Not always the fat is bad for health, the body needs a certain amount of fat to cover his duties. Approximately 30-35% of the diet should be fat. But take care because not all fats are equal.
For example, is the extra virgin olive oil is not the same as butter, and butter is not the same thing as margarine.
In any case, for each gram of fat that are obtained ingest 9 Kcal.
