It depends on the animals and fats. eg red meats correlate with heart disease and some cancers.

  On mobile, sorry for my lack of sources. If I recall, the animal meats/fat's linked to cancer studies claim themselves that it could be the way factory farms work or the meats being processed that caused the correlation, and they did not reproduce results with organic meats. As for the heart disease, there is a well known heart sergeon who seems to have studies supporting that it is excess carbs that lead to inflammation in the arteries that leads to plaque build up that leads to heart disease. Food for thought.

    And there are other well known surgeons that have articles indicating animal based diets lead to inflammation and etc. I’m not trying to argue vegan vs Keto or whatever here. If you choose either of those options you’re almost immediately looking to cook more for yourself -the diet equivalent of being a loner (sorta). (Side note, though, the animal based options are much more prevalent than the vegan options.) This may seem a small thing, but people really do socialize around food to a large extent.

  This is contested now--in part due to the sugar industries tactics of trying to make saturated fat the evil. They didn't control for nitrates/processed meats either in some of the studies. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0095ZMPTU/ref=dp-kindle-redirect?_encoding=UTF8&btkr=1 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0095ZMPTU/ref=dp-kindle-redirect?...
