Dr. Chris A Knobbe - Omega 6 Apocalypse: Do Seed Oils Cause Obesity & Chronic Disease 

This presentation is explosive! Overdue! Thank you, God for finally stepping in and gifting us this doctor. A message of TRUTH and hope. This doctor truly living up to his profession’s true purpose of saving lives. Live long and prosper, Dr Knobbe🙏🏽🙂❤

Wow, looks like sugar is much less responsible than the seed oils! Great graphs!

...It all began when Dr. Knobbe started getting gray hair at the tender age of 14 years old. This was the beginning of his inquiry into asking, “Was this happening because of a genetic predisposition, or was it something else that he was doing to cause his hair to turn white at such a young age?” When Chris turned 19, he grew tired of people mentioning he had so many gray hairs for such a young man. So, coloring his hair stopped the comments. As the years passed, he then found himself dealing with severe arthritis at the age of 33. As a Christian, he knew that God didn’t make mistakes. There must be something that he was doing incorrectly to cause these ‘age-related’ occurrences from happening to him. This brought him to realize that he needed to research how diet influences chronic diseases. He used himself as the guinea pig to change his diet and lifestyle over to an Ancestrally based existence and found his arthritis mostly disappeared within a few days of removing refined grains, seed oils, and processed food.... After 41 years of ongoing hair-coloring appointments, Dr. Knobbe decided when he turned 61 this past December, it was time to live as God designed him to be…allowing his true color to be exposed and perhaps to inspire others to not worry about what other people think, or what social media deems as being a sign of youth and vitality.

It's good to see Dr. Knobbe back on the speaking circuit.

This video has had millions of views, they keep on changing it.

Technically sugar use may be dropping but we all know that starches and other processed carbohydrates turn in to glucose in your body.

Love the hair color! What a man!

Well done dr. Knobbe. And good for you to have dropped the hair color...

I've stopped eating peanut butter now because of the unhealthy oils...

Please include high-fructose introduction in 1970s.

I dont eat carbs , seed oils , i eat nothing non organic. My meat is grass fed and finished my eggs are pasturaised organic. I was able to lose 93 lbs and i feel fabulous and im 50 and i have no perscribed medicines.

The Canadian food guide for decades said drink milk and eat wheat. Both products in great supply in Canada. When they changed the food guide recently the Propaganda Media had to report it but did so gently. I haven't looked at the new guide. I just found out about the evils of seed oils last year. I follow Dr Fung and Gary Haubes.

Does the category sugar also take into account the more prevalent form of HFCS? Robert Lustig attributes the fatty liver pandemic due to heavy consumption of beverages sweetened with HFCS.

Do deceasing sugar volumes include the in rease if fructose consumption.

Thank you excellent presentation!

Sadly in the U.S. we have to put together correlation after correlation, give talks about it, before "science" will conduct the studies that will prove those correlation. Happens all the time.

In my experience he is correct on vegetable/seed oils. I never eat the dangerous oils and avoid completely any product that has them on their label. I have managed to keep my weight in the 160-165# range over the past 4.5 years - since I started keto. However, when I indulge in some rye bread or baked potatoes I begin to creep up to 170# and don't lose it until I stop eating these heavy carbs.

The main problem is quantity and frequency of oil rich in omega 6. And not respect the proportion with omega 3. Another is the use of one wrong oil to fry food.

Definitely a different hypothesis on diabetes. Would love to see a debate with this fellow and dr Lustig or dr Bickman. Latter two clearly acknowledge Omega 6 inflammatory response with seed oils and contribution to metabolic disease but if I have heard them correctly their stressing eating too much refined carbs too often as main contributor to type 2 diabetes explosion.

Me gustaría saber si las enfermedades mentales y las tendencias homos ex uales tambien estan ligadas a estos aceites

Just for fun I am going to correlate automobile sales - or automobile usage/ownership, whatever- with Obesity and Diabetes in industrialized countries. My point is that possibly (?) the delivery mechanisms for modern disease are arguably factors other than diet, such as air pollution for example, and/or stress levels. But thank you Dr Knobbe, for staying on point in your well-organised lectures. 🙏 BTW, although you are way too young for me - only 61, a mere boy!- i think you are still rocking it with your white hair. 👨‍🦳

This is one of my all-time-favorite videos on health, and I take my health guidelines from Dr. Knobbe's book = Ancestral Dietary Strategy to Prevent and Treat Macular Degeneration. Strangely what is good for your eyes is good for the rest of your body. Dr. Knobbe has done the research for us and come up with dietary guidelines. Although we each may have to tweak the guidelines according to our health condition. If you have a disease like Parkinson's or irritable bowel syndrome, etc., there is more to know.

i wonder if the "sugar" consumption figures include high fructose corn syrup,. That could change everything,. By the way, the main thing I see in the old B&W film is PEOPLE WALKING.

