Dietary Fats: Types, Importance, and Addition to the Diet
I am writing this to address a new trend---eating too little fat. No doubt due to the low-fat fad of the 80's, many people today believe that losing fat can be as easy as cutting it out of the diet. It seems logical: eat less fat, have less fat. However, that's not the case. The fat you eat isn't just absorbed by the fat…

Man, that was so good!
I haven't really allowed myself peanut butter in several months. I guess I just look at it as too much fat and calories for the little bit you can have. I have just been craving it SOO much. (I used to eat it by the spoonfull!). And the fact is, we NEED fat in our diets. Fat isn't what makes us fat....it's how much we eat…
