CARBOHYDRATES & FATTY ACIDS by Professor Fink 

You're a real one Professor Fink. Most of this knowledge is gate kept by the universities which is a disservice to mankind. You on the other hand are making a service to mankind, salute!

Professor Fink, you are the best teacher I ever see. Your lecture is very easy to understand even my English is not very good. I really love your lessons.

sir eventhough you uploaded this video 7 years ago ,you have no idea how much it still helps us (students from developing countries) on our learning process and to get a good level of education which can potentially make us a competitive student in the world. You are a true blessing from God,Thankyou very much❤❤❤❤

A truly incredible way to both enhance the academic English and refresh different topics

I am addicted to your lectures! You are amazing! I wish my professor would teach at least a quarter of the way you teach.

As someone who is using these lectures as preparation for my MCAT studying next summer I extremely appreciate your "integration" of multiple fields of discipline. This incorporation of many past classes makes my studying much more efficient! Thanks again for posting these!

I like it when u claps all of the sudden time to time. It wakes me up lmao

This lecture was incredibly well organized and helpful!

Understanding the saturated, mono unsaturated and poly unsaturated feels amazing to know, thank you

Your lectures are electrifying and enlightening. Thanks very much

I don't know how to thank you for your dedication and your way to make this hard and complicated subject, understandable and digestible for us. you are the best.

Im not skippingbthe ads, it my lil way of shwing how i support him. Please upload more videos.

I watched this after studying your biological chemistry videos; it's such a great way to review the important points. Thank you for these wonderful lectures.

Back to your lectures after nursing school!! 💯

one of the best professor in youtube!

Sir, you are a fantastic teacher 🙏🏻😎 , it’s a wonderful experience really after listening your lecture. Thank you very much, may the divine nature bless you always. Thank you again 😊

You should avoid these fats." Source: www.hopkinsmedicine.org/healthlibrary/conditions/cardiovascular_diseases/components_of_food_85,P00204/

Thank you from a Boise state student! I am taking an online anatomy course and I really enjoy watching your lectures!!

This is wonderful and helpful professor fink i wish we had multi mega professors like you, its just in you that no one can fake. Five star general salute.

You are too much better than nutrition teacher which she always ignored biology and physiology side of the material thanks professor

so much inspired of you sir

Very helpful, thank you! My professor simply reads from his powerpoints rather than explain anything. Thank you for posting this.

This is so good! Thank you Dr. Fink

Not so sure about that cholesterol and saturated fat causing heart disease thing... but other than that very interesting and useful information! Thank you!

you r my reference .God bless you

Thank you sir. Thanks a lot. Your lecture is very easy to understand.

you saved my biochemistry test! thank you from me and all of the emergency medicine students from Ben Gurion university Israel!

cool lecture!!

Thanks a lot my dear Fink sir, providing the classes in the you tube they are very much useful.

One essential enquiry about the life is about the nature of its molecules and its behavioural diversification in its functionalities. For example, the Hexose Sugar D-(+)-Glucose is used by cells of our body to generate energy while its other stereo or functional isomers like D-(-)-Glucose L- Glucose or Fructose or Galactose are rejected by the body for the same things, this shows about the high specificity and selectivity of life processes taking place at molecular levels. Another contrasting feature is that the master of entire cellular programming, i.e the DNA and its baby child RNA not only reject D-Glucose but have adopted altogether a new Monosaccharides i.e Deoxyribose and Ribose sugar.. the bigger irony is even the distinct Pentose sugar between DNA and RNA, even though DNA itself synthesises RNA 🤔😎 My assumption is that the distinction in these molecular features could be happened essentially to avoid molecular chaos within the life processes. For example, let’s think what will happen if the master code of life processes ie the DNA and RNA use the same sugar, ie if DNA and RNA both use Ribose or both uses deoxyribose? Clearly, there will be a great chaos within the DNA and RNA, probably both will become indistinguishable at micro level or may fight with each other to establish their superiority over other. If molecules compete with each other to impose their superiority then ultimately the life processes will be compromised, this will probably cause early death of cells and hence the living beings. Now, think why do cells use D-(+)-Glucose than Ribose or Deoxyribose? Perhaps it could be because to avoid the molecular conflicts. If cell will use Deoxyribose or Ribose, it could be a devastating thing for their own existence as clever enzymes can pull them out from their chain/polynucleotide to produce energy in cellular oxidation. Ultimately, any such thing will end the superiority of DNA and will destabilise DNA or RNA or may rig its molecular chain to a great extent. This will be a life threatening events for the cell itself. This shows, the entire molecular designs of life processes are way more intelligent than our intelligent brain. Simply, life is intelligent or life is an intelligent phenomenon. It’s all about intelligence that we are being alive while non living are non motile and probably less intelligent than us.. our brain hardly reflects the 0.001% intelligence which is encoded in our DNA. it’s all about an enquiry of an intelligent mind.

It would be awesome if you did an updated nutrition lecture because I've noticed that some comments are a bit dated in comparison to the current literature on polyunsaturated and saturated fats. Very helpful videos though, thanks for making them available. I just want to make sure I'm studying accurate materials for my classes in 2024.

