Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Fat also helps you absorb vitamins A, D, E, and K, the so-called fat-soluble vitamins. Fat also fills your fat cells and insulates your body to help keep you warm. The fats your body gets from your food give your body essential fatty acids called linoleic and linolenic acid.

Olive, peanut, and canola oils.

Avocados

Nuts such as almonds, hazelnuts, and pecans.

Seeds such as pumpkin and sesame seeds.

Saturated fat.

While not as harmful as trans fat, saturated fat can raise bad LDL cholesterol and too much can negatively impact heart health, so it's best consumed in moderation.
