good article on good fats/bad fats

[Guest guest]

Fascinating Washington Post Article: It examines fats, high fat diets such

as Atkins, low fat diets, diets rich in healthy fats,etc. Conclusion is

that low cal diets with some healthy fats and a rich variety are best.

Subhead:

Last Month, a Provocative Article Argued That a Low- Fat Diet May Be

Responsible for America's Obesity Epidemic -- and That High-Fat May Be

Healthier. The Problem: A Lot of Good Science Suggests Otherwise

To quote from some text that was not in the on-line version: " The push and

shove over high fat or low fat ignores a huge amount of research

demonstrating the health benefits of hundreds of different foods: fruit,

vegetables, nuts, beans, grains, meats, fowl, spices, and dairy products " .

Eat a lot of different foods and you'll get a broad variety of nutrients. "
