Manage episode 451501843 series 3032197
Cooking with less fat is beneficial for several reasons:
Healthier Dishes: Reducing fat, especially saturated and unhealthy fats, helps create meals that are better for your heart and overall well-being.
Weight Management: Fat contains more calories per gram than carbohydrates or protein. Using less fat can help manage calorie intake and support weight management goals.
Enhanced Flavor: Contrary to what some may think, reducing fat doesn't mean sacrificing flavor. You can use herbs, spices, and other flavor-enhancing techniques to create delicious and satisfying dishes.
Diabetes Management: For people with diabetes, controlling fat intake is crucial for managing blood sugar levels and overall health.
Remember, it's not about eliminating fat entirely but rather using it mindfully and opting for healthier fats when you do.
