Associations of fats and carbohydrate intake with cardiovascular disease and mortality in 18 countries from five continents (PURE): a prospective cohort study

Associations of fats and carbohydrate intake with cardiovascular disease and mortality in 18 countries from five continents (PURE): a prospective cohort study: High carbohydrate intake was associated with higher risk of total mortality, whereas
total fat and individual types of fat were related to lower total mortality. Total
fat and types of fat were not associated with cardiovascular disease, myocardial infarction,
or cardiovascular disease mortality, whereas saturated fat had an inverse association
with stroke. Global dietary guidelines should be reconsidered in light of these findings.
