Many dieters are afraid of fats in their diet.
According to popular belief, it is these components that prevent you from being slim.
Therefore, some people who want to lose excess weight make a grave mistake - they minimize the fat content of their diet.
The result is often… excess weight.
Why Fats Are Important
Firstly, these components make a person feel fuller.
Secondly, fats are important for the endocrine system and metabolism.
Therefore, giving up fats on a diet is fraught with serious consequences. Firstly, due to the emerging feeling of hunger, the risk of "breakdown" will be very high.
Secondly, a very low fat diet can lead to health problems and slower weight loss.
Therefore, minimizing the fat content of the diet is the wrong strategy.
A person needs 1 gram of fat per 1 kilogram of weight per day. On a diet, the figure can be reduced to 0.7-0.8 grams per 1 kilogram of weight. But not to 0.5 grams: this approach is unlikely to help you lose weight. Rather, the opposite.
It is desirable that fats make up 20-30 percent of the daily caloric intake.
Focus on sources of healthy fats: fatty fish, nuts, avocados.
Sometimes you can eat a little butter, fatty cheese and even lard.
Important reminder: Before making any major dietary changes, consult your doctor.
