Eat More Fat – Healthy Fats Fuel Your Body and Mind—Don’t Fear Them

In this episode of How To Be Fit Over 40: Midlife Conversations with Hicunni, we’re debunking the myth that fat is bad for you. If you’ve been avoiding fat, it’s time to rethink that approach. Healthy fats are essential for brain function, hormone balance, and sustained energy—especially in midlife.

You’ll learn:
✅ The difference between healthy fats (avocados, nuts, olive oil) and unhealthy fats (processed oils, trans fats).
✅ How eating more fat can help with energy, focus, and feeling full longer.
✅ Easy ways to incorporate healthy fats into your diet.

SMART Goal:
This week, add one source of healthy fat to your meals daily—maybe avocado on toast, a handful of walnuts, or a drizzle of olive oil on your salad.

If you are ready to fuel your body with the right kind of fat, Grab your smoothie or cup of tea and join the conversation. Let's Go!
