Why You Need to Eat More Fat
For years, experts have told you that eating fat is bad.

But, by banning fat from your diet, you're more likely to deprive yourself of considerable health benefits, and you have actually sabotaged your own efforts to lose weight.

It's time to unlearn what you think you know about fat.

Healthy fat has an amazing ability to balance hormones for increased energy and appetite control and has incredible anti-inflammatory benefits.

The solution for slimming down—and keeping the pounds off for life—is to "smart-fat" your meals, incorporating smart fats with fiber, protein, and, most importantly, flavor.

Listen in as Jonny Bowden, PhD, discusses why you need fat in your diet and why it's healthy for you.
