    This is a very confusing post, because saturated fat is not nearly as harmful as trans fat, which is hydrogenated fat, generally done to make unsaturated fat behave like it’s saturated making it harder. Trans fat is extremely unhealthy, while many oils like Omega 3-6-9 are saturated fats, but are essential to your health.

    But I absolutely agree in your skepticism about a “created” saturated fat. There is very good reason to be skeptical about any industrially modified oil or fat.
