Tips for minimizing saturated fat intake

Trade the sat fat in cream cheese for the unsaturated fat in peanut butter. Swap half the bagel for a banana.

Many sandwiches get sat fat from both meat and cheese. Instead, try a turkey sandwich or veggie burger loaded with lettuce and tomato. Add mayo if you like.

Remember when people didn’t order an entire personal pizza? Eat a small slice or two (with less cheese, no meat, and thin crust) and a salad.

Meat and potatoes means sat fat and starch. You get more polys (and fewer carbs) from fish and vegetables. Add a side of salad with dressing and nuts instead of cheese.

Most sweets are high in sat fat, white flour, and sugar. You’re better off with fruit and low-fat yogurt for dessert…and maybe a small cookie on the side.
