High-Fat Cheese: The Secret to a Healthy Life?

  • September 21, 2016

You know the drill. Watch or read the health media and you will be regularly told to avoid saturated fats because they raise your LDL cholesterol, which will ultimately clog your arteries and lead to heart disease. The problem with this recommendation is that it is only based on a theory, and worse yet that theory has never been proven. In fact, the recent studies that carefully examine saturated fat disprove this. One such study covered by the Telegraph found that "eating cheese could help to improve health by increasing our levels of "good" high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol - thought to offer protection against cardiovascular and metabolic diseases."

EAT FAT, LOSE FAT: Some dietary fats do harm, while others are vitally important for optimal health. Harmful fats that contribute to heart disease are primarily trans fats and highly refined polyunsaturated omega-6 vegetable oils (PUFAs). To effectively burn body fat, you may need as much as 50 to 85 percent of your daily calories to come from beneficial monosaturated and saturated fats. So, while it may sound ironic, eating more fat and fewer net carbs will ultimately help your body to burn more fat.
