Which fat is the "healthy" fat?
Saturated fat
Unsaturated fat
Trans fat
Animal fat
Answer explanation
Unsaturated fats are considered the "healthy" fats because they can help lower bad cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of heart disease. They are found in foods such as nuts, seeds, avocados, and olive oil. Saturated fats and trans fats, on the other hand, can raise bad cholesterol levels and increase the risk of heart disease. Animal fat and lard are examples of saturated fats, which should be consumed in moderation. Therefore, unsaturated fat is the correct answer as it provides health benefits when included in a balanced diet.
