In adults, does a low fat diet reduce cardiovascular events?
... There is evidence to suggest that there is no correlation between fat intake in the diet and risk of cardiovascular events. The research supports that since there is no significant relationship between decreasing the fat, patients should not be restricted to a lower fat diet. In fact, some fats, esp ...
