Dr. Gioffre says, "The decades of scare tactics from the sugar industry were successful at giving fat a bad name and making it the enemy to weight loss." We need fat in our diet, and the right kinds of fat can actually help us lose weight because they satiate our appetites and "boost our metabolism."
Daryl suggests having seven to 10 servings of healthy fats a day. Choose avocados, raw nuts such as almonds, macadamias, and pecans, and raw seeds such as chia, hemp, and flax. Skip the vegetable oils and go for olive, coconut, and avocado oil (one tablespoon of oil is one serving).
