Yes, that is correct, tyciol. You are better off having fats in your tissue from healthier sources from the diet, than the ones your body makes. Typical saturated fats tend to decrease membrane fluidity, thereby, decreasing nutrient transport and insulin sensitivity. The only exception is the MCT oils, which are saturated, but actually increase fat metabolism and insulin sensitivity.

Matthew 7:20
And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.
