6 Ways to Trade Bad Fats
for Good
By Janis Graham
To get more heart-healthy fats into your diet, try these easy
substitutions.
1. Eat salmon instead of steaks or burgers. Try canned
salmon in salads or sandwiches, or whip up some salmon burgers.
2. Pass on the fried fish sandwich at your fast-food
hangout. The fish is usually cod, pollock or flounder -- all low in
good fat -- and may be fried in partially hydrogenated vegetable
oil, a source of bad fat. Order the grilled chicken sandwich
instead.
3. Sprinkle salads with olives, avocado and nuts rather than
bacon bits and croutons.
4. Snack on a handful of nuts (preferably unsalted)
instead of cookies, chips, pastries or microwave popcorn -- all of
which contain hydrogenated oil.
5. Dip bread in some olive oil instead of slathering on
butter.
6. Choose convenience and packaged foods that are made
with healthful canola oil. (You'll usually find these in your
grocery's natural foods section.)