Professor, you believe that for eating less calories one has to consume polyunsaturated fats. To my, last 10-yr. knowledge, consuming polyunsaturated fats is dangerous, as they produce a lot of free radicals due to their high-level rancidity, because they are carcinogenic when heated, and because of the high omega-6 content in MOST of them causing inflammatory diseases. Your recommendation on fats in that lecture was the greatest Ancel Keys deadly mistake. Why not eating healthy saturated fats in SMALL daily portions, e.g., one-two spoons a day rather than 3-4 or more of polyunsaturated, among which are a number of highly toxic oils like Canola, Soy, Vegetable, and Corn -- the widely advertised and commonly used pro-inflammatory and carcinogenic oils. This "dogma" literally killed millions of Americans believing their physician "pseudo" knowledge. Monounsaturated fatty acids (like in olive oil) do not provide body with essential (not produced by the body) polyunsaturated omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids in a healthy ratio. Therefore, among polyunsaturated ones only flaxseed oil and hemp oil can be recommended to be used in their raw unheated state (not for cooking). Vegetarian, though, as well as non- can use coconut oil as their healthy saturated fat choice of cooking.

Great job

These students are so lucky they got diamond like professor 😢😢😢we got iron like professors

i like how you integrated kashrus as a factor for coffee creamer. very considerate!

Thank you for making your lectures publicly available. I just would like to add that splenda has since been found to have adverse effects such as raising blood sugar levels and causing changes to the intestinal flora, which can lead to allergies and immune suppression. I'd go with your own advice to limit the amount of sugary/rich foods rather than going for generally understudied food substitutes. Thanks!

Oh my goodness thank you so much for uploading these! This is so useful! Also I prefer this than reading from my dull textbook.

“I recommend you going to nursing school then watching this”, lol. I’ve been an RN for a few years & love these videos, many BSNs breeze right over these very important concepts. I would like to take one issue with what you said however, and I believe the root of America’s health crisis; I do not believe calories in saturated fats cause heart disease I believe (cholesterol&) inflammation of the vessels causes heart disease which is caused by frequent/overconsumption of carbohydrates and sugars! It seems every patient I treat with heart disease also has type two diabetes. Those patients livers are synthesizing high amounts of cholesterol from sugars. If our population it only ate Meats 🥩🍳🥓🍗🍔🥗🧀🥬🥒🌶🥦( aka saturated fats ) & vegetables many of our health conditions would go away including heart attack, stroke and cancer. Calories mean almost nothing when it comes to weight aka gaining & inflaming. That’s why the basic advice isn’t working when it comes to Americans being so sick.

Thank you for sharing.

Thank you from hong kong

This is an amazing lecture and Professor Fink's videos are wonderful in general, but the thing about saturated fats being bad for you is definitely outdated.

I'm rewatching this series 5yrs later and it is still an excellent source of information. I'd challenge some of the dietary advice that labels carbs and oils as superior to natural animal foods. There's a reason animal fat tastes good to us and there is a reason that animal foods are full of cholesterol as are we. It is because we've been thriving on animal proteins and fats for our entire evolution as sapiens 🥩💪🤙

Thank you

Someone gasping at around 30:00 , took my life

Appreciate the content but needs an update with the dietary content. Specifically now that we know that all saturated fats are not as detrimental as they were thought to be.

You are amazing............Thank you very much

What diet do you eat MR fink ? What does a typical breakfast snack lunch and dinner look like professor?

it's amazing 👏 ❤Sir

super video excellen

i enjoyed the lecture, but do you still stand by thoughts on saturated fats, even with the new research about cholesterol. do vegetarians have heart attacks, or coronary artery disease. insulin is the culprit, what spikes insulin?

are amounts of glycogen of the body not statistically counting for the compositions?

Professor, you state in this lecture that saturated fats contain more energy than unsaturated fats, i.e., are more caloric. Yet, 100 grams of olive oil, for example, is higher in calories than 100 grams of butter. What am I missing?

I like how you define the words clearly. I've taken biology and chemistry in high school. I took some science as well in middle school. Very good work! You really care about your students wanting to learn and understand the material.

For what kind of study are these lessons?

if splenda is 600 times sweeter, and we can't digest it, does that mean if someone ate nothing but splenda they could pass their stool off as brownines?

But people ate meat, butter and other animal products before and didn't have heart attacks and strokes - why is this problem now?

Sir! Which Book 📖 You Follow 🤔 please Mention. 🙏

The consumption of artificial sweetener like sucralose, although zero in calorie, has been reported to contribute to hinder fat loss by making our body think something sweet is coming to the bloodstream and stimulationg pancrease to secrete more insulin. What's your take on this proffesor?

The carbon on the left side isn’t happy. There’s only 6 electrons on its’ outer shell. 😫

Won't the halogen attached to sucrose affect human health negatively sir? Is there any study being undertaken?

U say that coconut oil is bad???/??At body temperature coconut oil melts palmitic acid is the only bad saturated fat as far as i am aware

Why is it not complete? Its so depressing. To have something so interesting and elaborative and lost it before it's over. The two series earlier

Hello dr. Is this course gived to high school level or for what level, medicine?

When someone especially in bodybuilding industry says he or she has 8 percent body fat, what does that mean sir?

Where can I get all of the handouts?

Dear Professor Fink: Time:15:39 Due to the inability of the human enzyme invertase to hydrolysis the sugar substitute "Sucralose", can we assume, that the receptors sites for the hydrolysis of the sucrose is at one or more of the substitute sites.

Professor ,I have a huge crush on you, hope someday I could visit you in person, and get a autograph from you . Wish you could upload more videos about human health,nutrition.

can splenda be used by diabetics?

Thank you
