I suspect that if you get your health information from your average doctor or media source; that most of what you think you “know” about heart disease, fat and cholesterol is wrong. This is a very well done summary of why and what you can start to look into, to understand this better. Its amazing to me that a profession so important as medicine is unable to even adapt to the scientific information available to it.
