    Saturated fats being bad for you is a total myth, no modern study has ever proven a link between saturated fat and cardiac problems.

    Your body can get rid of all fats, when we dont have food it burns fat for energy, mostly controlled by our livers.

    Saturated fats are good for you - it's trans fat that is the problem. Your body uses or stores what it needs and eliminates what it doesn't. Many parts of your body are essential for this process, including the liver and kidneys.

    Only through a low fat diet, and LOTS of exercise
