Hi, my name is Lori Essery and welcome to Eat Fit Not Fat. This episode we're going to be talking about eating the foods in the right amount that will help you maintain a healthy body. Fat. Do you really know what the right food is? Most people have no idea what to eat. The right food is actually a combination of protein, carbohydrates and fat. When we speak of protein, we're talking about lean cuts of protein. Preferably chicken, white meat, fish, wild pork, venison or even a filet. You can have red meat, but trim the fat. When we talk about carbohydrates, yes, carbohydrates are actually good for you. I think a lot of people really think they're not good for you. And eating carbohydrates can be very good for you. Specifically non starchy carbohydrates. Those such as broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, chard, and all of your leafy greens. Those are a few examples. Fat is important in your diet. When we speak of fat, we're talking about healthy fats. Things like almonds, walnuts, other forms of seeds such as flaxseed, chia seed. For some people, they like chia seed as well as sunflower seeds. You can sprinkle them on your salad. Cooking with oils are very essential too. The oils that we talk about in cooking might be olive oil cooked at low temperatures or used over top of your salad. In addition to that, co coconut oil cooked at high temperatures. You can use that for your high temperature cooking. And grapeseed oil is a nice addition too. So that's this month's segment of Eat Fit Not Fat and I'm Lori Essery.
