Sorry Todd that is wrong to group the two. Trans fat is a horrible laboratory concoction that should be avoided at ALL costs.
Saturated fats do NOT increase any risk of heart disease. Transfats, canola oils, margarine.. all that junk does. Saturated fats are the best for you out of all the fats, in organic eggs, butter from grass fed cow. Raw milk from grass fed cows, and from animal fats.
Todd, check out
Nourishing Traditions if you want the know what is truely good for you. Most of the stuff you got it right, but your body needs saturated fat like an engine needs oil. There is a LOT of 'unlearning' that needs to be done about these topics.

Progress report, lately I'm feeling like a nascar who doesnt need pit stops. I've cut out a LOT of ALL grains and sugar in my diet. I'm eating meats, eggs, fish, vegetables butter and dairy with a little bit of grains.. not much. I think my steady increase in consuming Raw milk has made the biggest change in my health. It is truly a super food. I am hoping that is cures my allergies this spring too. We will see.
Our challenge today is finding REAL food that is not toxic. You want it Raw and you'll feel like a million bucks. My belt is 2 notches smaller since Christmas.. I don't get much exercise either.. just normal activity.
Everyone, please watch and give me your feedback... wheat is in 'everything'
