Why does fat always get a bad rap? I believe 2011 is the year to let people know that there are fats out there that actually work toward promoting good health. Fascinating right? Ladies and gentlemen may I have your attention please? The body actually likes fats called monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, which can possibly lower your "BAD" cholesterol (LDL) among some other charming performances. According to the American Heart Association, the average person can consume around 50-70 grams of total fat each day.
Healthy Tip of the Day: Try replacing your mayonnaise with a heart healthy avocado slice. You know, the green stuff that people use to make guacamole out of... Avocados are packed full of nutrients, such as B-Vitamins, high in fiber, and monounsaturated fats (aka the fats your body likes).
