    Everything is bad in excessive, especially oils and fats given their high calory content. Sugar may be ““worse””, doesn’t mean fats are good

      Everyone needs calories, if you don’t get them from fats and oils, you’re left with carbs and sugars, both of which have a higher glycemic index.

      So yes, it does mean fats are good, because you need energy to live. If you want to tell me there’s some other form of energy that you know about that’s better than any of those three, please let me know.

      Until then, perhaps you could show me the science that proves how bad fats supposedly are.

        That’s not what I’m saying, a healthy diet consists of different sources of calories. There’s no “better source than others”, you need all in different quantities. Some are worse in excess, but you still need all for a balanced nutrition.

          Then I don’t know what you’re disagreeing with in my first comment, since you agree that fats aren’t actually bad.

          In fact, since you’ve said that you need “all” for a balanced diet, it seems like you agree that fats actually are “good”.
