Fat and Oils
Superhero or Villain?
MyPyramid: • Foods are included on MyPyramid if they supply
essential nutrients as part of calorie needs.OILS (YELLOW BAR) –
• liquid at room temp
• Supply: Vitamin E and essential fatty acids (monounsaturated, polyunsaturated)
• Plant sources (Vegetable oils and nuts) and Fish
FAT– • Solid at Room temperature • Not placed on MyPyramid • Very low in essential nutrients
• Extra calories and cholesterol (fatty acids, trans fat)
Different kinds of oils….. Common Cooking
Oils: canola oil corn oil cottonseed oil olive oil safflower oil soybean oil sunflower oil
Flavoring Oils Walnut oil Sesame oil
nuts olives Avocados salad dressings,
mayonnaise, and soft tub margarine
some fish
Fats (lipids) are greasy substances, liquid or solid, that will not dissolve in water.
Some fats are easy to see (visible fats)
White portions around and through meatsButter, margarine, oil
Many foods contain fats that cannot be seen because they are part of the food’s chemical composition (invisible fats)
egg yolk, nuts, whole mile, baked goods, avocados
Dietary Guidelines #5 KEY RECOMMENDATIONS
1. Keep total fat intake between 25-30% of total calories. No more than 30% of
calories The US eats 40% or more Teen females 60-75 grams
of fat (adults less than 60)
Teen male 90 -100 grams of fat (adults less than 90)
2. Let most of the fats you eat be polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats such as fish, nuts, and vegetable oils. (44 g)
3. High intakes of these 3 fats can increase your risk for coronary heart disease:Saturated fat: Less than 10% of calories (20 g –
2000 cal diet)Cholesterol: Less than 300 mg/dayTrans fat: Keep as low as possible
Calories 250 Calories from Fat 150
4. Serving Sizes?
Women: 5 to 6 teaspoons of oil*
Men: 6 to 7 teaspoons of oil*
* Amount recommended if less than 30 minutes of physical activity per day
*for 2,000 calorie level
1 tsp of oil: 1 tsp soft margarine
(trans fat free) or vegetable oil
1 Tbsp low-fat mayo 2 Tbsp light salad
dressing
2 tsp of oil: 1 Tbsp regular salad
dressing
3 tsp of oil (1 Tbsp) : 1 oz of nuts OR ½
avocado
6 teaspoons of oil per day = a salad with 2 Tablespoons of Italian dressing, use 1 Tablespoon of olive oil to sauté vegetables for dinner, and use about 1 teaspoon of mayonnaise in the tuna salad for lunch.
1 tsp = tip of thumb2 TBL = nine volt batter

B. Functions of fat
One of 3 essential nutrients that provides the body with energy. (the other 2?)
A carrier for Vitamins A, D, E, K
Adds flavor to foodCreates satiety
feel full longer Protects internal organs Insulates body - supplies heatHelps during illness by providing
extra fuel
Fats in foods have value too.
Food flavor and texture is enhanced by a little fat.
Fats add moisture and tenderness to some foods and crispiness to others
High (Too much) Fat Diets Cause:
Heart DiseaseCardiovascular DiseaseWeight gain – Obesity
Most dangerous when stored in excess around the heart, lungs, and abdomen.
C. Fat is the most concentrated source of food energy.
There are 9 calories per gram of fat Carbohydrates and Proteins?
No more than 25-30% total calories from fat For a 2000 calorie diet
▪ (30% of total calories coming from fat) = 65 grams p/ day
Formula: Grams of fat X 9 divided by total calories X 100 = %
of fat calories▪ Sm cookie dough shake: 21 g fat and 780 calories = 24%▪ Pumpkin Pie: 18 g and 407 calories =
Assignment #139% fat
Be more aware
9 calories per gram 1 tsp of fat = 4 grams = 36 calories 1 TBL = 12 grams of fat = 48 calories
3500 calories = 1 pound of body fat Average American eats 24 tsp of fat a
day ▪ 1 stick of butter ▪ 96 grams = 864 calories

D. Functions of Cholesterol
Found in every body cellPart of skin tissueTransports essential fatty acidsNeeded to produce hormones
2. Types of Cholesterol
LDL Bad for you
HDL Healthy for you
3. The body manufactures all the cholesterol it needs.
4. Cholesterol is present in all animal tissue.
Cholesterol is not present in plants.
E. Fatty Acids
1. Saturated Fats Come from an animal source Solid at room temperature Raise the LDL and HDL levels of
cholesterol in the blood. Examples: butter, Crisco, margarine, lard, meat, poultry skin, whole milk
Essential Fatty Acids
2. Polyunsaturated fats Lowers both LDL and HDL levels of
cholesterol. Found in vegetable oils, and fish,
walnuts, pumpkin or sunflower seeds, margarine, salad dressings, mayonnaise
Essential Fatty Acids
3. Monounsaturated fats Best type of fat Lower LDL and raise HDL levels. Found in both animals and plants Examples: olive oil, canola oil, peanut
oil, avocados, and peanuts
4. Also watch for
Trans FatRaises LDL “bad” cholesterolLowers HDL “good” cholesterolProduced through hydrogenation
of oils. When a liquid oil is made into a
solid fat. “hydrogenated oil” or “partially”
Contribution of Various Foods to Trans Fat Intake
Baked goods – 40%
Animal products – 21%
Margarine – 17%Fried potatoes –
8%
Potato chips, corn chips, popcorn – 5%
Shortening used at home – 4%
Other – 5%
Daily Grams (g) of Saturated Fat per Calorie Level(<10% of calories)
18 g or less (1,600)
20 g or less (2,000)
24 g or less (2,200)
25 g or less (2,500)
G. More Smart Choices
Choose a vegetable oil or soft margarine in place of butter or animal fats.
Vary protein sources – choose beans, nuts and seeds and fish as an alternative to meat and poultry.
Eat fried foods and commercial baked goods in moderation.
Oils and solid fats are not created equal!
Choose leaner meats and low-fat dairy
Choose healthier forms of cooking.
Check Nutrition labels to stay within your limits!!!
