Your world is in your hands........Avoid This Common Diet Mistake You hear it all the time ... "To eat healthy, you need to stay away from fat." This couldn't be further from the truth. In fact, if you want to lose weight, keep it off, and look great year-round, you've got to eat fat. The truth is your body NEEDS fat to survive (About 66% of your brain is made up of fat!). But there is a catch -- You can't just eat any kind of fat. You've got to eat more healthy fats. See, there are "good" fats and "bad" fats. Bad fats make you sick. Good fats heal your body, protect your heart, reduce inflammation and boost your metabolism. So what foods contain good fats? Mainly, it's any food that's rich in omega-3 fatty acids and oleic acid. Here are a few you can start putting into your diet today:
Almonds -- great to snack on and good source of omega 3. Avocados -- high in heart-healthy oleic acid. Egg yolks -- despite what you've heard, eggs (including the yolk) are good for you! They're rich in omega-3's, contain the full spectrum of amino acids, and have plenty of vitamins your body needs. Grass-fed beef - Beef that's been grass-fed is very high on omega 3 fats, which are incredibly good for you. Fish -- make sure it's wild-caught, to avoid mercury contamination, among other things. Wild-caught salmon is a great choice. Walnuts -- another great choice for snacking. In addition to these, use healthy oils as salad dressings whenever possible. Good choices include extra virgin olive oil and Sacha Inchi oil. So there you go. You have permission to eat more fat. But make sure it's the good stuff. And as with everything, don't over do it. Even though good fats are healthy, they're still high in calories. Aim for 50 - 80 grams of good fat per day, depending on your calorie requirements.
Good nutrition accounts for 80% of your fat loss success. The other 20% is knowing how to workout properly and effectively for your body type.
