Describe the differences between saturated fat, unsaturated fat, and trans fat

Saturated fats are derived from animal products such as meat, dairy, and eggs. But they are also found in some plant-based sources such as coconut, palm and palm kernel oils. These fats are solid at room temperature. Saturated fats directly raise total and bad cholesterol levels

Trans fats are actually unsaturated fats, but they can raise total and bad cholesterol levels while also lowering good cholesterol levels.

Monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats are two types of unsaturated fatty acids. They are derived from vegetables and plants.
