Geen verzadigd vet eten, krijgen mensen al lange tijd te horen van artsen…..maar verzadigd vet is niet de schurk die er van gemaakt wordt, zoals Remco Kuipers ook al aangeeft hierboven.
Dr John Briffa zegt dit ook:
…[quote]. there is a distinct trend which shows that as percentages of saturated fat rise in the diet, risk of death from heart disease fall. [/quote]
Procentueel meer verzadigd vet eten, blijkt samen te gaan met minder risico op dood door hartziekten dus.
[quote]France, as we know, has a relatively high percentage of saturated fat in the diet, and relatively low rates of heart disease, but it is by no means an isolated instance. The same is true of a range of other countries including the UK, Germany, Austria, Finland, Belgium, Iceland, the Netherlands and Switzerland.
At the other end of the spectrum, we have several countries where the proportion of saturated fat in the diet is low, but heart disease rates are high. For example, Georgia has about one-third the saturated fat in the diet compared to France, yet death rates due to heart disease are almost 7 times higher.
Taken as a whole, the evidence shows that the French paradox is not a paradox at all (it’s exactly what you’d expect).
Here’s to a healthy heart
