title: Reducing fat intake with fat substitutes.
abstract: Many Americans should reduce their dietary consumption of fat to lower their risk of conditions such as heart disease, cancer and obesity. Physicians can coordinate a comprehensive management plan for patients who need to reduce their fat intake. The newest fat substitutes offer a potentially valuable addition to such traditional diet strategies as low-fat foods and total calorie reduction.
