The science on why animal fat is good for humans
Polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats are fine, but saturated fat (plant or animal), besides increasing your risk of CVD, also <i>decreases insulin sensitivity</i>, something people who flock to faddish fat-heavy diets like keto should be concerned about:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov&#x2F;pmc&#x2F;articles&#x2F;PMC5291812&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov&#x2F;pmc&#x2F;articles&#x2F;PMC5291812&#x2F;</a><p>BTW, your body can make all of the saturated fat it needs from the essential unsaturated (o3&#x2F;o6) fats you consume. It&#x27;s strange how people say things like &quot;there&#x27;s no such thing as an essential dietary carbohydrate,&quot; but don&#x27;t acknowledge the same about saturated fat. Also wild game meat isn&#x27;t nearly as fatty as domesticated meat, and the fat is much less saturated:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov&#x2F;pmc&#x2F;articles&#x2F;PMC4975792&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov&#x2F;pmc&#x2F;articles&#x2F;PMC4975792&#x2F;</a>
