Eating fat doesn’t make you fat

Do fatty foods make you fat? And the answer is NO. But it all comes down to the type of fat you eat. Eating the right kinds of fat can actually make you leaner. Got the last phrase, yes it’s true. Obviously the type of fats to avoid are the processed, hydrogenated fats found in junk foods, ready meals and processed foods etc. 

 

Naturally occurring fats in unprocessed foods boost your immune system and are actually vital if you want to slim down. Here is a very simple way to work out which fat sources are healthy, and which are unhealthy. Just ask yourself these questions before making your food choices: For fruit, vegetable, nut and all other plant based sources- “Is it natural, minimally processed and organic? Or has it been chemically altered and heavily processed?”; Animal based foods (dairy, meat, fish etc)- “Is it from a free range, wild or grass-fed animal? Or is it from a mass production, controlled farm environment?” In both cases, fats from natural, free range, organic sources are far healthier than those from man-altered, mass-produced food. Once you get used to asking yourself these questions you’ll find it easy to make healthy food choices and your lbs will start falling off :-)
