The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition reported a very large meta-study a few months ago an the effect of saturated fats on cardiovascular disease (CVD), coronary heart disease (CHD), and stroke..  Dr. Andrew Weill brought it to our attention here. 

Hamburger and all other meat are laden with saturated fats.  But, quoting the original AJCNl article: "During 5–23 years of follow-up of 347,747 subjects, 11,006 developed CHD or stroke. Intake of saturated fat was not associated with an increased risk of CHD, stroke, or CVD."

As Weill points out, High Glycemic Index carbs are the real danger.  So eat your holiday burger with a healthy smile.  Just don't slap it between two deadly carbohydrate-loaded buns...
