The head of Health Canada’s Office of Nutrition Policy and Promotion is saying that “there was very consistent evidence is the need to reduce saturated fat, replacing it with unsaturated fat,”

Hopefully the next step is to correctly define which are the ‘good’ fats.

Even if folks cut back on the sugar, that alone should produce remarkable gains…“healthy fats” we can work on later.

Good point Keehan. Getting rid of sugary and starchy foods is the first step to better health.
