Saturated fats with polyunsaturated fats such as vegetable oils or carbohydrates rich in fiber is the best bet to reduce the risk of heart disease,
-Monounsaturated fats
-Polyunsaturated fatty acids

Unsaturated fats are an important part of a healthy diet. These fats help reduce the risk of heart disease and cholesterol (among other health benefits) when they replace saturated fats in the diet.
