8 Signs You're Low in Fat (+ My Fat Formula)

About this video

Kane outlines eight signs she associates with eating too little fat: low energy, hormonal imbalances including acne, irregular or painful periods and low testosterone, brain fog, dry eyes, constipation, persistent hunger, feeling cold, and irritability. She distinguishes what she calls lab-made refined fats, which she says viewers should remove, from animal fats, butter, ghee, tallow, coconut, olives, avocado and fatty fish. Her fat formula starts with protein at 1 gram per pound of ideal body weight, then aims for fat plus carbs together to equal or exceed protein grams by day’s end. Kane says she usually recommends at least 100 grams of fat and suggests tracking food for one week to learn portions.
