List Of Low Fat Foods is part of our Healthy Eating collection tips, articles and recipes for low-fat, low-sodium, high-flavor, well-balanced diets.

List Of Low Fat Foods

Knowing which foods are low-fat helps you control your diet by managing your nutrition.  Many of us have medical conditions requiring we reduce the fats and cholesterol in our diets.  It's important that we have a way of knowing the fat content of our recipes and our whole menu on order to lower it.  This is where our list of low fat foods can come in handy.  Also, since fat contains twice the calories per gram of proteins and carbohydrates, lowering the fats in your diet can also help you lose weight.  You may notice the last 9 items on our list are pretty high in fat.  This does not mean you can't eat them, in fact, the fats in the seafood are actually very good for you.  To keep your total dietary fat at 20-30%, balance these moderate fat foods with low fat foods from the top of the list.  All amounts are approximate.
