Hi Nishthha

I agree with nancy. Low fat diet means which include plenty of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, green leafy vegetables. you will get good amount of fibers, vitamins, minerals & protein but fat will be less. Fat is also important to maintain our health. So choose healthier fat such as omega3 fat foods like fish, almonds, walnuts, flax seeds, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, etc. One who health then use 3-4 tsp or 500ml per month per person. Who is overweight or board-line over weight should take only 3 tsp per day or 400-450ml per day.
