Not that long ago, dietary fats were vilified and blamed for weight gain, high cholesterol, and many other problems. Today, they're having a bit of a revival. ► Learn More With Our Foundations of Fitness Nutrition Course: https://bbcom.me/36Gfphz ► The Complete Guide to Losing Weight: https://bbcom.me/2T8e542 ► Subscribe: http://bit.ly/2DK5lGD Olive oil and even butter are back on the menu, and some fat-replacement "foods" that were once kitchen staples, like margarine and shortening, aren't nearly as popular as they used to be. If this has all left you a bit confused, you're in good company. This lesson will show you how to take a targeted, quality-focused approach to dietary fats. | Essential Ideas From The Video | • Even the leanest person has plenty of stored body fat. The average man has about 100,000 calories of stored fat, as compared to the 1,500-2,000 calories known as glycogen, or carbohydrates. This stored fat is crucial! It insulates and protects your vital organs, and it's also your body's primary source of energy at rest and during low-intensity exercise. • Like protein, fats are also part of who you are. Body fat helps form cell membranes and is a major part of many organs, including around 60 percent of your brain. • Fatty acids also act as cellular messengers, helping proteins do their jobs, and helping you store and process essential nutrients and vitamins. They're also essential for regulating levels of hormones such as testosterone—low-fat diets have been connected with decreased testosterone levels. • Saturated fats come primarily from animal sources like meat and dairy products, and some tropical nuts like coconuts. Another way to remember this is that they are all fats that are solid at room temperature. • Polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats more often get labeled "healthy" fats. We get these from nuts and seeds, certain vegetables like avocados or olives, and fish. • Trans fats are naturally occurring in small amounts, but the artificial variety has been connected to a number of series health issues and is best avoided. • The difference between all of these fats isn't dramatic, it's just a carbon molecule here or there. Fats are more similar than they are different, and when it comes to adding fats to your diet, the differences only become problematic when you dramatically over-rely on one type or another. • The same goes for omega-6 and omega-3 fats. Omega-6 fats, which are located in abundance in many meats, vegetables, grains, and oils, have important health properties. But when we eat them to the almost total exclusion of omega-3s, as many people do, then they end up negating the good effects of omega-3s. In that case, the omega-6s can end up potentially causing inflammation and other problems. • A good goal, for health and performance, is to get away from a 10:1 omega-6 to omega-3 ratio and strive for more like 4:1. It's also good to tip the scales more toward unsaturated fats and polyunsaturated fats, eating them about twice as much as you eat saturated fats. • A simple approach that allows you to get maximum benefits from healthy fats is to get most of your fat from non-meat sources like nuts, seeds, and vegetables, and have some at most meals. Eat fish 2-3 times a week if your diet allows it, and add a thumb-sized portion of oil, nuts, or avocado to meals regularly. • Rather than obsessing over types of fat, simply know your best fat sources, and prioritize them when you assemble your meals every day. Rather than looking for a trick—like "low-fat ice cream"—that seems to allow you to eat junk food more often, start by getting enough quality fat in the right portions in your diet regularly. 00:00 - Intro 00:47 - Fats: What Do They Do? 04:43 - Fats: Where You Get Them Matters 08:55 - Quality First, Quantity Second ========================================­===== | Follow Us | ► YouTube: http://bit.ly/1RSJFa4 ► Facebook: http://on.fb.me/1lomhpr ► Instagram: http://bit.ly/1LzBxab ► Twitter: http://bit.ly/1RSJQlL ► Google+: http://bit.ly/1NRe8qu ► Pinterest: http://bit.ly/1OOZgY4 ► Spotify: http://spoti.fi/1NRebm0 We are Bodybuilding.com.

