'Good' dietary fats trim body fat in diabetic women

Wanna bet?
"Eating certain kinds of fats may actually help obese women with diabetes trim some body fat, a small study suggests.

The study, of 35 older women with type 2 diabetes, found that supplements containing two types of fats -- conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) or safflower oil -- led to healthy changes in body composition over four months.

With CLA, the women saw a dip in body mass index (BMI) -- a measure of weight in relation to height -- and in their total level of body fat.

With safflower oil, the women's BMI did not change, but they typically shed a couple pounds of fat from the trunk area.."
If the BMI did not change (with safflower oil), their weight did not change either.

Yet, they allegedly lost fat.

So where did the replacement weight come from?

Just like the results of this study, likely all of it came from bad research.
