I think this study needs to be dug into more - there seems to be things that contradict better studies.

Yup. How is the butter being consumed? Slathered on what? Vs oil slathered on what?

Oil for high temperature cooking or used for baking? So many questions

Absolute BS article. Makes me think of the Jedi mind trick, as they wave their hand in front of someone’s face, “plant butter is better for you”. F off.

I, too, encountered several items that stopped me, making me ask, "Whuh?"

And sometimes, for no good reason, you run smack into elements that are just too goofy for words, e.g.:

Dong Wang, MD, ScD, of Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard Medical School in Boston. . .

From my own experience (based on blood work, not a formal study), I’ve noticed that if I eat too many carbs, fats (including butter) seem to become a problem. But when I stick to very low-carb or carnivore eating, fats are no longer an issue—likely because I’m fat-adapted.

These are the studies that Fedgov throws money to. There is much to decifer but there’s a good amount of BS spread through out.

I do as well. Soybean oil isnt great for men. Olive is good because its nautral. All the others have to be processed to make and they aren’t as good.

That is because this study is nonsense.

Exactly right. Not all plant-based oils are good for you. Just use extra virgin olive oil. I read that imported olive oils may contain some doubtful oil, so I buy California Olive Ranch oil. It comes in a glass bottle, which is important too.

As for butter, I vaguely remember what that is, haven’t touched it in decades, it’s saturated artery-clogging fat.

I like butter and eat it daily.

No idea if I’m eating as I should but I’m eating as I prefer..

I believe dairy is demonized and seed oils (sunflower see, safflower seed, soy bean, canola etc.) are toxic but praised because these are the same people telling us to eat bugs. This agenda - seed oils - is to get rid of meat, dairy etc. and make us plant based. Brian cates has a good article about this. I'll put a few graphics below but those interested are encouraged to read at the link.

What If Everything They’ve Been Telling You About Food Is… WRONG?

By Brian Cates

Government ‘health’ experts working hand-in-glove with Big Food corporations convinced most Americans to stop cooking their food with butter, lard, and tallow, and instead use the new ‘Crisco’ and other highly processed seed oils and margarine. Because they claimed these new processed products were ‘healthier’.
