what does eating fats actually do
>>
>>77183939
Eating fats does the world a favor by reducing the obese and overweight population; just be careful you're not caught, or you'll be put away for cannibalism.

1. Energy Source

Fat is the most energy-dense macronutrient, providing about 9 calories per gram (more than carbs or protein). It serves as a long-term energy reserve your body can tap into when needed.

2. Supports Cell Structure

Fats are a key component of cell membranes. Without them, your cells wouldn’t maintain their structure or function properly.

3. Helps Absorb Vitamins

Certain vitamins—A, D, E, and K—are fat-soluble, meaning your body needs fat to absorb and use them effectively.

4. Hormone Production

Dietary fat contributes to the production of hormones, including those involved in metabolism, reproduction, and mood regulation.

5. Protects Organs & Insulates the Body

Fat cushions vital organs (like your kidneys and heart) and helps regulate body temperature by providing insulation.

6. Brain Function

Your brain is largely made of fat, and fatty acids (especially omega-3s) are important for memory, cognition, and overall brain health.

7. Satiety & Flavor

Fat slows digestion, helping you feel full longer. It also enhances the taste and texture of food, making meals more satisfying.

Some fats are horrible for you but some are really good, they all have some downsides simply because it's fat but it's a necessary evil, the goods outweight(heh) the bad

anecdotal:

3 months into my cut I stopped getting erections and was turbo depressed. i was eating the leanest protein and basically no fat. then i started eating fats again (evoo, fatty fish, fatty beef etc) and returned to normal.

Fat is important anons,

Keeping it low is fine and usually important, but you do need it. It literally holds your cells together.
