Good Fats, Bad Fats? The Good, the Bad, the Ugly

So are we still talking about "good" fats and "bad" fats? What's up with cholesterol? What are trans fatty acids? Which fats should we be looking at on the food label? What is DHA and EPA? Should we be taking fish oil supplements?? Dr. Alison Rigby, Research Fellow at Stanford and Nutritionist will explain some of the mystique of fats and reveal how some fats are not all that bad. It's time to bring out the walnut and flaxseed oil and learn the benefit of these. Alison will also be providing some delicious Mediterranean recipes using avocado, olives and seafood.
