The positive side of 'fat' in diet

Fat leaves the stomach slowly so it delays the onset of hunger pangs which contributes to the feeling of satisfaction. You might have observed that whenever you have food which has some fat content in it you dont feel hungry soon.

Some of the essential vitamins like A,D,E and K are only soluble in fat, so if you completely deprive yourself of fat you will be depriving yourself of these vitamins also.

Fat is also responsible for aroma and flavour of food without which food becomes tasteless and its difficult to consume flavour less food on a daily basis.

So what do you think now? Isn't it necessary to include some fat in your diet? But do monitor the 'quantity' of fat in food  or else you might put on weight and trouble your heart.
Do share your views on this...
