@paulsaladinomd2: The French know the secret…

Justanerd :

Cool, if France is proof that saturated fat is healthy, does that mean that Japan and China are proof unsaturated fats are healthy?

french paradox +6 The French Paradox refers to the observation that French people have a relatively low incidence of coronary heart disease (CHD) despite a diet high in saturated fats (cheese, butter). Popularized in the 1980s, this phenomenon suggests factors like moderate red wine consumption, smaller portion sizes, and higher vegetable intake contribute to heart health despite high fat consumption. PubMed Central (PMC) (.gov) PubMed Central (PMC) (.gov) +4 Key Aspects of the French Paradox: The Paradox: High dietary saturated fat/cholesterol usually correlates with high CHD mortality, yet France shows lower mortality rates despite this, contradicting traditional lipid hypotheses. Wine Consumption: A key theory is that regular, moderate wine consumption (particularly red wine, containing polyphenols) acts as a cardioprotective factor. Studies suggested that moderate alcohol intake (~48 grams/day) could lower cardiovascular mortality. Dietary Habits: The French diet, while rich in fat, often includes more varied, high-quality ingredients, higher vegetable consumption, and less processed food compared to other Western diets. Lifestyle Factors: Cultural habits such as smaller portion sizes, lower snacking rates, and slower, more mindful eating practices (taking time over meals) are cited as potential contributors to overall health. Theoretical Explanations: Various theories exist, ranging from the beneficial effects of cheese intake (which may affect visceral fat differently than other fats) to the "time lag" theory, which suggests the population was simply experiencing a delay in the negative impact of dietary changes.

Didn’t they use to say the same thing for Italians but olive oil instead of butter

Nayru :

Unsaturated fats are better for you than saturated fats. now a lot of the seed oils that you buy at the store are low quality unsaturated fats, and generally probably aren’t as good for you as high-quality butter or tallow would be. however, if you were to get good unsaturated fats, such as high-quality olive oil or avocado oil, it would be better for you then something like butter

Saturated fats are also chips fried in seed oils

are u a cia agent?

Another element…they walk a lot!

Y@ :

Japan has the highest life expectancy on the planet, yet has quite high seed oil consumption.

Neuronsofyourexistence :

Paul clearly isn't up to date on the reasons as to why this study is not useful when talking about saturated fat. The evidence is clear.

🦭 :

heart diseases take decades to show up. look at those rates in a couple of decades and things might change

@Rumblinwheels :

Always twists the narrative to suit his case
