Re: fat myths finally put to rest?



If I am wrong, feel free to reference any study that is good science
and wasn't blatantly funded by industry that supports your contention
> that low carb has a similar failure rate as low fat.

Actually, I am afraid that you can apply above to anything that is referenced.


Quote from your post: "consumption of these healthy fats are necessary
for good health". So are they necessary or not?


Absolutely. Several nutrients, including fatty acids, from animal
sources are essential in the scientific sense of the word. Thus they
are necessary for good health and their absence from ones diet will
lead to a nutrient deficiency.

I guess you are creating smoke barrier now.

My (and I believe that most readers in this group) understanding of your claim was that "healthy fat" is in your interpretaion "saturated fat".

Do you claim that consumption of saturated fat (say, 12:0, 14:0 and 16:0 acids) is necessary for our health ?

(Note that I am not speaking anything about it being harmful either).
