Eating healthy fats, like olive oil and nuts, may lower the risk of heart disease. A recent study has shown that low consumption of healthy fats may contribute to heart disease. “Eating too little vegetable oils contributes to more heart-related deaths than eating saturated fats. In fact, only 3.6% of global heart deaths can be attributed to eating too much saturated fat, while just over 10% of heart deaths can be traced to eating too little plant oils…[but dietary guidelines] continue to stress limiting saturated fats rather than increasing healthy fats…but history shows that when people lower the amount of saturated fat they eat, they tend to replace it with carbohydrates, which can turn into triglycerides and get stored as fat.” Instead of replacing saturated fats with carbs, researchers suggested increasing consumption of healthy fats like fish, nuts, and vegetables for a healthier heart.
