Hot on the heals of the Danish tax on saturated fats, comes a study from the Netherlands that found that consuming saturated fatty acids is associated with a modest increase in serum total cholesterol -- but not with cardiovascular disease.
Replacing dietary saturated fats with carbohydrates is associated with an increase in cardiovascular disease risk. From this we could assert that saturated fats are good for us and quality beef, organic butter and other animal foods are back in; bread, pasta, rice, cakes, biscuits and so on are out.
Could it be that a Government of an advanced, well educated country could impose a tax… on the wrong food!
The evidence suggests that this may be so. Click here for more information on this stunning theory.
