[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 1428313, member: 41816"] Actually, the old research was based on fallacies, and those organisations you quoted are lagging waaaayyyy behind with their research and evidence. Probably because they have been giving out advice based on bad science for decades, and they are reluctant to admit they are wrong. If you want the whole sad story of selective research, scientific egos, and misinformation, then this book is a good read: [URL]https://thebigfatsurprise.com/[/URL] This is an extract from the Credit Suisse Report on the subject from the end of 2015 [I]"We found that 40% of nutritionists and 70% of general practitioners surveyed believe that eating cholesterol-rich foods has damaging cardiovascular effects. This is not true, according to the extensive research that has become available in recent years. Furthermore, they have limited knowledge of the potential benefits and risks of increased fat consumption,” said Giles Keating, Vice Chairman of Investment Strategy & Research and Deputy Global Chief Investment Officer for Private Banking & Wealth Management. “There is a concerning knowledge gap between the facts on fat and what consumers have been told."[/I] The whole field of cholesterol and diet and heart disease is undergoing a seismic upheaval, as more and more people realise just how wrong the old advice has been. It isn't just a couple of articles that say this. It is hugely supported across study after study, in a way that the old 'saturated fat is a stab in the heart' thinking was never supported by science or logic. You don't have to accept it. No one has to take on new information if they don't want to, but I am afraid that the new evidence is clear and compelling for those of us who are willing to read it in depth. This is a useful overview. [URL]http://www.zoeharcombe.com/the-knowledge/we-have-got-cholesterol-completely-wrong/[/URL] [/QUOTE]
