When I look at my grandmother's recipes and how my grandparents cooked, it's filled with large doses of butter, saturated fatty acids, beer/wine, cold cuts, eggs, etc.
And yet they never had any heart problems/obesity
Can you explain it to me?

Also just less food in general. Most people didn't have big feasts. They had lots of kids to feed and very little wealth to do it with. When the family had porkchop night, you got ONE porkchop. And if you didn't like a meal, guess what? You either forced yourself to eat it or went hungry that night. And much of the food back then was really, really bad. Think seafood aspic level bad.

Learning how to cook, and avoiding processed food will give you a healthier live anyway. You do not have to follow any trends. Once you are no longer addicted to sugar/fat/salt overfilled processed food, your body will tell you what you need. And everybody needs a different diet.

Due to some grand(((conspiracy))) or just an accident of modern agriculture all of our food is less nutritious. I don't mean we eat less nutritious foods, I mean the way we fertilize, feed, breed, and engineer our food prioritizes macronutrient and neglects micronutrients. As a result, not only do you crave more food to try and make up for the deficit, but you are also less able to make use of those calories. Also stuff like sugar, activity level, and the fact that saturated fats aren't actually bad for you plays a role, but seriously half the people in the developed world are magnesium deficent and your body uses it for pretty much everything.

My grandparents ate similarly. My grandma was obese with heart problems and my grandpa had a ruined colon. I'd say yours had other factors in their life, or they had good genes+luck
