We re regularly told to minimise the amount of saturated fats we consume, but a new study suggests that eating foods rich in these fats could actually offer some protection against certain diseases. Researchers have revealed that eating foods rich in saturated fats, which are found in cakes, fatty meats like bacon and cheese, may reduce the risk of acute pancreatitis. The US team analysed data from people in 11 countries on how different fats consumed by different nations – either unsaturated or saturated – are linked with the serious condition, where the pancreas becomes inflamed.   Saturated fat is found in foods heavily consumed in western societies, while unsaturated fats are mostly found in oils from plants and fish and are prevalent in Asian and some South American diets.
