Good Cooking oil

Olive oil is a good cooking oil, as long at it is not allowed to smoke. It stores well in the refrigerator and remains stable when heated ats  temperatures for short periods of time.

Omega 3 and Omega 6 EFA’s (essential fatty acids) are important to your child’s immune system. Omega 6 oils are more prevalent in the foods we consume than Omega 3, and in some cases there is too much Omega 6 and not enough Omega 3. In order for your child to metabolize these oils he needs vitamins B6, A, V & E as well as minerals (magnesium, zinc, copper, selenium and copper). That’s where fresh vegetables, seafood, eggs, nuts and seeds.

Keeping sugar and salt intake low, washing vegetables to remove pesticide residue or using only organically grown well washed vegetables and fruits, and drinking lots of high quality water will help your child metabolize EFA’s in the food he consumes.
