No saturated-fat diet?

[Razarsharp]

If I were to take flaxseed oil as my only fat substitute in my diet, could I expect any problems...does the body need saturated fat to maintain itself? Diet won't last any longer than a couple months anyway, just curious.

a lot of food contain saturated fat (meat and animal products)


and you need to eat saturated, mono and poly unsaturated fatty acids

You don't "need" saturated fat. You "need" your essential fatty acids, which can be provided sufficiently through mono's and poly's. however, it would be VERY difficult to rid yourself of ALL saturated fat. Good luck.
