Thank you Shaun,
I have never looked at the lable on the nonstick spray before. I assumed it was a better choice and use it quite a bit. I appreciate the heads up.
Also, I have learned to read the ingredients concerning sugar contents in labels and not just rely on the nutritional info. side of the label.
God bless you guys!

Shaun, thank you for more great info! Going to get my sprayer back out if I still have it. Got it a long time ago and then for some reason got away from using it. After your presentation, I do not want to use commercial spray anymore! Thanks for the heads-up on the coconut oil as well. I assume it has can handle a higher heat than olive oil, which is what makes olive oil not the best choice with some cooking. Hugs!
@ Pat: We’ll do some detailed stuff on Canola oil in the future. Until then, I’ll let my fat burning friend Mike “the truth” Geary explain it for you. He did an awesome job.
Quoted from an article written by Mike:
“Canola oil typically ranges between 55-65% monounsaturated fat and between 28-35% polyunsaturated fat, with just a small amount of saturated fat.
While we’ve been led to believe that high monounsaturated fat oils are good for us (which they are in the case of virgin olive oil or from unprocessed nuts or seeds), the fact is that canola oil has more detriments than it does benefits.
As you may have heard me talk about in other newsletters or in my Truth about Abs book… one of the biggest problems with highly processed and refined vegetable oils such as corn oil, soybean oil, and yes, even canola oil, is that the polyunsaturated component of the oil is highly unstable under heat, light, and pressure, and this heavily oxidizes the polyunsaturates which increases free radicals in your body.
The end result of all of this refining and processing are oils that are highly inflammatory in your body when you ingest them, potentially contributing to heart disease, weight gain, and other degenerative diseases.
The reason that extra virgin olive oil is good for you is that it is cold pressed without the use of heat and solvents to aid extraction.
Canola oil, on the other hand, is typically extracted and refined using high heat, pressure, and petroleum solvents such as hexane. Most canola oil undergoes a process of caustic refining, degumming, bleaching, and deoderization, all using high heat and questionable chemicals.
Even worse, all of this high heat, high pressure processing with solvents actually forces some of the omega-3 content of canola oil to be transformed into trans fats.
According to Dr. Mary Enig, PhD, and Nutritional Biochemist, “Although the Canadian government lists the trans fat content of canola at a minimal 0.2 percent, research at the University of Florida at Gainesville, found trans fat levels as high as 4.6 percent in commercial liquid canola oil”.
And this is the crap that they are marketing to us as a “health oil”!
The websites that defend canola oil are barking up the wrong tree because they don’t address the issue of the processing of canola oil and oxidation of the polyunsaturated component of canola oil, which is what makes it unhealthy for human consumption. THAT’S the real issue that they either don’t understand (because they are not nutrition experts) or are simply ignoring.”
Interesting! Maybe you can explain something to me. Many protein bars say (for example) only 3 net carbs on the front, but, on the back nutrition label total carbs is shown as 18g, fiber 6g. I remember reading something about subtracting fiber from carbs to get a net carb but that still leaves me with 12g carbs versus their 3g????
Yes, I admit I have used these bars before. I just can’t stand protein powder shakes. I’ve tried a dozen flavors and 4 brands and they are all nasty! Thank goodness for substitution lists.
Keep up the good videos. They are really helpful.
Shaun, Thank you and your wife for sharing this great information. This will be quite helpful in working to get my body in better shape, and healthier! Looking forward to more of your videos! Thank you and God Bless!!
Coconut oil
I have coconut oil but it is in a jar and must be scooped out with a spoon.
Am I using the right stuff?
Does it come in a liquid form?
I love it’s flavor and want to use more of it.
Thanks

Thanks for the information. What is wrong with canola oil? I thought it was healthy.

I hope this helps you as much as it did us!

I think you should include that ‘light’ anything could mean light in colour only – not that it’s actually light in cals or fat grams.
