This type of diet gained popularity when fat was
         demonized.


         A  low-fat  diet  is  an  outdated  and  non-

         conductive  recommendation  for  those  with
         high cholesterol levels and gallbladder stones. It

         is also popular among those aiming for weight
         loss.


         To have healthy cholesterol levels, reducing the

         intake of unhealthy fats like sunflower oil, canola
         oil,  and  margarine  is  advisable.  However,  poor
         food  choices  such  as  highly  processed  foods,

         sugars,  and  fructose  are  the  main  culprits
         behind unhealthy cholesterol levels.



         Also  the  malfunction  of  the  gallbladder  can
         create  unhealthy  cholesterol  levels.  In  my
         Metabolic Balance Class, I teach natural ways to

         address this common health issue.


         Individuals  with  very  good  insulin  sensitivity
         who can efficiently use glucose as a fuel source

         may benefit from low-fat diets. I have observed
         this  in  my  practice  among  individuals  with

         Eastern European and Russian origins.
