canned tuna in olive oil is really high in healthy fats...also I eat a lot of peanut butter everyday and also peanuts and pistachios. I eat like 80-90 g of fat a day haha but it's mostly healthy. I suggest watching your saturated fat intake and not worrying much about fat.0

I am on a pistachio kick right now... I also eat alot of Almonds and this time of year for some reason I get a craving for whole green olives..... Peanut butter is always a good source too... Good Luck...0

I just started taking coconut oil...14 g fat per tbs serving 125 cals...I got the barleans cold pressed virgin oil..don't get refined, it has lots some of its nutrients...
I put the table spoon in my protein drink, but u can cook with it or just eat it off the spoon! I bet it would be good in oatmeal too!! It comes in a solid(ish) form but is easily mix able!!
Fat is the hardest macro for me to hit!
Good luck!!!0 -
Olive oil, walnuts, almonds, salmon, Smart Balance butter , flaxseeds (I like in oatmeal) are some ways I get the HDL increasing effects in foods. I also take a fish oil suppliment daily. Exercise, weight loss, and not smoking increase HDL. My HDL and LDL and triliglicerides were in great ranges at my MD visit last month and I was taken off my Statin medication---all attributed to lifestyle changes over the last 6 months.0
