That's my best guess for the article being referenced in the Annals of Internal Medicine. Neither Mrs. Charen nor Nina Teicholz gave the title of the citation or gave an author.

I love animal fat! :-)
Mmmmmm ... dead cow
I don’t know what’s healthy or unhealthy anymore. And they’re not saying either. Just take some acetaminophen, 10 lbs of bacon, 100 grams of dark chocolate, and don’t worry about illegal aliens.
Nah, it's even better than that. The real answer is Dark Chocolate.
For 40 years I have been following this stuff and am now a healthy over 70. The most important thing I feel I have done is avoid sugar, products with white flour, white rice and pealed potatoes. So far as past history and animal fats, remember many of our ancestors and even grandparents were engaged in hard physical labor much of the day which burned up the fat and conditioned the circulatory system. My recommendation to myself and others is eat plenty of low carb vegetables and fruit, some whole grains, and modest amounts of other things like fish, fowl, meat, dairy including butter (but not synthetics like margerine), and an occasional sin splurge like ice cream.
Skip that.
I love the fat on a juicy steak. I do, however, prefer lean hamburgers, turkey, bison or Kobe.
I don’t mix proteins such as cheese in my omelet. Gross and I also don’t care for pizza with any meats. All veggies and a super crisp crust, otherwise I just knock off all the goodies and eat them, tossing the crust, which I rarely like.
White bread? Can’t stand the taste, except if there is a ton of peanut butter and jelly on it but, I don’t buy white bread.
Whole wheat everything is best.
Eat 2-3 things at a meal. Protein, Starch(red potatoes are excellent, sweet and don’t require butter - hate Idaho or baking potatoes and will only eat the skin) and veggies or fruit.
If you are going to junk out then that counts as a meal or even two. You are done for the day. Big bowl of popcorn with a stick of butter? two meals.
Milkshake? 300 calories and counts as a meal.
Eat tons of veggies. They fill you up, are delicious, chock full of vitamins and minerals and H20, which we all need.

This guy has been eating 3-5 eggs a day all his life and I am so friggin happy to hear this lol
I’ll tell ya what really gets me, when I was a kid we would have a Pork-Roast or Chops. The meat would be rimmed with fat -crisp and crackling. Delicious !
Now, they are breeding pigs to be lean with no or minimal fat.
Boy, do I miss the good old days...
Thanks for the post.
Bttt.
