Thanks for the link, it's actually pretty much how I've been transitioning my diet over to (I've been experimenting with a pescetarian/DASH way of eating). I still include 2-3 servings of dairy every day, usually in the form of Greek yogurt and cheese, but I'm more mindful of how it fits into my day's eating plan.
eta: the article linked talks about how dairy is being minimized a lot with the new guidelines, but it is listed under the protein section-
https://food-guide.canada.ca/en/healthy-eating-recommendations/make-it-a-habit-to-eat-vegetables-fruit-whole-grains-and-protein-foods/eat-protein-foods/
Yes, the recommendation is to limit red and processed meats as well as saturated fats from dairy:
"The emphasis is on a high proportion of plant-based foods and replacing foods that contain mostly saturated fat (cream, high fat cheese, butter and the like) with foods that contain mostly unsaturated fats, like nuts, seeds and avocados. A diet higher in vegetables and fruits is linked to a lower risk of cardiovascular disease, eating more nuts or soy protein can help improve blood fat levels and processed meat has been linked to higher risks of colorectal cancer, Health Canada says."
Obviously the work of vegan sympathizers and crypto-vegetarians being fronted by the secret vegan billionaire cabal trying to keep people from eating the beef vital to their health and environment. The Pentavirate is also involved.
I need in on this vegan billionaire action. Life as a vegan thousandaire is getting tedious.
Better than being a hundredaire
Or a buck-fiftyaire.
You'll have to stick to whipping cream on that budget.
I might occasionally be able to throw some ground beef in there with it.
The perfect keto storm...
Be sure to get the horseradish flavored heavy whipping cream if you do that. Thank me later.
Maybe blend it all into a shake?
Throw whipping cream, ground beef, coffee, coconut oil, butter and some ACV (because why not?) into a blender.
Added bonus? It would definitely act as a 'cleanse' too!
Imma gonna be rich, I tell ya! No more buck-fifty club for me.

Yes, it's interesting to know. It will be interesting to see if it is replicated in other studies, it will be interesting to see if there is a benefit if we can further determine what exactly is providing the benefit. But why would you assume on the strength of this study alone that heavy whipping cream would do even more?
Could it have something to do with the fact that you're constantly promoting the consumption of heavy whipping cream anyway?
Higher fat content of fatty acids.
WM has dropped HWC by the half gallon and the quart size is the price of a half gallon of half and half so no WOE change in coffee. Well that's what I get at McDonald's with my two quarter pound fresh beef with mustard.6 -

In other news, apparently my friendly local supermarket giant now stocks extra thick double cream as well, to fill in the niche between double cream and clotted cream.
What does this mean for our health outcomes as a country?
And why on earth am I reading about the fat composition of different kinds of cream when I don't even eat dairy products?!

Hence the "don't really have it" as opposed to, for example, "don't sell it what so bloody ever".
Just saying.
FWIW, before I made that post, I did online supermarket searches on different websites, and looked at the number of instances of whipping cream vs double cream. Double cream brought up far more products of that name, which neatly explains why I know the one term and not the other.

P.S. I'm in a budget supermarket right now, shopping for lunch.
My choices are confined to single cream, double cream, vanilla custard, soured cream, crème fraîche, fat reduced crème fraîche and something called real dairy cream which comes in a can. Light "real dairy cream" in a can is out of stock.

Well there was that person injecting himself to "hack" his genes to become more muscular. I think it was some amateur kind of CRISPR or other gene therapy.
Even though a gene injection isn't a vaccine, I'd find it pretty funny if health woo "vaccines" became a thing. I'd like to see the crunchies argue how big Pharma tested vaccines are toxic but the amateur formulas their naturopath injects them with is making them fit and thin.6 -
We have whipping cream and heavy whipping cream, but if I'm reading the numbers right our heavy whipping cream is similar to your whipping cream (our whipping cream has a bit less fat). I'm not aware of a US version of double cream, but it's not something I've ever looked for and I'm not in a grocery aisle. Quick search on instacart brought up only cheeses, yogurts, cream cheese, and ice cream.0

So you have not one, but two types of whipping cream? The UK is even worse served than I thought!
Sainsbury's (for the purpose of balance) stocks one brand of 38.9% fat whipping cream in two different sizes, https://www.sainsburys.co.uk/shop/gb/groceries/kosher/hopla-whipped-cream-spray-can-250ml and this gem:

The canned cream from Aldi is amazing on coffee and hot cocoa (which is even more amazing mixed with peppermint Schnapps...)

The whipping cream I buy once a year for my Xmas Trifle whips very nicely... maybe you have had defective whipping cream in the past?
I thought in the US heavy cream was the same as our double, and half and half similar to our single cream.
A bit jealous of the Heavy Whipping Cream. That sound exciting.

Higher fat content of fatty acids.
What? What does that even mean, what is it in relation to? It sounds odd to say fat content of fatty acids. Like saying the water content of H2O. At best I could think you could mean that some fats will have a glyceride on them, so essentially there are fats with less fatty acids, but I don't think that is what you're talking about.3 -
Do we have an equivalent to the half and half? I'm now using this table to compare creams.

At this rate, cream composition will be my specialist subject on Mastermind.
