Fat has been blamed for so many things it never actually did—like making us fat. But here’s the truth: fat is essential for our bodies, and avoiding it can do more harm than good.

I’m breaking down the myths surrounding dietary fat and explaining why fat is a crucial macronutrient. And the role of fat in women’s health, especially as we navigate midlife hormone shifts. If you’ve been avoiding fat because of outdated advice, it’s time to rethink everything you thought you knew.

What You’ll Learn:
✔ Why fat doesn’t make you fat—excess energy does
✔ The different types of fat and their impact on health
✔ How fat supports hormones, brain function, and metabolism
✔ Why processed foods and sugar are bigger culprits for weight gain than fat

Let’s stop fearing fat and start using it to fuel our bodies the right way.
