The fact is, there has never been solid evidence for the idea that these fats cause disease. We only believe this to be the case because nutrition policy has been derailed over the past half-century by a mixture of personal ambition, bad science, politics and bias.

It looks like it’s the foods that we’ve been eating instead of fats (grains, oils and sugar) that have been doing us harm.
