The data in [1] show that low fat diets slow the rate of tumor growth. The data in [2] show that, with saturated fats, the amount does not influence tumor growth. It does not, as you imply, compare saturated fats to vegetable fats, it only compares whether amount in a pure diet of one or the other matters. For you to make your argument, you would need (which you do not have) a study that shows that saturated fats slow tumor growth more than unsaturated fats.

And my mother practically forced me to go on the Scarsdale Diet with her when I was a senior (because she was a hefty 14 and I was a gigantic size 12). Oh - and I hate that I identify myself as a size. I really started gaining weight when all the supermodels started saying "Oh, I eat tons of pasta" and the low-fat diets were popular. All they did was make me hungry all the time and give me migraines. Thanks for sharing your pictures. You are (and were) a hottie (even though your hairstyle has improved a bit since you were a kid).

Rab: You're absolutely right and this is why vegans are always so dour (only joking dear Cabbage Worriers!). Seriously though, it is true and it is a great worry to me that some people are so obsessed with fat, (when they should actually be obsessing about bleached and processed foods instead) that they are putting their children on low fat diets and it is starting to have adverse effects on their physical and mental health. Andy and Teddy - if you're out there, can you corroborate this? VG: I think that's a cue for some light, summer recipes Affer: Blind faith is a corruptive thing and I applaud your questing nature.

Diet however is what you eat, but "dieting" is going on a short term diet. You are right, they are not the same thing, as you have described.
