Low Fat Diet Exposed!

There have been a great number of people who have gone on a low fat diet or something quite similar to it. In fact, the low fat diet has been in the popular mainstream for more than a decade and a half already. And guess what? People are still battling the bulge even when they adhere strictly to the restrictions of this diet. Additionally, like all other “popular diets” being touted about, there now seems to be some health risks to the unsupervised use of low fat diet, after all. This is something that is quite contrary to the diet promoters’ earliest claim that subscribing to low fat or non fat diets has many healthful benefits and no side effects.

As the name implies, the low fat diet is supposed to work if the person subscribing to it eats as little fat and oil as possible, especially if they come in the forms of cholesterol and saturated fats. Cholesterol is very often found in meat products like all beef, cheese, egg yolks, pork, poultry products and shrimp. Saturated fats, on the other hand, can also be found in the various meat products (like beef and pork fats, fats from poultry produce and lard.) But these are also present in dairy products (butter, cheese and cream); oils from certain plants (cooking oils particularly those extracted from coconut, cottonseed and palm kernel); and most processed foods filled with sugar and preservatives (chocolates, canned and frozen meals.)

Initially, promoters of the low fat diet claim that this diet helped reduce the incidences of breast cancer, heart diseases and stroke in women. But according to newer researches, the claim over breast cancer may be a bit too much of a stretch. Also, the removal of “good” or “healthy” fats in the diet can cause other health issues. For one thing, the fats and oil in our regular diet help keep our hairs and nails strong and shiny. Furthermore, fats are converted into calories or food energy that we need in order to “function” properly.

Fats and oils in moderate amounts is where we also get our supply of essential fatty acids like omega 3, omega 6 and omega 9. These essential fatty acids produce hormone like substances that help regulate blood clotting, blood pressure, lipid levels in the blood stream, and affect the human immune system, particularly our inherent response to injury infections. Besides, without fats in our diet, we would have a more difficult time absorbing fat soluble vitamins like vitamins A, D, E and K. And finally, it should be noted that having the right amount of oils in our diets means that we also feel less hungry.

People who have been trying low fat diet for years ought to try shifting to a new diet plan, particularly one that is guaranteed to show results in as little as 11 days, without the need to sacrifice both food taste and the healthful benefits. I mean, why wait for years to lose a bit of weight? Fat Loss For Idiots is a more reasonable diet that is guaranteed to help you shed at least 9 pounds in those 11 days, without removing fats and oils from your diet.
