Eat Fat to Burn Fat

According to Jesse Cannone, a personal trainer and author of the best-selling fitness ebook, Burn Fat FAST, Americans have been eating low fat (some no fat) diets and the funny thing is we have gotten progressively fatter and less healthy.

Who ever said low fat diets were healthy, and more importantly, why does eating less fat mean you’ll be less fat?

Where to start??? Well, I’ve done some research on this and have found very little science to back up the claims that eating less fat will keep you trim. I have also found many examples that totally dismiss this idea.

For example, the French eat significantly more fat than we do here in the US while there obesity AND disease and illness rates are quite a bit lower.

Another example is the Alaskan Eskimos. They consume as much as 70% of their calories from fat (whale blubber and fish) and they have one of the lowest rates of heart disease in the world – until they come to the US and eat like us!
