EurekAlert: However, the long-held beliefs about the impact of saturated fatty acids (SFA) on the risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) are being challenged by a new perspectives paper from an international symposium, held at the University of Copenhagen in May, 2010 and chaired by Professors Arne Astrup and Walter Willet. The paper in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, currently available online, addresses "The role of reducing intakes of saturated fat in the prevention of cardiovascular disease. Where does the evidence stand in 2010?"
