In fact, the new nutrition fact label has done away with “percent of calories from fat” because the research bears out that the type of fat is more important to human health than the amount.
Okay, I do see that. Isn't that what the pyramid recommended as well, or did it not specify between different types of fats? I can remember when I lost weight, I pretty much only focused on calories in/calories out and exercising, of course. I honestly never paid any attention to how much sugar, carbs, protein or fat I was consuming. So I'm certainly no expert, I can only comment on what my diet was then versus now, and what I see people around me doing.
What do you think is the main difference between the pyramid and the plate?
If you're frightened of dying, and you're holding on, you'll see devils tearing your life away. But if you've made your peace, then the devils are really angels, freeing you from the Earth.
