they are though? unsaturated are the good ones. "saturated fat is good actually" is a psyop by the meat and dairy industry to make "good old" lard, butter and bacon seem healthy and it's been successful in making westerners eat even more crap than before
edit: also the dark evil side of veganism is in on this. the vegan collaborationists if you will. the ones that want to make you eat virgin coconut oil
I will never eat virgins
i also only eat things that have been fucked at least once
My bad i always get them mixed up i should have checked. I remember the low fat craze being about reducing all fat rather than just saturated and then packing everything with sweetners instead to make processed food more appealing when its just shit
I often hear the thing about low-fat products replacing fat with sugar, but what kind of products does that work for? if you reduce the fat and add sugar, the product will become sweet when it wasn't before. i guess it's possible for junk like cookies and ice cream that can be fat-heavy and already have sugar, replace some of the fat with even more sugar?
anyway my psyop is soy. most people realised the "soy is estrogen" myth is pure BS, but somehow it had huge residual effects where soy got a rep for being generally "unhealthy". this made shops give more shelf space to inferior milks like oat and rice, and expensive bougie (and more environmentally destructive) milks like almond and macadamia, and the superior milk, good old soy, got put aside. vegan protein powders in the west are now mostly made from peas (which is fine, but soy has a higher protein content so why not use the superior bean). soy is pretty much a superfood and the meat lobby successfully made the very name sound unhealthy
Some saturated fats are healthy, and we need them. Coconut oil immediately comes to mind.
No the unsaturated fats are a cheap industrial product that mess up mitochondria and a whole host of other effects. https://fireinabottle.net/
website definitely not affiliated with the meat industry
unsaturated fats are not industrial products lol
The conveyor belt of almonds falling into my mouth. Sounds very industrial to me
Some are good, some are bad.
No but the vast majority of unsaturated fat in a standard modern diet will be. Ancestral human diets involved mostly saturated fat (except for a few exceptions like the Inuit) but after WWII people started eating mostly unsaturated fat.
You're maybe thinking of trans fats, which have been banned for decades.
That's one of the worst websites I've ever seen, pure meat industry propaganda.
No I'm talking about how your mitochondria membranes have a composition directly determined by the ratio of saturated to unsaturated fat you eat. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC5952932/
