Quote:
I would love to embrace this study, but I can’t in good conscience, because it’s an observational study, and as such can’t prove causality. If this study were done the way it was done and showed low-fat diets to prevent peoples’ risk of death, I would tear it to pieces on my blog.
The only nice thing about this study is that it at least presents the other side for a change. Almost all of the studies you see touted in the press are observational studies like this one, but they show the opposite. So, it’s good to see one that has the press all over it showing that fat restriction is harmful. I believe it is, but studies like this don’t prove it. In or new book, we plan to address the mechanism showing how fat, especially saturated fat, is beneficial.
