And with the increasing hype over “heart healthy” vegetable oils and their sky-rocketed consumption level, it’s no wonder people have questions about these highly over-recommended products. It’s hard to eat healthy. It’s hard to eat the right foods (and find healthy, natural supplements) that help your body thrive.
