Fat may be the sexiest of all the macronutrients... am I right?

But, did you know there is FAT in a potato!? Or even a bowl of white rice! That's right, every whole plant food has carbohydrates, protein, and fat, along with fiber, vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients to support your body in healing.

In this episode we talk about the ideal quantity of fat to eat in your whole food plant based diet and the best places to source your fat.

As is the case in other Mastering Macros episodes, we get a little sciencey, so be sure to hold on tight through this one!

DISCLAIMER: We do NOT recommend counting macronutrients, or any other nutritional metric for that matter, including calories!

Some important takeaways include...

• Saturated vs monounsaturated vs polyunsaturated fats
• Omega-3 and Omega-6 fats, and what they do inside your body
• Avoiding the fat trap that we find many people get stuck in on a WFPB diet
• Fresh ground chia and flax seeds are the best source of omega-3 fats in your diet
• "Overt Fats" should fit inside the palm of your hand,  making up ~10-15% of calories, depending on your lifestyle, health status, and health goals
