Is it dangerous to eat fatty foods like butter, bacon, and avocado? Join the CrossFit Health team for a webinar with author and investigative journalist Nina Teicholz on Wednesday, Sept. 28, at 4 p.m. PT/7 p.m. ET as we assess claims that dietary fat is a risk for disease. For years, dietary fat has been vilified as a risk factor for disease.
To reduce this so-called risk, natural fats were replaced with trans fats, which ended up being a complete metabolic disaster. But when trans fats were removed from food, they weren’t replaced with natural fats but with sugar. Since then, we’ve seen chronic disease rates rise at an alarming pace. So, what’s the deal with natural fats? Are they actually bad for us, or were those recommendations wrong? Could the unthinkable be true — that everything we thought we knew about dietary fat is wrong?
