Perhaps you saw the headlines: "Just one high-fat meal can damage arteries!"
Kinda scary, isn't it? Well, not all as it appears. While there is tremendous promise in this research, unfortunately it's being conducted with a preconceived bias -- that dietary fat is "bad" for you.
The truth is anything is bad for you in quantity, even oxygen. The truth is also that, while these studies have good intentions, they fall short of delivering what they claim: proof that fat is clogging your arteries faster than you can say "Lipitor."
Wrong answer. The type of fat consumed, along with the carbohydrate consumed with it, is tainting these studies. However, in the most recent study on exercise and arteries, there is good stuff. I will attempt to sort out the good from the propaganda, and then let you decide.
