[QUOTE="Oldvatr, post: 2397310, member: 196898"] You mention spreads. Marguerines and those butter substitutes that are supposed to be butterly straight from the fridge are actually chock full of trans fats, which are bad boys. Marges tend to use seed oils and vegetable oils that are high in Omega-6 fats, but butter and dairy are good sources of Omega-3 oils and some of the B vitamins that we need, Omega-3 oils such as found in oily fish are healthy, omega-6 and omega-7 oils are not very healthy. PS cholesterol in the diet does not become cholesterol in our blood. Our bodies manufacture cholesterol from all sorts of foods we eat, and it is not dependent on things like eggs, fats, etc. In fact, diet cholesterol would be poison to us but it saves us energy by providing the basic building blocks that our body can scavenge rather than synthesize from scratch.
