The Science is Settled

Saturated Fat Doesn't Cause Heart Disease

 

Say What?

 

A Cambridge University study published in the Annals of Internal Medicine rebukes 40 years of advice.

There is no link between saturated fat and heart disease.

"Healthy" polyunsaturated fats don't prevent heart disease.

The dairy fat, Margaric Acid "significantly reduces" the risk of heart disease,

Omega 3 fatty acids EPA and DHA along with Omega 6 arachidonic acid reduces risk but Omega-3 and Omega-6 supplements showed no benefit.

Poor diet driven by the over consumption of processed foods is responsible for more than physical inactivity, alcohol, and smoking.

See ya later, I'm going to go sit on my ass, eat a pound of bacon in cream gravy, down a fifth of Jack, and smoke a pack of Lucky Strikes... I'm kidding, there's no way I could eat a pound of bacon.
