    The benefits are amazing! Simply a tbsp of virgin olive oil or all natural PB with 3 of your meals a day can control/lower cholesterol, raise HDL and lower LDL. Clean your lipid panel, etc!
    Organic cage free eggs, the yours are rich in saturated fats and so good for you
    Do these things and the outcome of overall health leads to weight loss and weight control. :) hope this into helped!!!
    I can just more options if needed!!

    it may lower cholesterol and raise HDL /lower LDL in many people. but with people Like me who have familial hypercholesterolemia,we have to watch our fats(all fats) and cholesterol. since I now eat low fat,low cholesterol and high fiber along with taking a medication my cholesterol is now in the normal numbers(well was,I have to get tested again wed.)

    "The SFA stearic acid was associated with increased CRC risk (ORSA = 1.17, 95% CI: 1.01-1.35, P = 0.041)."

    I am not quite ready to jump on the saturated fat is good bandwagon.

    Just a little tip. Learn which foods contain saturated fats and which contain polysaturated and monosaturated fats first. Then at least one part of your statement would have truth.

    It's polyUNsaturated/monoUNsaturated fats. Sorry I had to correct this.

    Stopped reading there. You might want to educate yourself on which fats are saturated before trying to "educate" others

    Shall I list them for you ?

    Yeah, FYI olive oil is not a saturated fat, so you might want to give this one some thought :neutral:

    Nutrient Composition of Extra Virgin Olive Oil

    This is the nutrient content of 100 grams of olive oil (1):

    Saturated fat: 13.8%.
    Monounsaturated fat: 73% (most of it the 18 carbon long oleic acid).
    Omega-6: 9.7%.
    Omega-3: 0.76%.

    Do you have some peer reviewed research supporting how saturated fats lead to better health lead to weight loss? Or are you perhaps a research scientist with something published I could look for?

    Those aren’t peer-reviewed scientific studies. I’ll listen to the “veterans” here rather than some random guy that thinks he knows what he’s talking about.

    I wasn't going to reply to this thread, but...

    How does one get a paper published in Journal of Applied Physiology, FASEB, Biochemical Biophysical Acta, Journal of the National Cancer Institute or Journal of the American College of Nutrition without peer review?

    Edited because your comment was not about the content of the studies but only about whether they had been peer reviewed or not.
