Also on an education mission is Real Simple magazine, which dispels 10 nutrition myths. Contrary to the belief that “eating fat makes you fat,” they explain that dietary fat helps with the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins and phytonutrients, and suggest choosing monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, like those found in canola oil.
