Four decades of medical wisdom that cutting down on saturated fats reduces the risk of heart disease may be wrong, a top cardiologist has said.
October 23/Belfast/Belfast Telegraph -- Four decades of medical wisdom that cutting down on saturated fats reduces the risk of heart disease may be wrong, a top cardiologist has said.
