Energy/Nutritional Content of Oils and Fat Substitutes

If you want to control your weight, fish oil or omega-3 fats are a great food option for a healthy weight loss diet, although most calorie-controlled diets recommend a low intake of fats and oils due to their high calorie-content. In addition to energy content, dietary nutrition is also important, as a nutritious diet helps the body to burn calories faster and maintains a healthy metabolic rate. So as well as calorie-counting, check food labels for nutritional value. Nutritional and energy values provided on most of the above food pages include: vitamins, minerals, folate and dietary fiber, as well as protein and carbs. Understanding diet nutrition makes calorie control and weight management easier and helps you to follow a healthy eating plan. See also Nutrition in Fats/Oils

How To Lower Calorie Intake

Calorie savings advice: If you are counting calories for weight reduction purposes, the best way is to eat less added fat and use less cooking oil. Try a fat spray, for example. Of course any fitness workout will increase energy-expenditure and thus allow you to eat more fat or oil in your diet with less risk of weight gain.
