The reason to switch this out is to help your body’s fat levels. There are 2 kinds of fat in the body and they need to keep each other in check. You do need fat in your body in order for it to function properly.
Fat is NOT bad, let me tell you why:
Your brain is made up of fat and needs it to function, but you need the good fats for energy, cell growth and regeneration. Your body also needs good fats to absorb nutrients and produce hormones. So fats are GOOD, just make sure you know the difference and choose the better!
Bad Fat vs Goos Fat
The “bad” fat is called LDL and the “good” fat is called HDL in your body. When you choose the LDL fat you are building the cholesterol and fat in your body as storage. If you simply build the HDL in your body it will fight cholesterol.
When you eat fried foods, those are always from the “bad fat” category- hence the reason to switch it out. Build those good fats and help your body function properly! Get a steamer and lightly steam those veggies so that they retain their color but still have a crunch.
Good fat choices include: avocados, coconut oil, olive oil, young white coconuts, soaked raw nuts and flax seed oil and hemp seed oil to name a few.
