Summary of Fats Series (6 of 6)

To jump start this blog, I will be doing a series on "Fats." I'm excited to begin this journey learning about fats because it's everyone's favorite topic and one that is highly controversial. Let's begin.

We have been learning about the different types of fats, the good and the bad, and why eating healthy fats are important for our health. If you didn't get a chance to read the previous posts, do take a look at this excellent 18-minute video. It may just be one of the best things you learn today.

If you are into reading and would like to learn more about this topic, this book Eat Fat, Lose Fat: The Healthy Alternative to Trans Fats is a must-read!

My family has now replaced our cooking oil with coconut oil. We also no longer use margarine and have reduced our consumption of processed foods to avoid trans fats. What is hard for me to stop using is processed sauces especially for cooking. I hope in time as I learn more about nutrition, I can find healthier alternatives to these sauces.

"Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies." - 1 Corinthians 6:19-20
