Is the french paradox true?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Controversial: The french paradox is the concept that french people eat a diet rich in saturated fats but surprisingly have a low incidence of coronary heart disease. It is controversial. One explanation may be that in france there is significant consumption of red wine which has been linked in some research to decreased risk for heart attacks.
