Fat and the cholesterol guidelines and recommendations
Of all the nutrients we know the carbs, proteins, fats, vitamins and vitamins fats are the most confusing and the most dangerous.
From diabetes to hypertension, from cancer to arteriosclerosis its all fats.
One of the most important and extremely useful decision you can make in your nutrition life is to cut down on fats of all kinds the saturated and the unsaturated.
Our recommendations for fats are that it should not exceed the total caloric intake by 25% by proportion. The saturated variety should not exceed more than 10%.
Here comes the important role of choosing the foods we eat.
Dairy products are high in fat. Meat is very high in fat. It's said that more than 50 % of calories in meat comes from fat.
This however should not become for you to cut down on fats totally or meat for that matter.
Moderate
consumption is still advisable.
Animal products and dairy products have a large proportion of saturated fatty acids whereas the fruits and vegetables section have a lot of unsaturated fatty acids.
Good for your body and good for your heart.
Also the fact that cholesterol is in maximum amounts in animal products should be remembered with every meat serving.
I would like to repeat the general rule of thumb.
Fats not more than 25% of daily intake. Saturated less than 10%, the lesser the better.
Eating meat and its products without the skin is also an excellent way to go as it reduces the cholesterol consumption by a good margin.
Again please do not starve yourself
Follow our guidelines and you will do just fine.
