When you look at the studies there is no link between saturated fat and the diseases with which it is so often linked in the media. For example:<br /><br />http://conditioningresearch.blogspot.com/2010/02/fat-is-not-bad.html<br /><br />A meta-analysis of prospective epidemiologic studies showed that there is no significant evidence for concluding that dietary saturated fat is associated with an increased risk of CHD or CVD<br /><br />http://conditioningresearch.blogspot.com/2010/01/ban-butter-now-things-are-getting.htmlChrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00223657383325055342noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2467994117916260529.post-88632395423435362442010-07-02T00:50:08.169-07:002010-07-02T00:50:08.169-07:00It is important to note that dietary cholesterol m...It is important to note that dietary cholesterol may or may not contribute to heart disease depending on how the individual’s liver is able to regulate the plasma cholesterol level and the production of LDL. Certainly we know the body needs fats, but they must be the right kind. Good fats supply essential fatty acids, which are a very important link in our health chain. All cell membranes are composed of fats. Fats supply energy, act as an intestinal lubricant and carry the fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K in the body. Unfortunately many of us in the West consume much too much of the wrong fats - that is, saturated, hydrogenated, and heated fats – which are linked to obesity, cardiovascular disease, and certain types of cancer.Stephen Guy-Clarkehttp://www.beatingcholesterol.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2467994117916260529.post-765581512779863642010-07-01T23:15:20.858-07:002010-07-01T23:15:20.858-07:00This is interesting, thanks
