Eat More (Healthy) Fat
The key is to opt for monounsaturated fats, such as olive oil, all natural peanut butter, and olives. According to a study conducted by the American Diabetes Association, body fat accumulation was less in mice fed a diet rich in monounsaturated fats compared to those fed a diet high in saturated fats. “As both groups of mice were offered diets with the same energy intake, the difference in body fat accumulation between the two diet groups was ascribed to the value of fat quality.”
