I know I said this way back but if anyone is worried about whether eating high fat causes you to be fat or whether high cholesterol foods cause high cholesterol, read Gary Taubes Good Calories, Bad Calories. It as is thoroughly researched a book on myths about foods as I’ve read. Guys like Atkins, had a program to sell, (nothing wrong with that) but covered the detail rather lightly allowing the occasional Ornish type follower to look down their nose at anyone who mentions Atkins. Taubes stuff does a great job exposing the history of the politically driven science that led to the explosion of refined carb production which… has also led to the growth in belly fat.
