Is There Such a Thing as Eating Too Much Fat?

Is there such a thing as eating too much fat?I know the dietary fat conversation has gotten a little confusing.I thought fat was good? I thought we needed all the animal fats for the nutrient density? I thought we needed it for our hormones? I thought I should put enough butter on my bread I can see my teethmarks when I bite in? Yes! We absolutely do need fat. Good animal fat is soooo nutrient dense. And BECAUSE of how dense it is; it can create sluggishness in an already slowed down system. And, this is part of why we need to bring a little more nuance into the conversation.I do not want to add to the noise of extremes and pendulating dietary trends. I do not want to encourage anyone to do anything that doesn’t feel good in their body or shy away from anything that IS feeling good in their body.BUT, if you feel like you’re doing all the things and still don’t feel quite right.. there could be some wisdom in this more nuanced discussion of dietary fat intake.If you want more of this practical, non dogmatic, grounding back into the basics of nutrition for women check out:Deep Nourishment | A Course in Foundational Care for the Female Body.We will get into more of these nuances.
