    About this ebook

    The right types of fat in small amounts are essential for our health. Your body uses it to absorb vitamins, move nutrients around and build cells. However, because it tastes good, it’s easy to eat too much. It’s really easy for your body to store fat too, and some fats are just not good for us.

    There are different types of fats and oils, each one affecting your body in different ways, and what type you eat is as important as how much you eat. There are two kinds of fat in the foods we eat – saturated and unsaturated fat.

    Saturated fats don’t do much to keep your body healthy and will clog up your arteries, increasing the risk of heart disease. Fats with a lot of saturated fat in them are hard at room temperature and mostly come from animal products including lard, cheese and meat fat. Processed foods made from these fats include biscuits, cakes and pastry. Palm and coconut oil are also highly saturated and are often used in margarine, biscuits and bakery products.
