Leave the fat when cooking, trim it after cooking. Removing the fat before cooking and not removing it after are equal bad calls.
Don't get me wrong, fat is delicious, but as you age the heart damage is not worth it.
Fat is not bad for your heart. Cholesterol repairs your arteries and veins.
Glucose/sugar damages them. The buildups occur because people keep damaging their arteries and veins, and they keep getting repaired.
In the past, they saw this cholesterol build up, so they assumed the fat was the problem. But it's turned out it's like a WWE match, where only the 2nd guy gets caught/blamed.

But in moderation.
Wild turkey is delicious and lean but that blob you buy in a grocery is terrible for you. Same with brisket, as cooking with lots of fat makes it taste better but eating ALL that fat after cooking is not good.

I can buy that. Problem is sugar is not always where you think it is. I think the USA was 3% diabetic in the 1940's and more like 70% now. Fake sweeteners (like the "sugars" in processed foods) and added sugar are big culprits. The other hidden sugars carbs and starches are dangerous too. I love real Southern whipped potatoes but they are terrible for your health.
