Detailed explanation-1: -Saturated fats raise the total blood cholesterol by raising the harmful LDL (low-density lipoprotein), but they also raise beneficial HDL (high-density lipoprotein) in comparison to carbohydrates, although researchers dispute how helpful this increase is.

Detailed explanation-2: -Butter contains a good amount of saturated fat, which is a type of fat found in foods including meat and dairy products. In fact, about 63% of the fat in butter is saturated fat, while monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fat make up 26% and 4% of the total fat content, respectively ( 1 ).

Detailed explanation-3: -There is no such thing as a completely saturated or a completely unsaturated fat; every fat is a combination of both saturated and unsaturated fatty acids. Butter, beef suet, and tallow are about 50% saturated, but all other animal fats are more unsaturated than they are saturated.
