Oils are unhealthy? I’m…pretty sure that’s not true. Olive oil and coconut oil are both great for you. Other, more obscure oils are probably healthy as well.
Oils are fats, of course that you should eat less oils than other stuff. Its not about the top be8ng unhealthy, it's about the amount you should consume compared to the bottom, you need to consume all of that.
I mean, sure. But fats aren’t unhealthy. Especially high quality, complex fats like you find in oils. The top is “processed foods,” meaning sweets and chips and shit. I just think it’s misleading to include the oils.
I'll repeat myself. It's not about the top being unhealthy, it's about the amount you should consume compared to the bottom and you clearly should consume less oil than veggies.
I live in Spain, I use exclusively high quality oil for everything really and I still use it in moderation. You sound like the people that like the bottom of their salad to be swimming in oil and vinegar, who then absorb it all with bread stating that the oil is healthy... Sure man, you just quadrupled the amount of calories on that salad but you do you...
lol I’m not trying to argue or anything, I was just making the point that including something with some nutritional value and health benefits in with something you’d be healthier having none of in your diet makes the info slightly unclear. It seems, to be at the top, it should either be alone, with processed foods not included at all, or have its own little tiny bar underneath that section.
Like, they make MCT and hemp and avocado oil supplements. You’re not ever gonna see ho-ho supplements. See my point?
