Because they’re running counter to big agribusiness and other evil government and corporate types, it piques my interest, but most of these people seem dangerously adjacent to “carnivore diet” weirdos. I’m vegan I’m not gonna use tallow dude. Coconut oil would be fine thanks.

Anyone smarter than me know the real score?

    :im-vegan: too and I don't know about differences between individual sat/unsat fats but I think it still stands biologically that saturated fats stick to blood vessel walls and harden cell membranes, while unsaturated fats dont and make cell membranes more flexible and efficient

      Artery disease very dependent on the individual, but about 1/3 from diet (refined sugars can be just as damaging as sat. Fats),

      1/3 from genetics, 1/3 from activity/lifestyle
