there are no such things as 'bad' fats.
You need saturated fats just as much as you need polysaturated fats to SURVIVE. By eating ANY fat in excess, it will be converted to the same end product for storage. You CAN get fat from poly or monosaturated fats.
Please do your homework. If something is bad for you, it's called a poison. And fats in general clearly aren't poisons. The 'bad' fats are fats that while still are essential to our health, are ones that should not be consumed in massive proportions like many people do. It's having a balanced diet that makes you healthy, not shunning a whole food group based on misconceptions.
If you eat too many carrots, you can get a vitamin overload and get orange fingernails as a result. Too much of a good thing is bad. |
We primates (humans) don't need any dietary source of cholesterol the body can make its own, the liver!! It is present in all animal tissues but is absent from plants. NO AVACADOS DON'T HAVE A LIVER!! Does anyone else find it annoying when you see a sticker on plant foods saying "Cholesterol Free"
So how stupid are people to knowingly include animal products in their diet when the number one cause of mortality in developed countries is heart disease that is directly attributable to consumption of animal products.... We are talking about intelligence....right?? So perhaps the study is accurate:eek:
