Mary Enig was one of our world’s foremost authorities on fats and oils, a PhD nutritional biochemist. The claim that saturated animal fats cause heart disease and should be replaced with vegetable oils is one of the worst health myths of the 20th century.

What causes obesity is not a mystery. This has been well known since the 1800s, but unfortunately it is not taught to doctors in medical schools. It is excessive starches and sugars that causes obesity, and the proper treatment is a low-carbohydrate diet.

The false claim that saturated fat causes heart disease is a perfect example of how a big lie, if repeated often enough, is eventually believed. There is nothing unhealthy about a high-fat, low-carb diet. Humans have eaten this way for millions of years.

Saturated fat is good for you, but we’ve been advised by medical and health authorities to consume vegetable oils and margarine instead, which, unlike natural saturated fats, really do cause disease. This horrific advice has sickened and killed millions.

We need to eat the traditional diet that has kept humans healthy for millennia, not diets based on ideology, indoctrination, brainwashing, and so-called animal rights, such as vegetarian or vegan diets. These are not diets that are appropriate for humans.
