Source: Vitamins and minerals that fight disease and warn off the potential for getting sick. The immune system is boosted up every time these fats are eaten giving you more energy. Studies have shown that the hair, teeth and nails all see positive results from foods with high healthy fat content as well. This is because of how the body absorbs and processes it. As long as you know which fats are healthy you will be better equipped in knowing which foods to buy.

Which fats and how much fat is being ingested is the real issue. Understanding how fat benefits the body and knowing which fatty foods are healthy is what's rarely discussed.
