Myth: Fat is bad for us
誤區一：脂肪危害身體健康
"Real fat is not bad for us," says, Harcombe. "It's man-made fats we should be demonising. Why do we have this idea that meat is full of saturated fat? In a 100g pork chop, there is 2.3g of unsaturated fat and 1.5g of saturated fat."
赫爾康比說：“天然脂肪不會危害身體健康，人工脂肪才應是我們敬而遠之的。我們為何要斷定肉類含有過多飽和脂肪？事實上，每100克豬排中含有2.3克不飽和脂肪和1.5克飽和脂肪。”
Fat is essential for every cell in the body. In Britain [according to the Family Food Survey of 2008, we are deficient in the fat-soluble vitamins A, D and E, which are responsible for healthy eyesight, bone strength, mental health, cancer and blood vessel protection and, therefore, heart health. We need to eat real fat in order for these vital vitamins to be absorbed into the body.
脂肪對于身體細胞來說至關重要。2008年英國家庭飲食調查顯示，英國人體內缺乏脂溶性維生素A，D和E，而這類維生素恰恰可以保護視力和心理健康，強壯骨骼；同時防止癌癥，保護心腦血管健康。為保證身體吸收這些必需的維生素，我們需要適量食用天然脂肪。
