Default Why am I craving nuts?

John, a very simple rule to follow - man-made fats aren't good for you.
Naturally occurring fats are fine. It doesn't have to be more
complicated than The typical man-made fats are "hydrogenated." These
are the fats to stay away from.

The idea that dietary fat and cholesterol from natural sources are bad
for you is simply not true. You don't need to concern yourself with the
kind of fat found in nuts.
