In Defense of Fats

Elimination of all fat from the diet, as far as practicable, as well as a rigidly restricted animal fat intake, is a current medical trend. The pitfalls in the theories occur when the physiological problem is not looked at as a whole. Fats are present in every living cell, and are essential to its life. Let us recognize that it is possible to alter ingested fats according to the needs of the body. A close liaison between the physiologist, the clinician, and the meat and the milk industry is needed to provide fat of adequate properties for human consumption.
