Ohhh......Another victim of The China study ( As a Ex victim myself, i know consider this book the most incomprehensible nutritional book ever written ) . If you want to be healthy, please look back what our ancestor used to eat. There were Lard, butter, grass fed meat, vegetable, whole grain, some fruit. Comparing that to the modern diet which consists of Process vegetable oil, Refined carbohydrate(flour, refined sugar, coke), fast food rich in tran fats, Unnatural sweetener and etc. You know we are in deep crap because the food industry will never change as long as there is a demand.

The scientific evidence, honestly evaluated, does not support the assertion that "artery-clogging" saturated fats cause heart disease. (44) Actually, evaluation of the fat in artery clogs reveals that only about 26% is saturated. The rest is unsaturated, of which more than half is polyunsaturated. (45)

Myths and Truths About Nutrition Quote:
Myth: Heart disease in America is caused by consumption of cholesterol and saturated fat from animal products.
