6 Arm Fat (And Diet Fat) Myths

By Katherine Crawford M.S.

If you're serious about getting rid of that loose arm fat, you absolutely have to consume a hefty amount of dietary fat. I know this sounds paradoxical, but it's very true.

Dietary fat plays too much of an important role in the female body for it to be excluded from any effective arm toning nutrition plan. It's that important.

So without further ado, here are 6 common dietary fat falsehoods:

1. Consuming a pile of fish oil pills is very healthy. If you have more than 3 grams of fish oil per day, you run the risk of developing atherosclerosis. Not good.

2. Minute quantities of trans fatty acids are fine. Stay away from any amount of trans fat at all costs. They will seriously alter your metabolism-not good for arm fat burning. Furthermore, Harvard researchers have proven that no amount of trans fat is ok.

3. You have to stay away from ALL saturated fat. Not all saturated fat is created equal. In fact, plant saturated fat, like coconut, is extremely healthy for the female body.

4. Omega-3's can be stored anywhere. Keep them in the fridge. Why? Because at room temperature omega-3's (walnuts, flax seeds) can become rancid relatively quickly.

5. Omega-3 enhanced eggs are healthy. They are NOT healthy because they are still loaded with saturated fat. Increasing the amount of healthy omega-3 in the egg doesn't cancel out the unhealthy effect of saturated fat.

6. The less fat the better. Actually, the more fat the better. Why? Because as your intake of dietary fat increases so will your levels of loose arm-fat-burning hormones. Eat fat to burn fat!

Having a robust intake of fat is critical for losing loose arm fat. There is no way around this. So please do not cut out fat from your diet. Instead, focus on eating a wide variety of healthy fat sources. And make sure to get a substantial amount of omega-3 fats in their natural form, don't overdo the fish oil pills. Good luck! - 17273
