Fat is one of the healthiest things you can eat.
Period.
[good fats, that is]
Eating healthy fats, yes, including saturated fats such as coconut oil and butter (from organic grass-fed sources), and pastured meats is now known by well-informed doctors, health educators, researchers, and scientists to be an essential part of a healthy diet and lifestyle.
