Except the way fat is metabolized is far better for you than what’s been paraded as “healthy”.
I’d sooner eat a high fat diet than even moderate carb or any kind of low fat diet.
Got diabetes in the family, I could lecture on how to manage it with diet (Type II), I’ve read so much research over the decades. Fat is crucial for stabilizing blood glucose.
For an introduction, read “The Zone” by Barry Sears (the 1994 book, nothing else called the Zone, the rest is marketing garbage). It explains (indirectly) why a high fat diet isn’t the Bad Thing we’ve been lead to believe.
Saturated fat is processed by the liver from Chylomicrons to VLDLs to LDLs in an incredibly taxing process directly responsible for fatty liver disease. No faster way to get diabetes than eating lots of saturated fat and sugar. Both are absolutely horrible and very poorly tolerated by humans, who are apes that evolved eating mostly plants. These are empirical facts. Stop treating food like a religion and just eat a fucking vegetable.
They didn’t specify saturated fats, but I didn’t look up the book, so it may have.
Forum discussions about food are like a biochemist’s personal hell. No offense, but you’re all dumb as shit.
Fat is crucial definitely. But even more important is fiber.
