Fat In Foods Is Not Your Enemy
Fats aren’t the enemy that some people have made them out to be. In food, there are several types of fat. One study, called the POUNDS LOST trial, discovered that people on high-fat and low-fat diets achieved the same results. The results depend on eating “healthy” fats and avoiding cholesterol-raising trans fats.
Monounsaturated fat is the “healthiest of all fats,” according to senior UCLA Dietitian Dana Hunnes. Polyunsaturated fats include omega-3s and omega-6s, the healthy fats found in fish and plant-based oils. “Full-fat dairy products, nuts, and plant-based fats promote weight loss, not inhibit it,” explains Dietitian and Nutritionist Eliza Savage.
