Does Fat Make You Fat?
There is much more debate in recent years on whether saturated fats
are really the bad guy they’ve been made out to be. A far worse culprit,
not just for weight gain, but also serious health problems like heart
disease, has been found in the trans and hydrogenated fats found in margarine and the vegetable oil shortening used in so many processed foods.
There is also a lot of scientific evidence that the massive increase in refined carbohydrates
are a much more effective weight gain trigger, and they, not saturated
fat, are behind the rocketing levels of obesity and related diseases.
If you would like to understand the common foods that really cause
weight gain and how to use certain kinds of fats to stop feeling hungry
and stimulate thermogenic fat burning, then take a different approach to
weight loss.
Getting back to your ideal weight isn’t about counting calories or
over exercising. It’s not about eating less and you don’t have to go
hungry. It can be as simple as eating the right foods at the right times to ramp up your metabolism for more effective weight loss.
One of those metabolism enhancing foods are avocados with their high
levels of beneficial monounsaturated fats. Here’s why it’s worth adding
more, not less avocado to your diet if you want to lose weight.
