Since the fat free fad diets of the 1990’s everyone has been giving fat a bad rap. The desirable verses the undesirable fat seems to be a very confusing concept for many of us to understand.

Fat is fat right, don’t we need to avoid it all? The truth is we all need fat as part of a healthy diet, the trick is to chose the right fat. Eating  good quality fat in the form of olive oil, raw nuts, seeds and avocados is not necessarily going to make you fat, and on the other hand, eating too much ‘fat free’ food could easily make you fat.
