Alternatively the beneficial PUFA came from fish.<br />There is a similar Italian study of fibrosis and response to antivirals in Hep C patients by diet (I can't always find this online, but when it comes up again I'll link it). This indicates a protective effect of oleic, a neutral effect of SFAs, and a harmful effect of PUFA in this context. Again, this could be indicating some special property of olive oil, esp vs. other oils.Puddleghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00953398103675945541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36840063.post-65955303612512857362008-01-27T21:33:00.000+00:002008-01-27T21:33:00.000+00:00Hi Stan,I found this one too, flipside this time.T...Hi Stan,<BR/><BR/>I found this one too, flipside this time.<BR/><BR/><A HREF="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/14583769?ordinalpos=20&itool=EntrezSystem2.PEntrez.Pubmed.Pubmed_ResultsPanel.Pubmed_RVDocSum" REL="nofollow">These people</A> are more typical researchers, notice they only included studies looking at fat intake in their meta-analysis.<BR/><BR/>Unfortunately they're using this flawed information to try and save people's lives, and <A HREF="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18214671?ordinalpos=1&itool=EntrezSystem2.PEntrez.Pubmed.Pubmed_ResultsPanel.Pubmed_RVDocSum" REL="nofollow">failing</A>.<BR/><BR/>Sad<BR/><BR/>PeterPeterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14527788116058656094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36840063.post-72284742956162322532008-01-26T18:36:00.000+00:002008-01-26T18:36:00.000+00:00Hi Peter,Interesting studies, here are some more o...Hi Peter,<BR/><BR/>Interesting studies, here are some more on this subject from my vault:<BR/><BR/>Isabelle Romieu, Eduardo Lazcano-Ponce, Luisa Maria Sanchez-Zamorano, Walter Willett, <BR/>and Mauricio Hernandez-Avila,<BR/><BR/> "Carbohydrates and the Risk of Breast Cancer among Mexican Women", Cancer Epidemiol Biomarkers Prev 2004 13: 1283-1289. <BR/><BR/>Comment: for every additional 1% of carbohydrate calories consumed above 52%, the relative risk of breast cancer was incrementally increasing by about 10%! <BR/><BR/>The following paper demonstrated that a low fat high vegetable diet was useless for fighting cancer! <BR/><BR/>John P.
