Pick 10 foods to figure the percentage of fat. To figure the percentage of fat:1. Take the grams of fat and multiply by 9. (There are 9 caleries per gram of fat)2. Take the amount figured in number 1 and multiply it by 100.3. Divide the amount figured in number 2 and divide by the total amount of calories for that food. The number you get is the percentage of fat calories.For example American Cheese:1. 9x9=812. 81x100=81003. 8100%106= 76% fat so out of 106 calories 76% of those come from fat. If a food is larger than 30% fat you might consider an alternate food choice.Make a chart in your notebook like this: Food Percetage of calories from fat1.2.3.4.5.6.7.8.9.10.

A small amount of fatty food with meals makes the meal remain in the stomach for a longer time, giving one a pleasant feeling of satiety and satisfaction, and supplies necessary heat, energy and storage material.Too many foods with fat cause weight gain. Fats have a little more than double the calories than carbohydrates and proteins have. The 2,000 calorie MyPyramid plan that we use recommends 6 teaspoons of oil per day. 10% of your total calories should come from fat, or about 22 grams of fat/dayCHOLESTEROL is a fat-like substance made by the body which has some useful functions:Found in every body cell Part of skin tissue Transports essential fatty acids Needed to produce hormones Your body makes the cholesterol it needs, eliminating the need to include it in your diet. It is present in all animal tissues, milk products and egg yolks, chicken legs, fins or wings___anything that can walk, swim or fly.Cholesterol is not found in foods of plant origin such as fruits, vegetables, grains, dry beans and peas. Cholesterol is found in the membrane between the cells not in the cells or fleshy part of the meat.Sometimes you hear about “good” and “bad” cholesterol. LDL or low-density lipoprotein takes cholesterol from the liver to wherever it is needed. Excess amounts of LDL can build up on artery walls and increase risk for heart disease. LDL is the “bad” cholesterol. HDL or high-density lipoprotein, the “good” cholesterol, picks up excess cholesterol and takes it back to the liver for excretion. (Food for Life)
FATTY ACIDS are the basic chemical units or organic acids which make up fat. All fat is one of three types of fatty acid:SATURATED - found in animal sources such as milk, cream, cheese, butter, meat, poultry. Also in coconut and palm oil. Because it can be made from saturated fatty acids, cholesterol levels in the blood are related to the amount of saturated fat eaten. Appear to raise LDL or bad cholesterol. POLYUNSATURATED - are better than saturated fats. They are found in vegetable oils and fish. Seem to help lower cholesterol levels. MONOUNSATURATED - the best type of fat. It is found in olives, avocados, nuts, and olive, canola and peanut oils. Most margarines and hydrogenated vegetable oils are highly monounsaturated. These seem to lower LDL and raise HDL levels.
All three types of fats have the same number of calories. A diet of foods high in cholesterol and saturated fat will increase the "blood cholesterol level" of many people. As a result plaque can build up in the arteries (atherosclerosis) which increases the risk of heart attack and stroke. Your body can’t make all the fatty acids it needs. Those that must be obtained through foods are called essential fatty acids. One important essential fatty acid is omega-3, which may reduce the risk of heart disease. Omega-3 fatty acids are prevalent in fish, which is why it is recommended that one eat fish; especially fatty fish like trout, albacore tuna and salmon, at least twice a week.There is much recent talk about trans fats; in fact, food producers must now add trans fat information to food labels. Read labels and ingredient lists carefully because if the amount of trans fat is small enough per serving, it may be listed as 0 trans fat, while it still contains a trace. A trans fat is when a liquid vegetable oil is chemically changed to a solid through a process called hydrogenation. Trans fats are used in products like margarine, baked goods, snack foods, and fast foods to increase shelf life and add extra flavor. Beware! These are probably the worst fats as they can increase LDL and seem to lower HDL. Avoid foods rich with trans fats.
