Monounsaturated fats have a reputation for lowering bad cholesterol while increasing good cholesterol. These fats, found in peanuts, walnuts, avocado, olive and canola oil, actually boost weight loss. That's not to minimize the bennies of polyunsaturated fats found in salmon, fish oil, corn, soy, safflower and sunflower oils. Such fats reduce total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol. They are high in calories, but these foods contain omega-3s and omega-6s, which are actually health-enhancing properties. These fats are responsible for improving conditions ranging from heart health to depression. So face the fats... and enjoy them in the small recommended doses.
