Other oils are healthier (
less saturated), but I recommend
eating whole (unprocessed) foods whenever possible and so
encourage people to avoid oils in part for the same reason I
encourage people to avoid avoid white bread and added
sugars — the nutrient to calorie density of these foods (something Dr. Fuhrman famously talks about in his work) is exceedingly low.
In addition to recommending
less meat, the report concludes that Americans should be
encouraged to
eat low levels of
sugar - sweetened foods and drinks, and low levels of refined grains.
