Today I share with you why I no longer cook with oil. Here is the link to the Tasty Oil Free Kitchen Masterclass that I mention at the end of the video: …
Italy is considered the healthiest nation in the world and they eat olive oil all the time. Please don't talk about these subjects unless you're a health expert because some gullible people will definitely follow your lead.
I was enjoying your videos until you posted this
I would love to join you, but I work next Sunday during the time of your class (US time). Is there an asynchronous way to get the information without taking a ticket from someone who can attend? if so, what is the price? Either way, thanks for all you do.
You are so right! Thank you.
Anja, You may not use oil but you cook alot with fat!!! Have you looked at how much fat is in Cashews? You use other nuts as well. All
High fat!
Well…there goes my 20 plus jars of coconut oil straight in the bin!! 🙂
So if you don’t cook or use oil, do you eat olives or sunflower seeds?
If you do, don’t you still consume oil as isn’t the oil obtained from pressing these?
Asking as I’m interested in the answer to understand this better as I do also follow another oil free You Tuber.
Thanks
Your a wonderful person..thank you!
Your channel was one of my early vegan influences, so grateful for all your delicious and healthy recipes. The first time I saw your vegan 'egg' salad recipe I realised any recipe could be made healthy and vegan. Huge thanks for your years of healthy positive influence in the vegan world, Anja.
How about indian Ghee. Which is better refind butter and beening used for thousands of years and people also drinks it. Our forefathers had healthy and long life but declined since white sugar was introduced.
I would like to have your views on consuming nuts and other plant based fats like tofu and avacado for patient suffering with heart disease?
Hi Anya, I cooked a delicious pasta using a plant-based pesto sauce today. Problem was it was loaded with oil. When you have time, I would LOVE it if you had a simple recipe to make a nice vegan pesto sauce that could be stirred in (cooked or not) into spaghetti 🙂
Please note that you DO need healthy fats in moderation in your diet. Avoiding them will have adverse effects on your health. Using oils in moderation will not kill you.
Thank you Anya, you are a gift from heaven!!!!! Xx
Can we eat nuts, seeds, coconut, tahini, avocados, etc. as much as we like to get fats? I’ve lost alot of weight going vegan, no oil, and would prefer not to lose more 🤔
I will not ever use oil again I had no idea Thankyou 💖
I’ve been vegan for over 20 years but it never occurred to me that oil was unhealthy. Olive oil enjoyed a reputation as a health food for years and every vegan recipe started off with sweating onion and garlic in oil! Thank goodness for the SOS free movement. I just wish I’d known before.
I love love love this video, what she is saying is dead on point. I have been whole food plant base for three years now. But I recently discovered the dangers of cooking oils. I am currently transitioning from using oils and the research I have come across is outstanding.
Is grapeseed, avocado, ghee, and coconut oil harmful when used sparingly? I rarely use oils but when I do I use those referenced because my stainless steel cookware is not nonstick. Nonstick cookware is harmful, toxic and studies have proven that it causes cancer.
Kindered spirit 🙂
Thank you
Thanks I was diagnosed with heart disease December. I started this oil free journey too. Oil is horrible for a healthy lifestyle. Thanks for offering this cooking class❤️
Thanks for helping to get the REAL information out!!!!
No folks, there are NO healthy oils!!!!
Reference the research of subject experts like Dr. Lawrence Rudel and Dr. Robert Vogel who have studied the effects of all fats and oils (sat, monounsat, polyunsat, cis and trans) and have found that ALL of the oils contribute to the inflammation and subsequent death of the arterial lining called the endothelium with cumulative result being heart disease.
Oil is neither beneficial nor necessary!
These facts are further amplified by the clinical results of Caldwell Esselstyn!
Avoid oil – ALL oil! If you do this you will note how little marketed prepared and packaged food – from (most!!!) otherwise healthy foods like commercial hummus to most whole grain bread, are Not healthy as the manufacturers go out of their way to add various oils to many foods that might otherwise be healthy options – hummus being a prime example!!!
And also please go very lightly on the high oil content whole plant foods!
Enjoy!
I get horrible inflammation from oils. Just 1tsp of olive oil on my salad and I feel like I'm 90yrs old. My knees, my neck my back!!! My hormones go crazy, depression too!!!!! It sucks because I hate salad without lemon and oil….no matter how long I'm wfpd….i need to stay away from fats in general….but oil kills me.
Easy on that. beautiful woman. Like your recipes.
I hate oil. I haven't had it for over a year and will not be eating it again. Bores when people try telling me that I need to eat it 🤮🤮🤮
I'm with ya. I only take and cook with MCT Oil. But I need that for digestion due to Chronic Pancreatitus. Other that that, no oils. I cook in a steamer and air fryer. Great video, thanks.
Awesome story!!! I'm from Greece and in my social circle i'm the only one cooking without oil and your videos have helped me a lot!!! Thnx, many kisses!!!
Thank you!😀
Dr. John McDougall set me straight about the uselessness of oil. They don’t even know the truth in health food stores! Keep preaching, Girl – love your recipes. 😌👌🏻🍀
Dr Esslestyn says no oil especially if you have heart disease. I am fighting Diastolic Congestive Heart Failure diagnosed last June. Learning to recook
Very important how much food you consume.
Great public message! I've been on PBD and no or very low oil.
