan Allen

Dr. Evan Allen, the author of Oversaturated, believes that a pervasive distortion of the truth ignores decades of established research and has led millions of people to embrace a diet high in saturated fat. Furthermore that this diet results in millions of people suffering the consequences of diabetes, dementia and heart disease each year.

Evan has been practicing medicine for over 25 years. During this time, he has opened two practices in Henderson, Nevada. He’s received board certification from the American board of obesity medicine. But more importantly, when he really started to pay attention to nutrition, the health of his patients improved dramatically.

He hopes to give healthcare providers what he never had, which is a guide to talking to your patients about a healthy diet that’s low in saturated fat and ultimately, genuinely improve the health of your patients.

Palm Oil Detectives is honoured to interview to Dr Evan Allen about his fascinating work, why his research into fats in the diet led him to becoming vegan.

A diet high in saturated fat is incredibly unhealthy for you

Saturated fats once were considered as bad for you as cigarettes. However over the past 15 years, an ocean of misinformation online created by the food industry has sought to ignore decades of established research about the health dangers of these fats in the diet.

Saturated fat causes millions of people to get diabetes, dementia, high cholesterol, and heart disease each year

Dr. Evan Allen’s new book Oversaturated: A Guide to Conversations about Fats with Your Patients assists Health Practitioners to clearly and confidently speak with their patients about the facts on saturated fat and how to adopt a regimen of preventative care involving diet and lifestyle changes, with surgery and medication as a last resort.

https://youtu.be/CiuU8jwM31M

From my perspective, the weight of the scientific case against saturated fat was so strong that I felt it was necessary to have a book that distilled down that case into a readable, accessible format that someone could read quickly and understand fully in a short period of time.

An easy win for health: avoid top sources of saturated fat in the diet

• Palm oil
• Meat
• Grain-based desserts
• Cheese
• Pizza

People who dramatically reduce their saturated fat intake will likely see remarkable benefits in their health.

The best part is, it’s easy to experience these benefits. Just cut out the top five sources — or at least drastically reduce how often you eat them — to cut your saturated fat intake way down.

Doing so is likely to reduce long-term risk factors like blood cholesterol or vascular dilation ability (involved in heart disease, diabetes, fatty liver, etc). Other benefits will accrue more quickly, like improvements in erectile dysfunction and chronic back pain due to less arterial plaque buildup.

Misinformation about palm oil is the same as misinformation about other industries

The food industry needed a fat to replace trans fats that is “inexpensive” (palm oil is actually very costly in ecological and biological diversity terms) so that all the common snack foods would go rancid less quickly.

The food industry needed this greenwashing, they needed to spruce up the image of palm oil and its environmental and biological cost. This was accomplished using the same mechanism that all industries have used over the past century to make a harmful product seem harmless or even beneficial: the media and now social media.

Examples of the greenwashing of “sustainable” palm oil from the RSPO/WWF

Vegans should avoid palm oil and coconut oil

Primarily because they are saturated fats, the avoidance of which is one of the primary benefits of a plant-based diet. You can remove significant amounts of the benefits of PBD simply by adding in copious saturated fat.

In addition to destroying the habitat of magnificent animals, palm oil is also bad for your health, it is a win-win to avoid it

https://twitter.com/EAllen0417/status/1382421188350136322?s=20&t=OF7ykK-BisUVn_VvM4iw_A

Palm oil is bad. So is animal agriculture

Both palm oil production and animal agriculture lead to significant habitat loss for our fellow creatures. Saturated fats of all types tend to push negative health and ecological outcomes. Avoiding them is a win-win.

https://twitter.com/EAllen0417/status/1436005777378975744?s=20&t=OF7ykK-BisUVn_VvM4iw_A

Almost 90% of the world’s animal species will lose some habitat to agriculture by 2050

Scientists know that #biodiversity is declining across much of the world although less universally and dramatically than we feared. We also know that things are likely to get worse in the future, with a combination of #deforestation, #climatechange and overexploitation set to drive species and habitats ever closer to #extinction. Help them every time you…

Palmitate: the saturated fat most commonly found in animal products and palm oil is used to produce ceramides in the body

https://twitter.com/EAllen0417/status/1304455438990073856?s=20&t=OF7ykK-BisUVn_VvM4iw_A

Palm oil is a huge contributor to the saturated fat burden and is found in around 50% of all supermarket items

https://twitter.com/podclipsapp/status/1293108343784058880?s=20&t=OF7ykK-BisUVn_VvM4iw_A

Let’s talk about ceramides

When one’s diet is high in saturated fat from any source, the body has an enzyme that is switched on called Serine palmitoyltransferase (note the palm in the start of that second word). This makes a specific kind of ceramide, C-16:0 ceramide.

Ceramides with different attached fatty acids have differing physiological effects within the human body.

However, saturated fats that are 14-18 carbons long typically have negative metabolic and health impacts. C-16:0 ceramide worsens the symptoms of asthma, heart disease and heart muscle function, and increases the risk of death from heart failure.

A host of maladies arise from elevated cholesterol levels, including stroke, heart attack, spinal disc disease and erectile dysfunction.

Ceramide consumption comes from the consumption of saturated fat- whether from pigs, chickens, sheep, ducks or palm oil the body can’t tell the difference between the origin of one C-16:0 ceramide or another.

Cutting out meat from your diet means you get better overall blood flow to your organs. There will be less stress on the kidney and liver, along with reduced inflammatory markers. In addition, most people who eliminate those foods add in more unprocessed plant foods, which have specific health benefits.

The diet I propose is not fat-phobic, it is simply healthier

All cell membranes from all organisms are made of fat, so there’s no reason to have a phobia about fat in general. However, fat is definitely the most calorie dense of the main nutrients. Therefore, for people with obesity, there are good reasons to try to minimise calorie density in diets.

