Cheese, like this Brie de Meaux, is high in saturated fats, and is a popular food in<unk>  cuisine. The<unk>  is an apparently paradoxical epidemiological observation that<unk>  people have a relatively low incidence of coronary heart disease (CHD), while having a diet relatively rich in saturated fats, in apparent contradiction to the widely held belief that the high consumption of such fats is a risk factor for CHD. The paradox is that if the thesis linking saturated fats to CHD is valid, the<unk>  ought to have a higher rate of CHD than comparable countries where the per capita consumption of such fats is lower. It has also been suggested that the<unk>  is an illusion, created in part by differences in the way that<unk>  authorities collect health statistics, as compared to other countries, and in part by the long-term effects, in the coronary health of<unk>  citizens, of changes in dietary patterns which were adopted years earlier.
