Does Consuming fat makes you fat ?

EATING FAT DOES NOT MAKE YOU FAT!

As long as you eat the right kinds of fat without overdoing the quantity you can never become fat . Yes, fat (at 9 calories/gram) is more calorie dense than protein or carbohydrates (at 4 calories/gram), but eating adequate quantities of healthy fats will actually help you lose body fat .There is a mixed reaction to consuming fat these days everywhere , even in the medical industry .

Some so called “experts” still stick to the assertion that a low-fat/high-carb diet is the best way to lose weight . On the other end of the spectrum, people argue that a high-fat, high-protein, low-carb diet is the magic secret to losing weight .The answer is cosuming fats some where in the midrange.

Instead, it is the processing of foods that is the key factor in acquiring a lean healthy body. For example, it is known that heart disease, type II diabetes, and obesity are unheard of in historical Eskimo populations despite consuming an extremely high fat diet comprised of mostly whale blubber, seal fat, cold water fish, and organ meat. 

So the key here is to consume 20 - 40% of your calories as fat .Let us examine which fats are good and which are bad in the oncoming posts.
