• Do People at Low Risk of Heart Disease Need to Cut Back on Saturated Fat? (everydayhealth.com) — A Fountain Valley cardiologist at Orange Coast Medical Center is urging locals not to take new, buzzworthy research on saturated fat as a green light to load up on butter and red meat. She and other experts explain that while some trials show limited short-term harm for low-risk people, long-term heart risks and current guidelines still support keeping saturated fats in check.
