Yes. To most people these days, fat is a bad thing. Fat is needed by the body, not only as a source of energy and insulation to the body's organs, but it also allows for the absorption of vitamins A, D, E, and K, which are all fat soluble vitamins. Lacking fat could lead to deficiencies in these nutrients, leading to illness or disease.
