Low Fat and Very Low-Fat Diets
For the last 20 years, health authorities have been saying that a low fat diet is best. Indeed many people have been able to gain some control over their weight by lowering their fat consumption. However there is much argument as to whether low fat is best.
More modern research is beginning to show that fat in our diet may not be the sole culprit for obesity problems in society, and that it is very important to differentiate between types of fat.
Low Fat – 20-30% of calories come from fats
Very Low Fat – 0-19% of calories come from fats.
