- Cheeses.
- Low fat milk and yoghurt.
- Any kind of biscuits, pastries, cakes, muffins, doughnuts.
- Cow’s milk and dairy products are best avoided altogether as the protein is likely to be as much of a problem as the saturated fat, given recent evidence.
- Soy products or rice or oat milk are good substitutes.
- Snacks like chips, corn chips, party foods
- Margarine, shortening, chocolate, coconut and palm oil.
- Fied and deep fried foods except those fried without oil or with just a dash of olive oil.
- It is important not to heat oils if possible., and if you want to use just a little extra virgin olive oil, the most stable of the oils, it is a good idea to put a little water in with it when frying to keep its temperature down.
- Things like fish and chips deep fried in, soy, sunflower oil, are bad, in that the oil changes its chemical structure when heated in this way, and tends to be left in the vat for days, with all sorts of unpredictable chemical changes happening to the fats.
