[QUOTE="Deleted member 371625, post: 1670725"] Good wine, bacon, cheese, sex, music, fell walking, steak, friendship, brandy, lamb chops...............I could go on (and on)..... None of these are 'necessary for life' but they give pleasure to some people and without compelling evidence that they are harmful why should people give them up? There is no compelling evidence (or any significant evidence at all) that moderate intake of carbohydrates is in any way harmful to a healthy individual. There is evidence to suggest that a high saturated fat diet increases the [B]chances[/B] of high levels of LDL cholesterol, which in turn increases the[B] chances[/B] of atherosclerosis and CVD. Therefore, high fat diet makes CVG, heart attack, and stroke more likely, not certain, but more likely. Recent evidence suggests that this connection is not as straightforward as was once thought, but the connection still exists. It is probably the case that for many people who cannot process carbs due to permanent damage to the pancreas, leading to uncontrolled BG/insulin, the risks of high fat are lower than the risks of uncontrolled BG. But it is not without risk, and will never be desirable for a healthy person. [/QUOTE]
