Re: Study Finds Low-Fat Diet Won't Stop Cancer or Heart Disease

Now comes the problem (and the snow job)as to the catagory of fats
pertaining to cholesterol increases, or will there be silence.

Where does it say they were mostly fat?

"The largest study ever to ask whether a low-fat diet keeps women from
getting cancer or heart disease has found that the diet had no effect.

The $415 million federal study involved nearly 49,000 women aged 50 to
79 who were followed for eight years. In the end, those assigned to a
low-fat diet had the same rates of breast cancer, colon cancer heart
attack and stroke as those who ate whatever they pleased, researchers
are reporting today."

Don't know what those mostly fat women were eating but they didn't lose
any weight.
Eating low fat while living off of cokes and low fat process foods
isn't much of a diet.

35% had body mass of 25-29
23% was 30-34
15% was >35
after 6 years only lost .8kg.
