Obviously we know better know, so you have to keep that in mind when reading these articles. Make sure they specify trans fats when talking about how certain fats affect the body.

And for you to take 2 quotes from 2 studies, and come to the conclusion that "eating more saturated fats lead to insulin resistance/diabetes", I am not even going to respond to you any more. Sorry.
First of all, the 2 separate sentences after the 2 quotes were supposed to be a explaination of the quote taken from the 2 separate articles. Keep in mind these 2 studies were the ones YOU posted to convince us the health benefits of saturated fats etc. Both articles are recent and suggests that eating saturated fats is bad for your health. I'm not sure where you get the idea that trans fat and saturated fats were considered the same by researchers. But that is not a problem because the first article is from 2007 and the second article is from 2005. I see nothing wrong with what I said thus far.
