good fats versus bad fats?

neiltilley Posts: 325 Joined: 2003/03/09	2004/03/29, 07:46 AM Foods with fat content I invariably eat fish, fruit, veg, nuts alone, all with good fat content. Occasionally I have chocolate. Other than that I don't eat saturated fat... I consume about 80 to 100 grams of unsaturated (good)fat. My profile nutrition says 35 grams only. I can change my diet accordingly. But that would mean I could only eat 1 portion of fish or 2 if I eat no other fats per day. But I thought 'good' fats could be eaten as you like it- Can I keep eating 80g or should this be kept in check also?

Try to get a 3:1 ratio of Omega 3 to 6 if you can, good for the athlete. At the very worst, try to get 1:1. ============ Quoting from neiltilley: Foods with fat content I invariably eat fish, fruit, veg, nuts alone, all with good fat content.
