sunwarrior/news/fats-the-good-the-bad-and-the-ugly/ Good fats are unsaturated fats usually found in whole foods such as avocados, nuts, organic nut butters, coconuts, flax, hemp oil, olive oil, and olives. Bad fats, also known as saturated fats, come mostly from animal products. Fats that come from animal products are especially dangerous when cooked. According to research, once fats are cooked they become rancid and turn into a toxin, which can lead to weight gain. The ugly fats to avoid all together are trans fatty acids (trans-fats). These fats are connected to many diseases. Almost anything that is fried is full of trans-fats, and they are also found in a number of processed foods. The problem with trans-fats is the body cannot break them down. The fat becomes trapped in the arteries and intestinal tract, causing disease. - See more at: sunwarrior/news/fats-the-good-the-bad-and-the-ugly/#sthash.DTsQbt2j.dpuf
