Show Notes

In this, the first episode of my 4 part series about dietary fats, I will describe to you what fat is, the different types of dietary fats, a brief overview of fat digestion and why our bodies need fat. When you've listened to this episode you'll know the difference between saturated fat, monounsaturated fat and polyunsaturated fat and why they are described the way they are.

I think it is helpful to understand what fat is from a scientific point of view as the is so much in the media about fat – eat it, don’t eat it, eat this fat not that fat etc etc. It is confusing. So, starting from a solid knowledge base is always helpful.

Tune in and join me to sort out fat from fiction.
