Well what was the doctor intending for you to accomplish by cutting down on saturated fat? Weight loss or something else?
Weight loss.
Oh wow. Based on everything I know about weight-loss, I'm pretty sure that isn't right.
Yes, typically saturated fat consumption (but ironically not cholesterol anymore) is used to explain heart disease in mainstream nutrition, not necessarily obesity, but the argument there may be the 'more energy dense than other macronutrients' one.
