Going Forward With a Healthy Heart

When it comes to saturated fats raising cholesterol, the topic needs some explaining. Saturated fat does in fact raise cholesterol but not in what’s considered an unhealthy or unsafe way for most people. Certain saturated fats, when compared with polyunsaturated fats, do usually raise total cholesterol levels in most people, but we now know that total cholesterol is a poor predictor of heart disease in general .

In fact, saturated fats raise HDL cholesterol, which is commonly known as the “good cholesterol”, while polyunsaturated fats lower this type — and low cholesterol is almost certainly even worse than high !

Despite the existing evidence that consuming cholesterol isn’t the cause of heart disease, most government-funded health organizations, including the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute, still recommend limiting saturated fats. Going forward, we can expect guidelines like this to be updated to reflect the most recent study findings. Over the last decade, many other countries and health promotion groups have already modified their dietary recommendations to reflect the current evidence .
