Understanding Saturated Fat (and Why You Should Limit Your Intake)

1. The difference between “saturated” and “unsaturated” fat comes via the chemical structure of the fat.
2. The more saturated the fat, the more it raises bad cholesterol (also called LDL, the plaque-building kind of cholesterol).  Obviously, not a good thing.
3. Saturated fat is found mostly in animal-based foods, like meat or dairy products.
4. You can often tell a saturated fat because it is solid at room temperature (animal fat, shortening, stick margarine).

Keys to Reducing Saturated Fat:

1. Limit the amount of red meat you consume (try twice a month, if you’re a meat eater.)
