That's a big one, it soothes my concern that "omg I'm gonna clog my arteries" by eating all that sat. fat. Other articles, including this one tweeted by Dr. Eades adds an anecdote: http://www.ajcn.org/content/94/6/1433.abstract?etoc
Just seems that it's not the villain the CSPI made it out to be, and I've had good luck with eating a high-fat diet so far.
Not sure how parallel this is but I eat a lot of eggs and haven't been concerned about the 'it causes high cholesterol'. I read something way back that said how people mixed up the cholesterol in shrimp and eggs for the kind of cholesterol that fills your arteries?
And [MENTION=736]nanook[/MENTION], dang son it sounds like you have a lot more going on than simple metabolism issues. I know you are against 'fad diets' but some of things you mention sounds like the inspiration for the guy who went totally on vegetable smoothies for 100 days or something. In the movie "Fat, Sick, and Nearly Dead". I would look into the pH of food if I were you. Instead of concentrating on burning calories at this point I'd look into healing the other issues going on with inflammation and allergies. And potatoes and white bread (in croissants) are still potent 'white starches' that are no-nos in low carb diets.
