Be careful not to demonize fats or saturated fat. The US went through this phase in the 1970's. The result of restricting fat and saturated fat was [1] no reduction in incidence of heart disease and (2) the creation of an obesity and type II diabetes epidemic. Saturated fat raises good cholesterol (HDL) more than anything, and therefore is not as bad as once thought. High sugar intake may be the real culprit, because through insulin it has a big negative effect on appetite, blood lipids and fat storage.
