Bacon and sausage may be classic breakfast foods, but they are super high in saturated fats and have trace amounts of trans fats, explains dietitian Paul Salter. Here’s what that means for your body: when you eat these foods, your cholesterol and blood lipids are negatively impacted, contributing to weight gain and inflammation. This is very taxing on your body – and your skin. “High-fat proteins require significant time, energy and resources to digest and absorb, which ultimately takes resources away from the rest of your body,” he says.
