Isikhathi esithile, amanoni kwakuyidemoni lomhlaba odlayo onempilo. Ungathola inketho ephansi yamafutha ngokoqobo noma yini esitolo. Izinkampani zibabeke njengezinketho ezinempilo ngenkathi zibapompa zigcwele ushukela ukugcina ukunambitheka. Ngokumangazayo, iMelika yaba umlutha wezinto ezimhlophe-nje ngesikhathi sokubona ukuthi empeleni bekuyisitha sonke lesi sikhathi.

Kancane kancane sike sathola ukuthi "ushukela amafutha amasha." Ushukela uyisithako sokuqala lapho izazi zokudla kanye nezazi zokudla zifuna u-nix, futhi kusolwa isikhumba esesabekayo, ukuxubana kokuxakaniseka, kanye nengozi eyengeziwe yokukhuluphala kanye nesifo senhliziyo. Khonamanjalo, ukwatapheya, i-EVOO, kanye namafutha kakhukhunathi ayanconywa ngemithombo yawo enempilo yamafutha nangazo zonke izinto ezinhle abangazenzela umzimba wakho. Pho sifike kanjani ngempela endaweni lapho amafutha ayenqatshelwe kwasekuqaleni?

Sinayo ngokusemthethweni impendulo: konke kube umkhonyovu kashukela.

Imibhalo yangaphakathi esanda kukhishwa evela embonini kashukela ikhombisa ukuthi cishe iminyaka engama-50 yocwaningo ibichemile yimboni; ngawo-1960, iqembu lezohwebo lemboni elibizwa ngokuthi i-Sugar Research Foundation (manje eyi-Sugar Association) yakhokhela abacwaningi ukuba banciphise izingozi zokudla zikashukela ngenkathi bekhomba amafutha agcwele njengembangela yesifo senhliziyo, okwenza ingxoxo ezungeze ushukela emashumini eminyaka kamuva, ngokocwaningo olusha olushicilelwe ngoMsombuluko ngo I-JAMA Imithi Yangaphakathi.

Ngasekuqaleni kweminyaka yama-1960, kwakukhona ubufakazi obandayo obukhombisa ukuthi ukudla okunamafutha amancane noshukela ophakeme kungadala ukwanda kwamazinga e-serum cholesterol (aka cholesterol embi ephakamisa ubungozi besifo senhliziyo). Ukuze kuvikelwe ukuthengisa ushukela namasheya ezimakethe, iSugar Research Foundation yathuma uD.Mark Hegsted, uprofesa wezokudla eHarvard School of Public Health, ukuthi aqedele ukubuyekeza kocwaningo okubeke phansi kakhulu ukuxhumana phakathi kukashukela nesifo senhliziyo (CHD) .

Ukubuyekezwa, "Amafutha Okudla, Ama-Carbohydrate kanye Nezifo Ze-Atherosclerotic," kushicilelwe kuhlonishwa I-New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) ngo-1967, futhi yaphetha ngokuthi "kwakungangabazeki" ukuthi ukungenelela kokudla kuphela okudingekayo ukuvimbela i-CHD kwakuwukunciphisa i-cholesterol yokudla kanye nokufaka amafutha e-polyunsaturated esikhundleni samafutha agcwele ekudleni kwaseMelika," ngokusho koMsombuluko. JAMA iphepha. Ngokuphindisela, uHegsted nabanye abacwaningi bakhokhelwa cishe ama- $ 50,000 kumadola anamuhla. Ngaleso sikhathi, i-NEJM yayingadingi ukuthi abacwaningi badalule imithombo yezimali noma ukungqubuzana kwezintshisekelo okungenzeka (okwaqala ngo-1984), ngakho-ke ithonya lemboni yabashukela ekusithekeni laligcinwa lisongwa.

Ingxenye esabisa kakhulu ukuthi umkhonyovu kashukela awuzange uhlale ugcinwe emhlabeni wezocwaningo kuphela; U-Hegsted uqhubeke waba yinhloko yezondla eMnyangweni Wezolimo wase-United States, lapho ngo-1977 wasiza khona ukuhlela ukwandulela umhlahlandlela wokudla kahulumeni wesifundazwe, ngokusho kwe New York Times. Kusukela lapho, isimo sombuso mayelana nokudla okunomsoco (kanye noshukela ikakhulukazi) asimile. Eqinisweni, i-USDA ekugcineni wanezela isincomo sokudla sokunciphisa ukudla okushukela ekubuyekezeni kwabo kwe-2015 eziqondisweni zokudla ezisemthethweni-cishe iminyaka engu-60 ngemuva kokuvela kobufakazi obubonisa ukuthi ushukela wenzani ngempela emizimbeni yethu.

Izindaba ezimnandi ukuthi amazinga obala ocwaningo okungenani angconywana namuhla (yize kungenjalo lapho kufanele abe khona-bheka nje la macala ocwaningo lwewayini elibomvu olwakhiwe) nokuthi sazi kakhulu uma sekufika ezingozini zoshukela. Uma kukhona, futhi kuyisikhumbuzo sokuthatha konke okuncane kocwaningo ngenhlamvu kasawoti-er, ushukela.
