Healthy fats for weight gain
Fats are healthy
Fat is one of the major nutrients in the body, accompanied by protein and carbohydrate. Fat supports in performing systemic and metabolic functions. The other name of fat is triglyceride.
Fat is solid at room temperature. People confuse between oil, which remains liquid at room temperature. Some fats cannot synthesize in the body; widely known as essential fatty acids. These essential fatty acids are of two kinds: alpha linolenic acid and linoleic acid.
Fatty tissue or adipose tissue is fat storage mechanism of the body. In the case of emergency, these fat cells dissipate to provide energy in the form of fatty acid and glycerol. Recent studies have found consuming unsaturated fats reduce risk of cardiovascular diseases.
Dieting!!
This term is not only used by obese or overweight person; but, it is a routine of consumption of healthy food to increase, decrease or maintain body ideal weight. It is a practice to maintain a stable weight and healthy body. A balanced diet contains all nutrients like carbohydrate, vitamin, protein, and mineral. Each nutrient plays a crucial part in maintaining body function.
Let’s talk about fat.
Fat is storage house of energy to provide nourishment when carbohydrate is not accessible. Fat provide energy, absorbs various nutrients and maintain body temperature. Deficiency of fats increases risk of acquiring heart diseases, chronic inflammation, deficiency of vitamins and related diseases, mental illness, brittle hair and nails, cancer and weakness. There always has been a misconception regarding fats. The fat falls in two categories “good fat” and “bad fat”.
As the name suggests we must include the good fats in our diet. The good fats are the unsaturated fats which includes polyunsaturated fats (PUFAs) and monounsaturated fats (MUFAs). When consumed as per requirement, they lower cholesterol levels and reduce risk of heart diseases.
Omega-3 fatty acid: this PUFA commonly found in walnuts, edible seeds like chia and flax, oils like olive oil, fish oil. Reports and research have found that these foods reduce risk of cardiovascular disorders. Food combined with vitamin E helps synergize the effect of good fats.
The bad fat in the diet can be avoided. It increases cholesterol level. It is largely found in animal products like whole eggs, dairy products, red meat, and vegetable oil like palm oil and coconut oil.
Trans fat: trans fatty acids are found in packed food or bakeries, fast foods leading to risk heart disease and mortality. Fortunately, these healthy fats are present in Accumass. Each 100 g of Accumass is filled with goodness of PUFAs and MUFAs. Table of content are as follow:
