Many of us have long been told that saturated fat, the type found in meat, butter and cheese, causes heart disease. But a large and exhaustive new analysis by a team of international scientists found no evidence that eating saturated fat increased heart attacks and other cardiac events.

The new findings are part of a growing body of research that has challenged the accepted wisdom that saturated fat is inherently bad for you and will continue the debate about what foods are best to eat.

For decades, health officials have urged the public to avoid saturated fat as much as possible, saying it should be replaced with the unsaturated fats in foods like nuts, fish, seeds and vegetable oils.

But the new research, published on Monday in the journal Annals of Internal Medicine, did not find that people who ate higher levels of saturated fat had more heart disease than those who ate less. Nor did it find less disease in those eating higher amounts of unsaturated fat, including monounsaturated fat like olive oil or polyunsaturated fat like corn oil.

“My take on this would be that it’s not saturated fat that we should worry about” in our diets, said Dr. Rajiv Chowdhury, the lead author of the new study and a cardiovascular epidemiologist in the department of public health and primary care at Cambridge University.

I have a Paleo cookbook on my Kindle, noticed "bacon" as an ingredient a lot, did a search for the word, got 121 results in a 300 recipe cookbook.

BACON IS BACK!!!

We've known this is true of the Inuit for years.

A lot of it depends on your genetics, some people just don't build up the plaque on their arteries no matter how much saturated fat they eat, with others it goes straight on their arteries...

Though most people who have heart problems tend to have great success if they are going on a vegan diet.

Can you tell that I translated a ton of studies in my days (I so don't miss being a student)

I got through 3-4lbs of bacon a week.

I cook it on baking sheets in the oven, and drain the fat to use for frying other stuff, and stick it in the fridge for snacks.

You have no idea how satisfying it is to, at 11pm get a snack craving, and pull out a handful of bacon as a snack, as the good thing you should eat. And to then hit the scale in the morning and find you lost weight.
I've found that I love eating bacon with mixed berries. Something about the sweetness of the raspberries and blackberries just sets off bacon perfectly for me.

I also make bacon cup eggs, for quick easy on the go breakfast: http://tastykitchen.com/recipes/breakfastbrunch/eggs-breakfastbrunch/bacon-eggs-cups/

I got a craving one night and put a bunch in an ice cream sundae. It was frickin' awesome!

I once went to a restaurant and asked the waitress if the bacon was Kosher. She assured me it was, and when she came back, she had this pissed-off look on her face, which told me she'd asked someone in the back. I love fucking with people that way.

It sounds like that fellow's study had results similar to one in 1973 (I think it was June issue, but it was American Laboratory magazine.. long time ago) that tried to figure out why Inuits, with a diet extremely high in saturated fats, had little to no heart disease... wait for it... until they started eating a civilized diet.

The biochemical basis for the results were attributed to the fact that high cholesterol alone will not cause plaque formation in the blood vessels. But, when xanthine oxidase is added, it strips the lining of the blood vessels and the cholesterol plates out.

The conclusion of the biochemistry team that did the study was that you can either eliminate cholesterol or xanthine oxidase from a diet and reduce the incidence of heart disease to a rarity. But, if both are present in the diet, the risk for damage to the circulatory system will happen and heart disease rates will climb radically.

Xanthine oxidase was listed as a breakdown chemical produced when animal fats are heated to high heat. (AKA, fried foods.) And, it seems that ultrasonic breakdown of milk fat produced xanthine oxidase as well. (Homogenization of milk)

I really re-thought my cooking methods after reading that study. I learned to poach fish instead of batter frying.

Bacon does not survive in my house, especially if it is bacon jerky. Same goes for the REAL bacon bits. Scrambled eggs with bacon bits and cheese (I can't make an omelet...) is my favorite, especially if I can't sleep.

Ok, bacon is good. Crisp rendered fat has its own kind of appeal. But I rather prefer a good sausage.
