the sooner we get away from BEEF

I never said "eat ALOT of saturated fats" I said eat in MODERATION.

Don't go out to either extreme.

 

how much saturated fat is healthy?

 

15 grams a day is fine.

 

15 grams per day is essential?

 

Go ask a cardiologist, mine says 15-20 grams a day for my size is perfectly healthy and normal.

 

cardiologists MAKE money when you CREATE a problem. i don't need a cardiologist because i don't eat any saturated fat to speak of

Dean Ornish is a cardiologist of world renown, BTW. Did you read what he had to say

 

Well, considering he's been a close friend for 20+ yrs, I REALLY don't feel any sense of worry that he is trying to "create" a problem

 

Well, I'm sure you live a very nice life thinking everything is a conspiracy

 

the question is very clear.. how much saturated fat is essential? ask him this

 

Well, the answer is NOT. There are a couple schools of thought and each thinks the opposite of the other.

All I know is someone who is TRAINED in the field says that it's ok to eat some saturated fats but to keep them in check because they KNOW that too much IS bad for you.

Again....GIVE MODERATION A CHANCE!
