Too much fat in the diet, especially saturated fats, can raise cholesterol levels, increasing the risk of heart disease. Private and public health organizations recommend reducing all fat and replacing saturated fat with some unsaturated fats.
A small amount of fat is an important part of a healthy and balanced diet. Fat is a source of essential fatty acids that the body cannot produce on its own. Fat helps the body absorb vitamins A, D, and E. These vitamins are fat soluble. Any fat that is not used or converted into energy by body cells turns into body fat. Likewise, unused carbohydrates and proteins turn into body fat.
All types of fat are high in energy. The main types of fats found in various foods are saturated fats and unsaturated fats. Most solid and liquid fats contain both saturated and unsaturated fats in varying proportions.
As a requirement of healthy eating, one should avoid foods and beverages high in saturated and trans fats, and replace some with unsaturated fats. Saturated fats are found in many foods, both sweet and salty. Most are also found in animal products such as meat and dairy.
