the\u00a0nutritionist\u00a0advised, adding it could be best to consult a specialist in keto or low-car diets.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;They can provide personalized guidance and help ensure that their nutrition plan is meeting all their specific needs while also considering long-term health,&#8217; she explained.<\/p>\n<p>Hart continued: &#8216;I think it&#8217;s important to keep in mind that consuming excessive amounts of saturated fat has been linked to an increased risk of heart disease and other health issues, so making this generalized blanket statement for everyone may be causing more harm than good.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Instead, it&#8217;s best have a more\u00a0<span>balanced approach to nutrition, which includes a variety of healthy fats.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Again, it&#8217;s important to strike a balance between different types of fats, including unsaturated fats, which have been shown to have positive effects on heart health,&#8217;
