A proper and balanced diet should include proteins, carbohydrates and fats.

The absence of any of the components can only lead to problems with well-being.

At the same time, many who strive to have a great figure may refuse fats, believing that they only do harm and bring new centimeters to the waist.

This is wrong.

Healthy fats are essential for the body.

Nutritionist Natalia Denisov explained that a deficiency of saturated fats is just as harmful as their excess: these components support the functions of cell membranes and improve the absorption of vitamins.

For this reason, if a person always chooses low-fat products, this can lead to hormonal imbalances and deterioration of appearance, reports aif.ru.

Denisova also added in a conversation with journalists that unsaturated fats are considered more useful - omega-3 and omega-6. They can be found in avocados, fatty fish, almonds, peanuts, tofu, olive oil.
