Fat, It slows you down and clogs you up. It is a blot – rather a blob-- on your figure. And far worse, dietary fat can reduce your life expectancy by increasing the risk of heart disease, cancer and stroke. Though there may be a strong genetic factor at work, for the most part these conditions are preventable. And if caught early enough, arteriosclerosis which can lead to heart disease and stroke. Can even be reversed. Exercising regularly is a big step in the right direction. Step two is to begin trimming the extra fat off your body and out of your food.

A Tour of the Fat Farm Actually, not all fats are equally bad. The most important kind to cut back on is saturated, fat, the type found in red meat and whole-hilk dairy products. It tends to increase the levels of harmful low density lipoprotein(LDL) cholesterol in the blood, even more than cholesteraol-rich foods raise these levels. And it is the LDL cholesterol that is linked to increased risk of developing problems in the arteries that nourish the heart(Coronary artery disease) and to increased risk of heart attack.

There are also “good “ fats polyunsaturated fats. Unlike saturated fats, which almost always come from land animals, unsaturated fats tend to come from plants and fish. Corn oil, for example is an unsaturated fat. (Exceptions:coconut and palm oil, frequently added to processed foods, are saturated fats.) The polyunsaturated fats can help lower the levels of the bad,LDL cholesterol while maintaining high levels of benefical high density lipoprotein(HDL) cholesterol, the kind that may escort cholesterol out of the cells. But this is the true only if the amount of polyunsaturatses is equal to the amount of saturated fats which is not the case for most burger eating Americans

Have a Great Day.
