Add Healthy Fats to Your Diet

Eating enough fat may be necessary for good digestion. Fat helps in the feeling of fullness after eating and is frequently required for proper nutrient absorption.

Omega-3 fatty acids may also lower your chance of developing inflammatory bowel conditions including ulcerative colitis, according to research. Flaxseeds, chia seeds, nuts (particularly walnuts), and fatty fish like salmon, mackerel, and sardines are foods high in beneficial omega-3 fatty acids. Monounsaturated fats are beneficial fats that can lower blood levels of harmful cholesterol, so lowering your risk of heart disease and stroke. Your cells receive nutrition from them as well as vitamin E, a vital antioxidant. Plant-based liquid oils like these are healthy to cook with: olive oil; canola oil; peanut oil or sesame oil.
