Eat Fat To Lose Fat

Have you also been avoiding fat?

Well don't worry; you aren’t alone, many are in the same boat!
For years, we have been scared into thinking that fat is the bad guy in the nutrition world!

Thankfully fat has redeemed itself in the eyes of health experts.

BUT Not all fats in oils are made equal. 

It really all depends on the kind and quality of oil you are consuming.

Here are some of our favorite oils to consume:

• Olive oil, which has been used for thousands of years in the Middle East.
• Coconut oil, butter from grass fed cows, ghee (purified butter).
• Fats from whole foods - avocado, seeds, nuts, olives …

All of these can help promote health, well being and weight loss.

While trans fats in processed low quality vegetable oils (soy, corn, canola etc) used in industrialized, packaged foods (in margarine, low calorie spreads, crisps, biscuits, processed baked goods, fast foods etc) are toxic hydrogenated fats, produced at very high temperatures with chemicals and are extremely damaging to the body.
They promote inflammation, which is one of the reasons for diseases and weight gain.

Good fats are essential for:

• optimum brain, eye and digestive function
• energy levels
• hormone production
• intestinal absorption of vitamins A, D, E & K
