The benefits of fat for the body are the subject of heated discussions. On the one hand, it is a fatty, and therefore high-calorie and heavy for our digestion product. On the other hand, lard is credited with anti-aging and antioxidant properties. So which of these is true?What useful properties does lard have:
Increases immunity.
Promotes weight loss.
Lowers the level of bad cholesterol.
Prevents premature aging.
Is an anti-cancer and choleretic agent.
But all this is subject to consumption of no more than 20-30 g of the product per day. Fat is very high in calories: 100 g contains 700-900 kcal. Abuse of the product can result in obesity and pancreatitis. Instead of lowering cholesterol, fat will provoke the formation of plaques in the blood vessels.Eat lard with garlic, horseradish, pepper or mustard. Spicy seasonings contribute to the rapid absorption of fats.
