Is there any science behind the claim that fat is the enemy (not carbs)?

[QUOTE="Oldvatr, post: 2277307, member: 196898"] I see Jeff Volek is one of the authors. His declared interests are shown as Research funding from foundations (Lotte & John Hecht Memorial Foundation) and industry (Metagenics, National Dairy Council/Dutch Dairy Organization, Malaysian Palm Board, Pruvit Ventures). Royalties for books on ketogenic diets. Scientific advisory board for Virta Health, UCAN, Advancing Ketogenic Therapies, Cook Keto, Axcess Global and Atkins Nutritionals. Equity in PangeaKeto. Founder, chief science officer, and equity in Virta Health. I see other connections to Virta Health in the author list Many of the authors are directly involved with dairy or meat production, and there do not seem to be many 'independent' members.. None listing grain or agriculture connections or the non SatFat lobby. No food manufacturers. No medical advisers either. Not even Nutritionists. Edit to add: No academics either All seem to be lay persons Edit again: sorry there i a sub list that was hiding. They do seem to have academic ties, but no titles or qualifications declared so level of connection is not clear. Some nutritionists listed, and many are pediatricians. There are some good references listed in this abstract. There is no discussion of what methodologies were in play when coming to the conclusions they do. I suspect this to have serious bias in its methodologies and interpretation. It may only be an abstract, but it speaks to me. [/QUOTE]
