[QUOTE="Jinzang, post: 136451, member: 12925"] I know this is a contentious issue, but the Cochrane Review, the most trusted source on independent medical reviews, has looked at the subject and concluded saturated fat does play a role in heart disease. You can read their [URL='https://www.cochranelibrary.com/cdsr/doi/10.1002/14651858.CD011737/full']review of the studies on saturated fat and heart disease [/URL]online. Here is their conclusion: "The findings of this updated review are suggestive of a small but potentially important reduction in cardiovascular risk on reduction of saturated fat intake. Replacing the energy from saturated fat with polyunsaturated fat appears to be a useful strategy, and replacement with carbohydrate appears less useful, but effects of replacement with monounsaturated fat were unclear due to inclusion of only one small trial. This effect did not appear to alter by study duration, sex or baseline level of cardiovascular risk. Lifestyle advice to all those at risk of cardiovascular disease and to lower risk population groups should continue to include permanent reduction of dietary saturated fat and partial replacement by unsaturated fats. The ideal type of unsaturated fat is unclear." [/QUOTE]
