Cooking Fatty Fish & Omega-3s: Do Baking, Broiling, Frying in Different Oils, or Microwaving Affect DHA, EPA & Co?

Written by | published on

The good news is: Frying fish is not as bad as you may have thought it was. The oxylipin content even decreases. I won't tell you something you didn't know already when I quote from the introduction of a recent paper in Food Science and Nutrition  that "[s]tudies show that a decreased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) is correlated with a diet high in long-chain (LC) omega-3 (n-3) polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA)" (Flaskerud 2017)" and remind you that, outside of supplements, the primary dietary source of LCn-3 PUFA is fatty fish (Mori, 2014). Against that background, it is of paramount (health) importance that you don't damage the precious and oxidative not exactly stable DHA and EPA in your fish during the cooking/frying/baking process.

If the frying time is short (2-5 min) and the heat not extreme, it's no problem to fry with virgin olive oil. If that's not the case there are better options . You will probably remember my Facebook post about olive oil having recently become the first food that may officially call itself heart healthy in the European union. As MarĂ­a-Isabel Covas et al. point out in their latest paper, this leave a key question for the consumer unanswered: Which olive oil is the for you and your health? And how strong is the evidence it's actually going to make a sign. health difference (Buckland. 2015)? In today's SuppVersity article I am going to answer these question and then turn to another, related issue: The alleged health-hazards of cooking and frying with vegetable oils as they were reviewed by Carmen Sayon-Orea (2015) and Carmen Dobarganes (2015): Lean more about frying & co at the SuppVersity The Quest for the Optimal Frying Oil MUFA Modulates Gut Bacteria →...

The oil is not the only thing that's damaged, when you're frying foods; and acrylamide is only the most prominent of these nasty compounds. Alright, it's about time to acquit myself of a longstanding promise: the promise to finally write the unofficial second part to my article on cooking oils & fats from February 2014 that busted the myth of the "healthy" saturated cooking oils and fats ( read more ). It's an "unofficial" part II, because the previous article was actually intended to be "just" a rebuttal to the unwarranted craze about using butter, lard & co to fry in order to protect yourself from developing heart disease and other nasty ailments. Needless to say that this part is going to focus on purportedly healthier alternatives ranging from high-oleic acid sunflower and canola oil to another often hyped dietary fat: coconut oil.

Rosemary and Garlic Steak - This is only one out of thousand recipes you will find all over the Internet that inform you how to use rosemary and reap (some) of the health benefits (thing about dosage for taste vs. for medical effects) I am about to outline in todoay's SuppVersity article. I know that I still owe you the 2nd par of the "Perfect Frying Oil" series, and I promise I will write it as soon as I have found convincing evidence to argue that there actually is a "perfect frying oil". In the mean time, I'd suggest you focus on the "tricks" I am about to reveal in today's SuppVersity article and produce your own no-bullshit-bulletproof frying oil by adding... no, not butter and coconut oil, but sage, thyme, and rosemary. If you belong to the extremely studious 10% of the SuppVersity students, you will probably remember that you can easily produce an anti-bacterial marinade based on green tea, lemon and turmeric ( read more ).
