Yet Another Reason to Seek Out Healthier Fats
You’ve probably heard that certain types of fats are better than others in terms of keeping you heart-healthy. Now there’s more good news: Scientists now know that when people use healthier fats instead of the less desirable fats, they lower their total body fat and burn more calories after a meal.
Here’s the lowdown on fats:
Healthier fats = Monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats. These are found in certain oils (olive, peanut, canola), many nuts, some seeds, and avocados.
Less desirable fats = Saturated fats and trans fats. Saturated fats are found in foods like bacon, butter, full-fat cream cheese, and sour cream. Trans fats are found in many packaged baked goods (cookies, crackers), margarine and shortening.
