Clinical Protocol

7-Day Trans-Fat Detox Plan

A critical elimination diet to remove industrial trans-fats (partially hydrogenated oils) from the body and repair cellular membrane damage.

Protocol Objectives
Label Vigilance

Scan for 'Partially Hydrogenated' oils. Even products saying '0g Trans Fat' can contain up to 0.5g per serving. Avoid them entirely.

Bakery Ban

Commercial baked goods (donuts, pie crusts, biscuits) are the primary source of solid trans fats. Eliminate strictly.

Fried Food Ban

Deep fryer oil is often hydrogenated for stability. Avoid all deep-fried foods.

Membrane Repair

Consume high quality phospholipids (egg yolks, krill oil) to replace damaged lipids in cell walls.

Margarine vs Butter

Never eat margarine or vegetable shortening. Real butter is biologically safe; solidified vegetable oils are toxic to cell membranes.

Ruminant Trans Fats

Natural trans fats (CLA) found in dairy and meat are DIFFERENT and healthy. Do not fear natural trans fats; fear the industrial ones.
