Think All Oils Are the Same? Think Again!

Hi There, Healthy Eater!

Did you know the type of oil you use in your cooking can make or break your health goals? 🌿🍳 Many oils you see on supermarket shelves aren't as healthy as they seem, and some might even be harming your body without you realizing it.

Here at The Healthy Buck, we're all about empowering you with simple, actionable tips to transform your diet and live your best life.

Why Oils Matter in Your Diet

Switching to the right cooking oils isn’t just about flavor—it’s about reducing inflammation, improving heart health, and avoiding hidden dangers like trans fats and free radicals.

Here are a few tips to get you started:

1. Choose Cold-Pressed Oils: These retain more nutrients and antioxidants.

2. Skip Hydrogenated Oils: They’re loaded with harmful trans fats that increase your risk of heart disease.

3. Use Oils Wisely: Different oils have different smoke points—using them incorrectly can create toxic compounds!
