Fat is good for you. The problem comes from people who eat fat AND too many carbs. The fat has a shit ton of calories. The carbs spike insulin levels, which then crash. The spike desensitizes their cells to insulin and the crash triggers hunger and the process repeats. Hello Type 2 diabetes. If they limited calories from carbs to about 5-10% of their total daily intake, they could eat as much fat as they wanted and they wouldn't gain weight. Mostly because they'd feel full for far longer.
