Eating fat is good for you.
Yep.
You
read that correctly.
Eating fat is good
for you.
It is a general misnomer that
all fat is bad and that all fat leads to
heart attacks and obesity.
I’m not
suggesting that you go out and eat a
bunch of processed fats, such as ice
cream and cake, but instead fill your
diet with Essential Fatty Acids, or
EFAs.
These fats are commonly found
in foods such as fish, nuts and seeds.
As the name implies, Essential Fatty
Acids are essential to good health
and proper functioning of the body.
The body cannot manufacture EFAs,
so they must be introduced through
food and/or supplements.
You may
be asking why would we need to eat
fat and how can it possibly be good
for us?
There are 2 main categories of
essential fatty acids — omega-3s
and omega-6s.
Like most families of
supplements, these should be taken in
a specific ratio in order for the body
to process and use them properly.
