Don't Use a Fat-Free Dressing!

Transformation Tip 👇👇👇

Don't use a fat-free dressing on your salad! 

A recent study published in Molecular Nutrition & Food Research, found that nutrients in salads were actually absorbed better when paired with an oil - a source of fat. 

The study fed participants salads with dressings made primarily either from monounsaturated, polyunsaturated and saturated fat. 

Each salad was served with 3 grams, 8 grams and 20 grams from fat from each of the three dressings. Blood tests were then performed to measure the absorption of fat-soluble nutrients such as carotenoids,  lutein, lycopene, beta-carotene, and zeaxanthin - all of which have been linked to decreasing risk of cancer, cardiovascular disease, and macular degeneration. 

What researchers found was a dose dependant response amongst the polyunsaturated and saturated fat dressings- meaning more added fat resulted in greater nutrient absorption. What does this mean for you? 

Transforming your body has more to do with getting the right nutrients rather than counting and cutting calories. 

Add Shar’s Amazing Secret Dressing to your salads and vegetables to ensure optimum absorption of nutrients that fuel an amazing, healthy life!

Have a great week!
