Knowing the Difference between Healthy Fats & Un-Healthy Fats

healthy-fatThere is a common misconception that all fats should be avoided.  The fact of the matter is some fats are essential for our health.  Some fats are needed in your diet so it is not good to eliminate all fats from your meals.  Fat is actually necessary for you to drop weight.  It depends on the source of food you are getting it from.  Examples of foods containing healthy fats are salmon, olive oil and even dark chocolate.  Unhealthy fats include saturated and trans fats.  Sources of unhealthy fats are eggs, meat and dairy.  Everything in moderation is key to a successful weight loss.  A healthy dose of appropriate fat can go along way!
