Five Signs You're Not Getting Enough Healthy Fats, and What to Do About It. Are you experiencing dry skin, brittle hair, or constant fatigue? These could be signs of a dietary fat deficiency. Dr. Zubareva, a practicing physician with 13 years of experience, explains five key symptoms that indicate your body needs more healthy fats. She emphasizes that not all fats are created equal and highlights three excellent sources: avocados, vegetable oils (like olive and flaxseed), and nuts (almonds, walnuts, cashews). 'Many people mistakenly avoid fats, thinking they're the enemy of weight loss,' says Dr. Zubareva. 'But healthy fats are crucial for hormone production, skin health, brain function, and even preventing those frustrating weight loss plateaus.' Dr. Zubareva's advice provides a practical, science-backed approach to improving your overall health and well-being through a balanced diet.
