PUFA: Good or bad?

[SwaZ]

I think MUFA is fine too. Studies showed there is compound in coconut oil and olive oil (MUFA) that helps absorb cholesterol by testes. Resulting in higher hormonal output.

I eat 2 tablespoons (uncooked) of extra virgin olive oil everyday.

High carbohydrate diet is also higher hormonal output if you look at studies. Lower cortisol, higher testosterone. Especially if you workout.

PUFA (uncooked) have shown to increase muscle and lower fat if you eat medium-high PUFA diet.

I do not think it is clear cut. Although I am avoiding PUFA for now.

Make sure to get good quality olive oil, usualy it clumps at room temperature ( more MUFA less PUFA)

Some brands mix olive oil with sunflower or even worse canola oil, and dont have to declare that on the package so watch out for that.

I noticed some brands say "extra olive oil" on the back. Does not make sense at all. Just companies trying to fuck you over. Fuck them. I hope their business fails. They make people sick and should pay for it.