I became vegan to reverse my fatty liver

However after making diet change for health reasons, I realised that many people adopt veganism primarily for ethical, animal justice and environmental reasons.

Primatologist Dr Frans De Waal labeled people who believe that our fellow creatures are somehow cognitively different from us “neo-creationists.” I find his argument compelling, both scientifically and as a basis for veganism.

In my case, I needed to change how I ate for my health, before I would even consider the ethical and environmental cases against eating animals.

A fourth reason for avoiding meat and going vegan: The spread to Zoonoses, such as Covid-19

Halting deforestation means that we halt the spread of zoonoses. The vector-borne illnesses the jump from animals to humans due to the industrial-scale commodification of our fellow creatures.

Deforestation Allows for Deadly Viruses to Jump Species

Many pandemics originate from wildlife that jumps from animal to human. These leaps often happen at the edges of the world’s tropical forests, where #deforestation is increasingly bringing people into contact with animals’ natural habitats. Yellow fever, #malaria, Venezuelan equine encephalitis, #Ebola – all of these pathogens have spilled over from one species to another…

How our food choices cut into forests and put us closer to viruses

Terry Sunderland, University of British Columbia As the global population has doubled to 7.8 billion in about 50 years, industrial agriculture has increased the output from fields and farms to feed humanity. One of the negative outcomes of this transformation has been the extreme simplification of ecological systems, with complex multi-functional landscapes converted to vast…

My book is for fellow health practitioners to push back against the narrative of the food industry

When we determined asbestos was harmful and caused mesothelioma, we didn’t start looking for the very smallest, safe amount of asbestos. We just stopped using it and tried to get rid of it.

Each chapter of my book has a lengthy set of references that people can follow to learn more about the issue of saturated fat.

I hope that health practitioners find the book insightful and a supportive aid in having conversations with their patients about this critical health issue.

Palm Oil Free Cooking Oil, Margarine and Spreads

Are you an avid lover of #Nutella and other spreadable butters and #margarines? Consider that many popular brands come tarnished with dirty #palmoil. Why is palm oil dirty? It has destroyed millions of hectares of rainforests all over the world. Firstly in SE Asia and increasingly now in Africa, South and Central America as well as India. Wild animals and indigenous peoples suffer the most. Here’s a helpful guide so that you can AVOID the major supermarket brands and still enjoy your hit of nut butter and chocolate spread WITHOUT Nutella.

By choosing locally produced cooking oils such as olive, sesame or peanut oil and by making your own foods instead of buying convenience foods you’re doing your health and the animals a favour. If you are ever in doubt look for the prefixes: LAUR, STEAR, GYLC and PALM in the ingredients list on packaging – this is most likely palm oil.

Palm oil is one of the world’s most destructive crops, as it can only be harvested in tropical rainforest and peatland landscapes where the highest concentration of endangered species live. The majority of palm oil and soy is fed to farm animals that people eat. This is why palm oil is an animal rights issue. And it is for these reasons that palm oil is NOT considered vegan by animal activists. It may be a plant-based substance, but it is NOT VEGAN. Convenience food mega-brands that make spreads and margarines like Mondelez, Nestle, Danone, CocaCola, Pepsi, Hersheys and Ferrero claim that the palm oil they use is vegan. Yet all palm oil is linked to greenwashing, extinction and ecocide!

Companies should give the people what they want – palm oil free!

Research finds that palm oil free labelling encourages more people to purchase these products

“The perceived effects of palm oil on health have the strongest influence on consumption intent, followed by environmental damage caused by palm oil production…Our research suggests that companies developing palm oil-free products could benefit from a label on the product stating their palm oil-free nature.”

“Results revealed that consumer exposed to the ‘palm oil free’ products showed a lower risk perception compared to those exposed to the ‘with sustainable palm oil’ products and to products without claim. Moreover, the product evaluation was better in the ‘palm oil free’ condition compared to the “with sustainable palm oil” condition”

Palm Oil Free Cooking Oil, Margarine and Spreads

Are you an avid lover of #Nutella and other spreadable butters and #margarines? Consider that many popular brands come tarnished with dirty #palmoil. Why is palm oil dirty? It has destroyed millions of hectares of rainforests all over the world. Firstly in SE Asia and increasingly now in Africa, South and Central America as well as India. Wild animals and indigenous peoples suffer the most. Here’s a helpful guide so that you can AVOID the major supermarket brands and still enjoy your hit of nut butter and chocolate spread WITHOUT Nutella.

By choosing locally produced cooking oils such as olive, sesame or peanut oil and by making your own foods instead of buying convenience foods you’re doing your health and the animals a favour. If you are ever in doubt look for the prefixes: LAUR, STEAR, GYLC and PALM in the ingredients list on packaging – this is most likely palm oil. Take action and buy #PalmOilFree #Vegan and #BoycottPalmOil #Boycott4Wildlife

Yet all palm oil is linked to greenwashing, extinction and ecocide!

Companies should give the people what they want – palm oil free!

Research finds that palm oil free labelling encourages more people to purchase these products

“The perceived effects of palm oil on health have the strongest influence on consumption intent, followed by environmental damage caused by palm oil production…Our research suggests that companies developing palm oil-free products could benefit from a label on the product stating their palm oil-free nature.”

“Results revealed that consumer exposed to the ‘palm oil free’ products showed a lower risk perception compared to those exposed to the ‘with sustainable palm oil’ products and to products without claim. Moreover, the product evaluation was better in the ‘palm oil free’ condition compared to the “with sustainable palm oil” condition”

“Products with a free-from label were considered healthier than products without such a label, with the strongest effects occurring for labels indicating that products were free of GMOs and free of palm oil.”
