London - Saba:
A recent study from Harvard University revealed the effects of different fat intake patterns on human health, highlighting the difference between butter and vegetable oils.
The nutritional data of more than 221,000 people over 50 years was analyzed, and the results showed that replacing butter with any type of vegetable oil can reduce the risk of death by 20%. It was also found that consuming butter is associated with a 15% increased risk of death compared to vegetable oils.
The study showed that consuming an additional 10 grams of vegetable oils per day reduces the risk of death from cancer by 11% and reduces the risk of death from heart disease by 6%. While increasing the consumption of butter by the same amount increases the risk of death from cancer by 12%.
The study recommended preferring vegetable oils such as corn, olive and soybean oils, due to their content of unsaturated fats that are beneficial to the heart. On the other hand, butter contains harmful saturated fats, which contribute to increased cholesterol and increase the risk of heart disease and stroke.
Despite the benefits of vegetable oils, some studies have shown that seed oils may increase the risk of certain diseases such as diabetes and Alzheimer's because they contain omega-6 acids that may contribute to promoting inflammation in the body.
In conclusion, experts advocate the use of vegetable oils as a healthier option, with the need for more research to understand their long-term effects on health.
