"It really is very difficult to imagine how animal fat could be bad for you, since for 2.5 million years our ancestors were mainly top level carnivore Hunter Gatherers. Our evolutionary diet is based around eating the whole animal, including all the really fatty bits none of us eat today.
There is no scientific evidence that links saturated fat directly to heart disease. It was only ever based on the observation that:
(1) Saturated fat causes a rise in cholesterol
(2) High cholesterol is associated with cardiovascular disease.
The trouble is that (1) is only true over the very short term (in people that don't have familial hypercholesterolemia), and that (2) has largely been debunked now that we know more about different types of blood lipids and their influence on CV disease."

The above was posted by Borofergie today on the flog. For those who do not know Fergie he was diagnosed a few years back a type two diabetic. Heavily overweight and many of the usual symptoms. It took him around twenty minutes to get on the case. Low carb high fat and exercise. In no time at all the weight was gone, the symptoms gone, and no meds, and guess what, he took up marathon running, yes you read that right. Fergie is currently training for the Berlin marathon.
Good to see you back Fergie.