I'm ok with all this but don't think I have seen too many, if any, drops on sugar consumption as is shown here...

think its a combination of oxidized omega6 polyunsaturated veg oil lipids and high levels of blood sugar along with insulin resistance that causes atherosclerosis...think heart disease/plaque was flat in late 1800s and early 1900s and skyrocketed in correlation with seed oil consumption just like obesity cancer and diabetes

What effect does age have on the charts? We are living longer than we did in 1920 so one would expect an increase in BMI. Please note: these are questions not critisisms. How about the effects of smoking ? That has a significant effect on eating and cardio and is very common in Asia as opposed to North America Lastly, what can be done to eliminate omega 6 from adepoise tissue? ?

I thought it was the genetically modified wheat ....

Yes, seed oils are to blame. But if we did a study based on the number of new chemicals going into processed foods over the last 40 years we would all agree it's not just seed oils! We are consuming thousands of new chemicals we never consumed before.

Gotta consider the onslaught of vakcines as a factor as well.

Dr.... what is the alternative to Vegetable oils.. We south Indians use vegetable oil for daily cooking...

Interesting but more to this then presented. What needs to be incl is effect of the ‘bliss factor’ (precise combo of sugar, fat and salt) in processed food. Also key role of many chemicals incl pharma drugs and plastics as endocrine disrupters thru environment > food systems > on the human body. Edit: do see oils incl olive oil? Intake for red meat and animal proteins in the US esp needs to also be extended incl cancer levels.

In India they tout Mustard Seed Oil as a healthy cooking oil option... I wonder how healthy or unhealthy it really is...

Organic, cold expeller pressed, high oleic sunflower oil is a totally different animal. It has very low amounts of omega 6 oil in it. Omega 6 oil by the way is an essential oil for the body. Typical grain oils just have way too much of it. Compliment this oil with plenty of anti-oxidant / anti-inflammatory foods and you are good to go.

is olive oil ok?

It's so easy, we are basically an animal, so we are made of animal fat, so why eat oil, do lions eat vegitable oil ?

What about starflower oil and its high GLA content?

Is olive oil bad as well?

Dr Ray Peat has been saying this for decades.

What about nuts ? They have planty of oil ...

👍👍👍👍👍

I dont drink cow milk anymore, it messes with my head. So i try to buy Soy, Oat, Rice, etc etc. I challenge you to find ONE of those that DOESNT contain seed oils. >:( WTF

Dr. Knobbe really lays this awful foods in a gloves off manner ...

3:24, so can anyone prove location of that oil refinery? looks like BS

Speaks too fast, I can't follow him, goes over my head. I'm not super smart like most in the audience probably are.

Tons of correlations and no trials. Even n=1. Also. life style effects are not even mentioned. This is low quality evidence. Take a human, a sick human, exclude veg oils and show how he becomes healthy without changing anything else then i would believe this idea a bit more. While it all looks tempting i am still very skeptical.

Never blame sugar which is all natural, for what oils did.

vegetable oils are healthy.

Cherry picking epidemiological discussion. Prime example: What are we NOT seeing in the lifestyle video of historic NYC? a: Automobiles (and concommitant initiation of - Sedentary Modern Lifestyle. Not to mention tailpipe exhaust/brake pad particles/toxic stew) How do these factors relate to sugar or fat consumption? They don’t. How do they relate to obesity and heart disease? I’ll let you decide. Where are radios, TV’s, electric/gas labor saving devices and Computers on his graphs? All missing and highly pertinent data to physical and mental health that ramped up within same time period.

Another “Doctor” talk supported by the meat industry.

I cannot stand this video. How is this dude saying "oh, you cannot consume vegetable oils". I am sorry, but what is wrong with properly processed sunflower oil? If I'm buying sunflower seeds and pressing it at my home. What is wrong with that? Why sunflower oil became an evil? This dude doesn't have right to speak.

3:03 this is baton rouge oil refinery. Don't listen to this Mofo.,
