Key:<\/strong>
\nSFA = Saturated fatty acids
\nMUFA = Monunsaturated fatty acids
\nPUFA = Polyunsaturated fatty acids<\/p>\n

Based on decades of research by Ray Peat, PhD, FPS encourages consuming foods with the highest ratio of SFA to PUFA. The SFA:PUFA (S\/P) ratio of common dietary fats is shown in the third chart on this page. On that chart, the fats appearing highest on the list are the most health protective.<\/p>\n

The information in the charts below was compiled with the help of a government resource that is available in full by searching for the source provided on the documents. Eggs and dairy foods are not included in this chart because I could not locate the information from the same source on the internet.<\/p>\n
