By Nicola Graimes

It’s time to ditch the quick-fix diets and make fats work for you! Now, more than ever, we’re appreciating and understanding the vital role that fats play in our nutrition – but we have to be eating the right types in the right amounts for good health in the long term.

In this refreshing take on the most misunderstood macro of all, Nicola Graimes celebrates the right fats, highlighting their numerous health attributes – including being an important source of energy, vital for cell growth, hormone regulation, cognitive development and supporting good heart, gut and skin health – as well as the diversity and the sheer flavour they add to our meals.

Whether you’re a fan of a low-fat diet or a high-fat regime, this book dispels many of the myths surrounding fats, including which ones are healthy and the ones to avoid. Nicola also showcases the best ways to prepare and cook with fats for maximum nutrition and flavour.

With over 50 delicious and vibrant recipes covering Breakfasts, Small Plates, Big Plates, Sides and Treats as well as easy-to-understand nutritional advice, the book highlights that balance is key, with other food groups, such as good-quality plant proteins and right carbs, being equally important.

The Right Fat is a practical and inspirational approach to maintaining a healthy way of eating for long-term and lasting lifestyle improvement – and increased enjoyment!
