Good Fat vs Bad Fat
Eating fat does not make you fat as long as it is the right type of fat. (Barry Sears: The Zone). That being said we want to stick with the good fats. Avocado, extra virgin olive oil, and macadamia nuts are good fats. They are called monounsaturated fats and they do not effect your insulin levels.In fact, these fats moderate your insulin levels. As Barry Sears explains further in the zone, excess carbohydrates spike your insulin levels causing insulin resistance thus promoting fat gain. Eating a balanced diet of protein, carbohydrates, and good fat will help you maintain more balanced insulin levels.
