Low fat fat
Low fat diets may not help shift fat. Experiments on mice have shown that old fat will hang around in the body if the liver doesn't get any new fat to process."Extremes of diet are sometimes unwise, because a balanced diet may be critical for providing certain dietary signals that allow you to respond appropriately to stresses, and one of those stresses is eating too much," said Dr. Clay Semenkovich, a professor of medicine, cell biology and physiology at the University of Washington and co-author of the study.
Thus a small amount of fat is necessary for even a low fat diet to work. And we all know how important it is to get your dose of Omega 3 fatty acid.
