What about this fat myth?

Newsweek Magazine is carrying this report on a fat study that scientists have been doing since the mid 1990's. They seem to be saying, "fat's OK".

But this might be confusing, so let me break it down. It doesn't matter what they may have found or didn't find, these principles are true.
  • Animal fat, saturated fat is bad for you.
  • Plant-based fats, e.g. olive oil and fats from flax, are better for you.
  • Use all foods, including fats, in moderation. Too much carb, protein can also make you fat.
  • Inactivity or lack of exercise can make you fat.
  • Snacking OR skipping breakfast will make you fat. This one is a shocker, but it is true.
I have been talking about the diet, the original diet that allows you to keep your healthy, natural size. I also found that God - from the beginning - recommended that fat be left out of the diet.

"Say to the Israelites: 'Do not eat any of the fat of cattle, sheep or goats. - Lev. 7:23

The proper amount of good fat is good, but the wrong type is a killer. Don't fall for the fat lies from the food industry. Choose health today.
