fat has gotten a bad rap in the last few years
there are good fats and bad fat
moderation is the answer
if you eat too much good fats they can be bad for you
fats help the body absorb the fat soluble vitamins
a d e k
we got to have them to live
eating good fats can lower your risk for heart disease
diabetes high cholesterol and obesity
heres the ones to eat
mono unsaturated fats
these are found in plant foods
nuts avocados (yes its is ok to eat them) olive oil cannola oil and
in poultry
they help lower your cholesterol levels and blood pressure
eg i eat a handful of mixed nuts a day
poly unsaturated fats
found in fatty fish such as salmon and mackerel and in corn and
soybean oils
they improve cholesterol levels and reduce your heart disease risk
saturated fats
found in meats and dairy products such as milk cheese and butter
theyve got a bad rap in the past but in moderation are actually
ok to eat
HERES THE ONE NOT TO EAT
this is the bad one
TRANS fat
its not a natural fat
the other ones if youll notice are all found naturally in nature
this one is mostly made by humans
and is a real bad one for you to eat
its in processed foods
its found in fried foods packaged snacks and shortening
its used as it increases the shelf life of foods
just leave out a trans fat hamburger or fries and see how
long it lasts
dont put it in the land field since the plastic bag will decompose
before the burger and fries will
it also increases the shelf life of those fat cells on your buttocks
thighs and tummys
it raises your bad cholesterol and lowers your good cholesterol
think of it as an anti cholesterol drug
ie it makes it go up instead of down
its an antistatin drug
is this the one of the causes of the obesity epidemic in the us
yes
if you eat the right amount of good fat you can actually loose weight
say what
the good fat can suppress you appetite some
try eating a handful of nuts for a snack and youll find youll be less
hungry
good fats and the bad bad trans fat
NICE PIC
heres a picture of a field near where i walk
