Care to explain this insult further? Which part of my post do you disagree with?
You do realize my entire post is regarding
saturated fats, correct? I never said a person should avoid fat altogether. On the contrary, I'm well aware that both types of unsaturated fats are desirable and beneficial. I simply suggested
limiting your intake of
saturated fat.
- "As a general rule, it's a good idea to keep your intake of saturated fats as low as possible." - Harvard School of Public Health
- "Saturated fat is the main dietary cause of high blood cholesterol. Limit saturated fat intake to less than 7 percent of total daily calories." - American Heart Association
- "Saturated fat eaten in excessive amounts is the main culprit in raising total and LDL (“ bad”) cholesterol, which can increase risk of heart disease. High saturated fat intake may also contribute to increasing the risk of obesity, diabetes, and cancer." - University of Michigan Health Systems
- "Foods high in saturated fats tend to raise blood cholesterol. Keep your intake of these foods low." - United States Department of Health "Dietary Guidelines" Manual
- "...limit trans fat and saturated fat in your diet ... saturated and trans fat tend to increase the risk of heart disease." - Health Canada
- "When looking at a food label, pay very close attention to the percentage of saturated fat and avoid or limit any foods that are high." - US National Library of Medicine Encyclopedia
- "One of the important diabetes nutrition guidelines is to eat less than 7% of calories from saturated fat." - American Diabetes Association
- "Limit total intake of fats and oils...Avoid butter, stick margarine, shortening, lard, palm and coconut oils...Limit saturated and trans fats..." - University of California Medical Center
Are the researchers at Harvard Medical School, the American Heart Association, and Health Canada all morons as well?
