Ok, I couldn't resist that, but that's not what I'm talking about...

Bacon...salt...saturated fats.

Almost everybody loves all three of them.

I know I do.

And most people assume bacon and saturated fats
will clog up your arteries and salt will CAUSE high blood
pressure, all while making you fatter.

However...as you’re going to discover in this interesting
new article from the Nutrition Nerd, this simply may NOT
be the case:

==> The REAL TRUTH about Salt, Bacon, & Saturated Fats (article)

It's interesting stuff, and in the article, he cites 11
studies to back up everything he's saying.

The part about the nitrates in bacon was an eye-opener for
me...especially so-called "nitrate free" bacon.

Now, I'm not saying "go eat bacon every day" or anything like
that, but if you've been completely avoiding bacon, this
is worth having a read through.

It's not the "death meat" that it's often thought of as being,
especially when consumed in moderation...(if that's even
possible, I guess... ;)...it IS bacon after all!).

And granted, I think you do have to take into consideration
the source of the meat...for example, commercially-raised
pork vs organically-raised pork.

Judge for yourself...check out the article here...

I'd be very curious to hear your thoughts on this topic, too!
