[QUOTE="zand, post: 1124435, member: 85197"] Yes of course it's fine! I don't think anyone is really saying it isn't. The thing is many of us have found that the NHS guidelines just don't work for us so this is the right place to tell others that actually saturated fats aren't bad. If you don't want them, that's fine. I'm not saying you have to have them, just that they aren't bad if you do want them. That's why Louise says exactly that in her low carb videos. I think the fact that we are speaking out against NHS guidelines means that sometimes the members here who follow those guidelines because they suit them may think that we are 'having a go' at them personally. We are not, we are just trying to give others the chance to make their own minds up just as you and I have. The 'sat fats are bad' message has been out there for 40 years, so yes, now we know that's not true we want to tell others that, that's all. It's not about changing any one person's diet. It's about the choice that you and I already have. Of course if the NHS guidelines were up to date there would be no need for us to be having this conversation. :) [/QUOTE]
