Concerns that saturated fats have been unfairly 'demonised' prompts Government advice re-think

Concerns that saturated fats have been unfairly 'demonised' prompts Government advice re-think

"It coincides with a controversial report last month by the National Obesity Forum which recommended that people eat more fat and fewer carbohydrates.
