CORRECT!
The 'no fat' craze reared its head in the 1990's in full force and continues to be quite popular. The unhealthy results of this 'following' should be our guide. Fact is, you need a certain amount of fat in your diet for proper digestion, shiny hair, healthy skin, energy, to pad your vital organs – and so forth.
Let's logically examine this low-fat, high calorie example:
Maple syrup is fat-free with about 250 calories per ¼ cup. McDonalds serves some very good hotcakes that have only 9 grams of fat per three hotcakes, totaling 340 calories. Caloric content is based solely on the hotcakes - no syrup, butter, margarine, jam or whipped cream.
Add ½ cup of our maple syrup to the hotcakes and we suddenly skyrocket to 840 calories; and that's with no butter added - just the maple syrup. Yes, we're still holding at 9 grams of fat, but look at the calorie content in comparison to the hotcakes with the syrup and without.
If an individual ate this type meal three times per day, they'd see little or no weight loss with minimal heath or vitamin
benefits. Nine little hotcakes were never so deadly, or were they? IHOP PANCAKE CALORIC & FAT GRAM CONTENT, PLAIN AS ORDERED, WITHOUT SYRUP If we add syrup, the caloric content skyrockets while fat grams remain steady. One fluid ounce of sugar free syrup contains 15 calories, blueberry syrup 110, boysenberry 100, butter pecan 110, Old Fashioned Maple syrup 100 and strawberry syrup 100 calories. And who doesn't like their pancake with milk? And with butter or margarine? And what about a shot of whipped cream? Yes, the real deal. Again, making wise choices as to the foods that you want to insert into your diet plan makes all the difference when it comes to weight loss results.
