Fat is found in animal food including dairy, and in plant food.

Fats are divided into Saturated fat, Monounsaturated fats and Polyunsaturated fats
Fats are also known as Omega 3 and Omega 6 and 9 fatty acids.

The very bad fat is Trans fat and Hydrogenated fat, these are found in fast food, fried food, processed food, and baked goods. Look on the label in the store before buying it.

We need fats, healthy fats, to keep our body and organs going.
The so-called good fats are the Omega 3 fatty acids because they are anti-inflammatory, help us burn the "bad fat" which comes from the Omega 6, also known as animal derived fats.

We need to choose foods that contain healthy fats, and we cook with fats as well.
Cooking with olive oil (an unsaturated fat) versus butter ( a saturated fat) we are already making a difference in our health and well-being.

For eating healthy fats, choose plant fat from nuts, seeds, and avocado.
For a healthier choice of animal fat, choose fish over meat and dairy.
For cooking, choose olive oil, sesame oil, or coconut oil over soybean oils and butter.
