As I said before, McDonald's french fries might contain trans fat. Trans fat is an unnatural fat that has no positive effects. It raises your LDL cholestrol levels and lowers your HDL cholestrol levels. Unlike other types of fat, we don't need this at all. You can get diabetes, cancer, obesity, heart disease, and stroke from trans fat.
Saturated fat isn't that good, either. While you need a little of it ,it raises your total cholestrol levels and LDL cholestrol levels. It also clogs your arteries with plaque, so if you eat too much you increase your risk of heart attack and stroke.
