Fatty foods may be avoided or eliminated in one's diet thinking it does more harm than good. But who would have thought that some of these fatty foods that are being avoided are a total myth? Consuming fatty food may not be harmful as long as it is in moderation. Too much of everything can indeed result to something hazardous, but a little won't hurt. It can actually be good for you. The Rodale's Organic Life website was able to debunk some of the fat myth that most individuals believed to be true.
Eating Fat Makes You Fat
As per the website, can be the total opposite. Truth is, "Fat can actually fill you up so you eat less." Michelle Babb, MS, Rd, who is the author of Anti-Inflammatory 'Eating Made Easy' stated that it has more calories per gram than carbs in protein. "It's true that fat has more calories per gram than carbs and protein, but eating the right types of fat as part of a healthy, balanced diet does not make you fat"
As per the studies, it was stated that fat is slower to digest then carbs, which stimulates the excretion of satiety hormones, which can actually prevent over eating.
The Daily Burn Website then gave out a list of foods that can easily fill you up.
Eating cholesterol rich eggs raises blood cholesterol levels.
As per the website, "The cholesterol you eat has little or NO CONNECTION to the cholesterol in your blood. They then added that the U.S. Dietary Guidelines Advice Committee dropped their advice to restrict cholesterol.
Babb then added: "It's a protein powerhouse that's one of the best food sources of choine, a neurotransmitter associated with memory and cognitive function,"
Red meat is not a part of a healthy diet.
As of the website, processed meat needs to be avoided but unprocessed ones can be good for you. A research was done in Warsaw University which fund out that "those who ate the most processed meats-think salt-laden sausage and deli meats-were twice as likely to die of heart failure than those who ate less." Which simply means that there's a distinction between processed mean and non GMO ones.
