Though the fat are necessary to a body, it is a nutrient given a wide unfavorable compound in our country. The starting point of this minus image is measures of the cardiovascular disease that the U.S. Government shows the high prevalence in the country. As the nutrition guidance for anti- cardiovascular disease, decrease of the meal intake fat was carried out politically. The harm that had too much a fat intake, the fat heavy theory was that is to say proposed by McGovern report. The U.S. Government spent enormous expense and time and a talented person to prove this opinion, but the clinical data to support was not provided. The U.S. Government carried out the large-scale intervention examination of the long term of low-fat dietary, but the risk of a cardiovascular disease and breast cancer and the colorectal cancer did not fall down.
This proof was important as a political measure, but failed clinically. Adaptation to our country by the literal translation of the McGovern report led to the spread of the minus image of fat. The cause of the mistake is the difference of the fat intake volume between Japan and U.S.A. and a difference of the nutrient-related genetic polymorphism of the two countries.
If we control total calorie intake and enforce an exercise custom, we can erase the negative action of fats.
