that article supports precisely everything i have been telling you over and over for all these months! it's all in there baby! like i have been saying, fat consumption as a percentage has decreased in the last few decades and carbs have exploded! like i've been trying to drum into your head, you can eat steak, eggs, butter, lard, cheese and your cholesterol and risk for heart disease will decrease, not increase! do you recall the drinking lard argument of ours???? exhibit a!