We're going to discuss the way most of us currently measure food as a fuel source: the calorie. ► Learn More With Our Foundations of Fitness Nutrition Course: https://bbcom.me/3wRaaqN ► The Complete Guide to Losing Weight: https://bbcom.me/3qjEEQ1 ► Subscribe: http://bit.ly/2DK5lGD A calorie-focused approach to nutrition has many limitations, but it still has important uses in certain situations. So, let's try to provide a little clarity, and try to help you make the most of the information that's on a food label. | Essential Ideas From The Video | • The calorie is not a universally accepted system of measurement. But every point made about it in this video can also be applied to other measurements like joules, kilojoules, or kilocalories. • The biggest advantages to calories are that they give you an objective way to measure very different meals, and to make more informed decisions about portion sizes. This can be helpful because portion size has increased immensely in restaurants and homes in recent decades. • Calories can also help you see how small indulgences, like a daily soda pop can add up over time. One soda a day is enough extra calories to add 15 pounds of weight in a year! • Beer, wine, cocktails, and coffee drinks may not have food labels, but they're definitely not calorically "free." • A major downside to calorie counting is that it's never totally accurate, even if you take the number on the label as gospel. •Packaged foods have been shown in research to have a lot of variability in caloric accuracy. It's normal for them to underreport both carbs and total calories by 25, or even up to 95, percent. • Another flaw in calories: Digestion is highly complicated and personal, and the number you eat is never exactly the number your body absorbs. Hard-to-digest foods like meat and nuts can increase inaccuracy by another 25 percent, or more. • A final flaw: As soon as people start counting calories, they often start cutting them—often too low, and without taking enough care where they're cutting from. Getting too few calories, for too long, is a big problem that can make it harder to maintain a healthy body composition, leave you feeling awful, and put you no closer to your goals. • So, what's a better way to get the benefits of calories? First, by sticking primarily to whole foods, you'll avoid the calorie inaccuracies that are common in processed foods. Second: Don't just exercise to burn calories. Why? You burn far less than you think, even in intense training, and judging your training by how many calories you burned is just a good way to end up hating exercise. • Think portions, not just numbers. In future videos, we'll show some hands-on ways to measure portions. You can also control portions with how you eat; research says to eat slowly, off of a plate whenever possible, and have a plan rather than making decisions on the fly. •If you've been counting calories forever, you don't need to stop. Just consider it one measurement among many. Food quality matters just as much, and matters more in terms of how a food will affect your blood sugar and hunger levels, or how it will help (or not help) fuel you through hard training and recovery. | Our Experts | Douglas Kalman and Susan Hewlings both have Ph.D.s and are registered dieticians, experienced researchers, and accomplished athletes.

What you do in the gym is only half the story. How you eat matters just as much to where you'll end up, both athletically and in terms of your health! ► Learn More With Our Foundations of Fitness Nutrition Course: https://bbcom.me/3zo1J8d ► The Complete Guide to Losing Weight: https://bbcom.me/3xkMtr0 ► Subscribe: http://bit.ly/2DK5lGD Foundations of Fitness Nutrition is designed to be a comprehensive and applicable guide to help everyone make more educated choices about the food they eat—especially people with fitness or physique goals. It's taught by two registered dietitians with Ph.D.s who have worked with all kinds of athletes, and are athletes themselves. Where does your journey to greater health and optimal performance begin? By taking a hard look at your mindset, and at the timeless question, "What is a healthy diet?" • The goal of this series isn't to push a particular diet, but to help establish behaviors that will help you thrive on any diet or eating approach. You should also be able to compare different eating systems more effectively for your goals, and be able to be more critical of common nutritional myths. • Nutrition and perfection don't go together, even though our brains like clean categories of "yes" and "no." However, constantly thinking in terms of "this is good for me" and "this is bad for me" misses the bigger picture: the overall balance of the food you eat, the nutrients you're getting, and how food translates to energy levels or recovery from training. • A great way for athletes and fit people to define nutrition is: Giving your body what it needs to survive, and to support your activity goals. In other words, looking at food as fuel first and foremost. • Nutrients come in two classes. The first is macronutrients: protein, carbohydrates, fats, and alcohol. These are all "fuel" more literally, and have a specific value that can be measured in calories. The second category is micronutrients, and includes things like vitamins, minerals, phytochemicals, and all the other non-caloric substances that your body uses to facilitate countless processes. You don't use these as fuel, but if you're not getting enough of them, you'll definitely feel the effects. • Healthy diets of all types share a few unifying characteristics. They have adequate variety of foods and nutrient sources, a balance of macro and micronutrients, and maximum nutrient density with minimum empty calories. • A simple seven-word foundation to build on when choosing foods is "Not too processed, not too many ingredients." It's somewhat vague, but by prioritizing whole foods whenever possible, you can cut down on all the traditional nutritional bad guys, and maximize the amount of quality fuel and nutrients you get in each meal. | Our Experts | Douglas Kalman and Susan Hewlings both have Ph.D.s and are registered dieticians, experienced researchers, and accomplished athletes.
