All natural-my skincare routine

Hi guys,

I thought today I would share with you my current skin care routine.

I stopped using traditional products this year due to chemical content, and after two months, my skin is doing really well.

Fats fats fats

Fats can be the most confusing part of a healthy diet. Good fats, bad fats, trans fats..saturated, unsaturated…and cholesterol? That’s a whole other story!

So where do we begin?

Generally, fats should be taking up no more than 30-35% of total daily calories.

I think the most important thing we can do for health in regards to fats, is to cut out trans fats from our diets. Trans fats are basically fats with trans bonds, they are created during the process of hydrogenation. So hydrogenated or semi hydrogenated fats are terms you can also look out for! These fats are commonly found in processed foods (surprise surprise!!) where hydrogenation of fats can improve the texture and shelf life of a food. Surely preventing CVD is more important!!
