Saturated fat and Type 2 diabetes: where do we stand?
Dietary treatment of Type 2 diabetes has long been open to controversy and debate, and this is especially true of the relationship between saturated fat (SFA) and cardiovascular disease (CVD).

| description | Dietary treatment of Type 2 diabetes has long been open to controversy and debate, and this is especially true of the relationship between saturated fat (SFA) and cardiovascular disease (CVD). Over the past couple of years, various studies [1–3] have resulted in headlines claiming that experts have got it wrong for the past 30 years, that there is no link between SFA and heart disease, and that healthy diets should include plenty of butter and bacon. In addition, a small (but vocal) group of activists now claim that carbohydrate, not fat, is the culprit and that people with Type 2 diabetes should adopt low-carbohydrate, high (saturated)-fat diets in order to lose weight, improve glycaemic control and reduce CVD risk. This has led to much confusion among both people with diabetes and health professionals alike, and in August 2015 Diabetes UK and the British Dietetic Association’s (BDA) Diabetes Specialist Group joined forces to review the evidence for dietary fat intake in people with Type 2 diabetes and to formulate a Policy Statement [4]. |
