Saturated fats

Definition of Saturated Fats

Saturated fats are a type of fat primarily found in animal-based foods, such as meat, butter, and full-fat dairy products.

These fats are characterized by a molecular structure in which carbon atoms are saturated with hydrogen atoms, making them solid at room temperature.

Excessive consumption of saturated fats has been linked to a higher risk of cardiovascular diseases and other health issues, especially when combined with an inflammatory diet.

Therefore, it is recommended to limit their intake and opt for healthier fat sources, such as avocados, olive oil, and fatty fish.
