A member asked:
My family consumes butter which is 99% fat free and also mayoniese which is also the same. is it good for a person with ldl to consume everyday?why?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Inconsistent data: Butter cannot be 99% fat free and be butter. We all have ldl. To have a healthy diet, make it rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, nuts; low in saturated fats including butter and mayonnaise; no tobacco, and not more than one drink a day. Exercise at least 30 minutes each day.
