Modern life means less movement, more screen time, and a booming zero-fat industry cashing in on weight loss dreams. Labels scream ‘fat-free,’ and diets banish oils overnight. But is this sustainable? Health sages from Ayurveda say no—fats are foundational to thriving, not fattening.
Cells crave lipids for structure; brains demand them for function. Choose wisely: desi ghee, raw ghani oils from sarson, coconut, til; handfuls of badam, akhrot, alsi; avocado drizzles, olive splashes. Steer clear of inflammatory oils in pizzas, samose, processed bites.
Unlock vitamins’ power with fats. Fat-soluble A protects eyes, D strengthens skeletons, E battles free radicals, K ensures blood flow. Zero them out, and deficiencies brew silently. Omega-3s supercharge brain neurons, slashing depression and Alzheimer’s threats.
Hormonal harmony? Fats fuel it. Testosterone builds muscle, estrogen regulates cycles—vital for fertility across genders. Women ignoring this face PCOD-like woes. Bottom line: zero-fat extremes backfire. Integrate good fats moderately, pair with activity, and watch health transform. Your future self will thank you.
