Fat is a whole family of compounds called "lipids." They are often categorized as saturated, trans fat, monounsaturated, and polyunsaturated. The "total fat" is all these types added together.
Monounsaturated fats and polyunsaturated fats are known as the “good fats” because they are good for heart, your cholesterol, and your overall health.
Saturated fats and trans fats are known as the “bad fats” because they increase the risk of disease and elevate cholesterol.
Low-fat diets are not always effective because your body needs essential fats to absorb fat-soluble vitamins, which help with weight loss and maintenance.
