Question

What is the difference between saturated fat and unsaturated fat?

Answer 1

It is essential to lower saturated fat causing a high rate of bad cholesterol. Saturated fat causes an elevated blood pressure of LDL-cholesterol, the bad cholesterol. Decrease the consumption of the following foods:

Butter
Cheese
Certain fatty meats (mutton, lamb ...)
Meats
sauces
Cooked dishes
pastries
Industrial products (biscuits ...)


Good fats
Think about choosing unsaturated fats favoring lowering bad cholesterol. Consumption of unsaturated fats allows the lowering of bad cholesterol, LDL and increases good cholesterol, HDL.

Sunflower oil, olive oil, groundnut oil, rapeseed oil, avocado oil, almond oil, hazelnut oil, grape seed oil, soybean oil, corn oil and fish oil.
Oilseeds: Nuts, hazelnuts, pine nuts, almonds or sunflower seeds

Answer 2

Unsaturated fats are typically liquid at room temperature. They differ from saturated fats in that their chemical structure contains one or more double bonds.
