Please, let's get rid of the saturated fat bogeyman:
This is the part conventional “wisdom” doesn’t get: saturated fat in the diet doesn’t directly translate to saturated fats in the blood. It’s all how it’s metabolized. Saturated fat levels in the blood are influenced by the prevalence of carbs in the diet and the subsequent carb-generated lipogenesis process. -- http://www.marksdailyapple.com/saturated-fat/
Thanks for this information, I had assumed the low-carb diets I'd heard a lot of US people were eating were some form of Atkins diet aimed at just losing weight. Clearly I stand corrected.
