Lesson Overview

20.4 – Spotting Unhealthy Fats: Fats are a major source of energy for the body, but not all fats support your wellness goals or heart health, so understanding the differences helps you plan smarter meals each day. Saturated fats and trans fats should be limited because they can raise cholesterol and make your body work harder than necessary. Trans fats are often found in highly processed snacks, baked goods, and fried foods, even when the package tries to appear clean or nutritious. The nutrition label lists these fats clearly, allowing you to avoid products that contribute to future health problems while enjoying better-quality options. Healthy fats like those from nuts, seeds, avocados, and fish help your body absorb vitamins, protect organs, and keep you fuller longer. Knowing how to recognize unhealthy fats gives you the ability to support your heart, weight, and long-term strength through daily choices. Over time, your taste preferences may shift naturally toward foods that make you feel energized instead of heavy or sluggish. Each small improvement builds confidence and momentum toward better eating habits that stay with you for life.
