A diet rich in fatty foods can cause problems with brain function, weight gain, high blood pressure and metabolic syndrome related to fatty foods are also associated with damage to the structure, tissues and activity of our brain.

Many studies have shown that fatty foods can directly damage our learning and memory, as well as significantly increase the risk of suffering from dementia over time.

It is more than evident that the consumption of fatty foods can cause weight gain and obesity. Keep in mind that many foods are cooked in large amounts of fat that can cause weight gain due to their high calorie content.

Take note of this example that will help you know where we stand: a small baked potato, about 100 g, contains about 93 calories and 0.1 g of fat, while the same amount of French fries contains 312 calories. and 15 g of fat. And in this sense there are many studies that confirm the direct relationship between high intake of fried and fast foods with higher rates of weight gain and obesity.

And as we know, and as I always try to alert you, that obesity is not a simply aesthetic issue, it has directly to do with our health since it is associated with many really serious problems, heart disease, diabetes, strokes and even certain types of cancer.

And this occurs particularly much more strongly with the consumption of trans fats, which have been designed and are formed by the food industry from vegetable oils that are chemically altered so that they remain solid at room temperature, and despite many regulations on Their use is still found in many fatty foods due to the use of partially hydrogenated oils in frying and food processing.

There is a danger of ultra-processed foods, those that most of us eat practically every day, the intention of this publication is to show you that eating anything is not the same, and that not all high-fat foods are the same. It is one thing for you to eat an avocado that is naturally rich in fat and another very different thing for you to eat, for example, fried foods or foods with added fats.
