    I eat a very low fat diet, about 15 percent of my total intake is from fat.

    I have a little fat that I add to food throughout the day, say 1 tablespoon of hummus to my sandwich (as a spread), or a popping 2 servings of popcorn in a tablespoon of canola oil.

    I prefer to not get my fats from meat, cheese, or things like that.

    why are so many people afraid to eat fats. i eat anywhere from 40-80% of calories from fat per day. i love the energy i get from doing so.

    Fat doesn't help you digest other food.

    That's not what was said...

    "Fat aids in digestion and absorption of nutrients..."
