Saturated fat link with heart disease questioned
This article is one doctor's opinion based on his own knowledge, research and experience.
However, it is fair to say there is an ongoing debate about how far cholesterol is a risk factor for heart disease, especially in people who are otherwise healthy.
There is also a similar debate about the use of statins in people who have no evidence of cardiovascular disease. This is alongside ongoing research into the components of LDL and the different types of lipoproteins known to increase risk the most. None of this relevant new evidence is covered by the news reporting.

Weight Loss: Do Calories Count?
Are you overweight? Are you battling to lose those excess pounds around your middle? If yes, you are definitely not alone in your struggle. According the NHS study, “Statistics on obesity, physical activity and diet: England 2011”, more than half of the adult population are overweight (66% of men and 57% of women). Included in these figures are nearly a quarter of people who are considered obese (22% of men and 24% of women). Would the figures change much if this study had included all of the UK? I suspect not.
Everyone knows that being overweight increases the probability of medical problems—but most peo...
