What Your Doctor Won't tell you about Saturated Fat ? 

Depends on what you replace it with. If you replace it with sugar, probably a bad idea.

Yes. There is a lot of information given very quickly and it is difficult to absorb it all, so like you, I need to play stuff over. It would be good not to have the background noise. This is a lot of great information.

Me too ... I had to: (1) Turn on CC. (2) Set play speed to 0.75

Seed oils are heart healthy

@@titanattackbee1985 just the opposite. Seed oils are highly inflammatory, easily oxidized (rancid) and processed at high heat and with chemicals like hexane, resulting in an oil that is very toxic to us and damaging to our mitochondria. Probably play a big part in hyperinsulinemia, too.

@@Ge1Ri4 unhydronated seed oils have the best long term outcomes

seed oils even outpreform olive oil sometimes

@@titanattackbee1985 You might need some extraordinary evidence if you want to convince people that these unnatural seed oils could be healthy.

Some may tolerate it a little better, genetic mutations, some n3 can prevent plaque ruptures, but they still have arteries narrowed and weak cardio function at higher age. Onset of erectile dysfunction is a good early indicator. Switch to clean plant diet and the dysfunction reverses soon... Healthy coconut saturated fat is also a myth. There are videos out representing the balance of scientific evidence correctly. Only a low fat plant-based diet has been shown to significantly reverse heart disease.

I would suggest it's their diet. Basically if modern medicine tells you one thing you can be pretty sure to believe the opposite. I'd stick with the diet of your ancestors.

Very similar to my family. Everyone lived to late 90’s to low 100’s back in the day. Ate no processed foods with trans-fats because there weren’t any. Ate full fat dairy and lots of eggs and good quality meats. Cooked with butter, lard, and bacon grease. No heart disease.

Exactly. Saturated fat is actually the savior here, it's the least prone to oxidation. Basically, if heart disease is thought of as the big bad wolf, you want to build your body of mainly bricks, a little straw, and some sticks (mainly saturated, a little poly, and some mono fats).

@@JasonActualization THIS! Im sp frustrated because I have heard this before and the logic makes sense, our fat chains are made mostly of saturated. So wouldnt it makes sense to have plenty of natural wholefood sources of saturated fats? Yet this Doc over here doesnt really address this in his video.

Called statistics. Saying doctors or scientist don’t know what they are talking about is ignorant if they base it off clinical data (even more important in double blind clinical trials like statins had done). Don’t be ignorant and be better and stop using a small data set (your parents) to guide your medical decisions.

Remember you are the son of both, do your mom could have give you the genetics to resist high cholesterol diet but your father are in equal possibility to give you his genetics. Maybe the doctors don’t know anything but at least they will ask you to go get blood tests and if you are resistant like your mom, go ahead and eat whatever you want but if you are susceptible like your dad was, you better be careful.

@R C Thank you, hero. Yeah, because statistics have never ever been twisted or manipulated in order to support the agendas of the political, powerful, or greedy. But don’t let that stop you from lecturing folks who are doing just fine.

@@beuller7 because knives were never used to harm anyone, right ? Should we use our minds and be critical thinkers ? Hell no! let's get rid of them! And if you believe in stats, but think that several studies were frauded, in science we have something called peer review. Finally, if you still don't believe them, make your study yourself, it's not that hard. I would be happy to read it. Have a good day ✌️

@@wesley-m Uh, you sorta just made my point. Just as you make distinctions between between how knives can be used for good or for ill, the same can be done - and often is done - with statistics.

Start focusing on stearic acid found in grassfed butter and ghee and tallow. Avacado and olive oil have higher peroxide values. Coconut is okay if organic unrefined unfiltered coldpressed.

Cooking with fats that are liquid and room temperature is a mistake.

Very Good

I agree. I only go to a doctor to get lab tests done which I know how to read myself anyway. I don't need to sit there and have them go over them with me. I'm a nutritionist, and know that doctors don't know anything about how to stay healthy. All they know how to do is diagnose diseases (maybe - they're wrong often) and prescribe drugs.

Very true.... we need real fat. Or, one starves themselves in many ways.

Using animals as food is NOT “good for the environment”. In fact, it’s the worst thing for the environment out there. It’s terrible for the animals, the human body AND the environment. It’s a lose/lose/lose.

@@Julia-b9x You're very wrong. Holistic methods have been shown to actually restore vegetation; build topsoil; reduce erosive soil loss; reduce aerosolized carbon; replace the need for biocides as well as synthetic fertilizers; increase overall biomass; restore soil biota; reduce the costs of producing food; utilize land poorly adapted to other types of food production; increase overall food production; reduce the need for irrigation and reduce electrical grid strain; reduce air and water pollution; etc. This is much better than the destructive methods of conventional ranching and farming, including CAFOs, or organic methods alone. The science shows that organic can be very destructive when done in a conventional manner.

You can put out your own video explaining your expertise on saturated fats, dont forget the references in the notes on how you arrived at your conclusions.

References: humans have been eating saturated, mono unsaturated, and some polyunsaturated fats since the dawn of existence. Stop making nutrition so overcomplicated.

@@Zeus_1025 correct. We have got to learn the word moderation again. Every food in moderation with exercise the body should do well, save a genetic aberration.

Turns out the references were hidden by the cardiologist until his son found them and published the data. This has to be some sort of out of season April fools joke.

@@Zeus_1025 and those same people had a lifespan of 25-30 years too. You paleo people seem to always forget that part.

Pretty much everything what you buy in Cans, Bags, boxes, bottles ... or the fast food takeout counter. Very little that you buy on the perimeter of your supermarket.

Look how the food is produced. Processed foods are anything in a package. Take seed oils. They would not be possible to make without a chemical refinery and are far from what natural seed oils are like.

@@gregkenning9238 canned foods can be processed or unprocessed. It’s not the canning of food that makes it processed. If you’re buying a can of organic whole kidney beans you’re fine. A can of Hormel chili however, is a different thing. Reading labels is crucial.

A simple. short reply: eat what your great grand parents ate... Another one: stay away from anything with an ingredients list longer than 5 items... Or: stay away from anything that contains MSG, items ending on -ose, -ide, -ame, that doesn't contain words like modified, hardened, hydrogenated, etc. From literature: A practical way to identify an ultra-processed product is to check to see if its list of ingredients contains at least one item characteristic of the NOVA ultra-processed food group, which is to say, either food substances never or rarely used in kitchens (such as high-fructose corn syrup, hydrogenated or interesterified oils, and hydrolysed proteins), or classes of additives designed to make the final product palatable or more appealing (such as flavours, flavour enhancers, colours, emulsifiers, emulsifying salts, sweeteners, thickeners, and anti-foaming, bulking, carbonating, foaming, gelling and glazing agents).

Are you referring to APO B and APO A1? I'm so confused about that number and what it represents.

It goes to show that many of these fats and cholesterol are actually good nutrients when they're undamaged from oxidation.

So eating antioxidant-rich food is I assume a good idea and helps to keep the LDL from oxidizing?

Not sure what you mean by disaster. Mediterranean diet includes fats and carbs but everything is whole and unprocessed and it’s a healthy diet in my opinion. I think whole and unprocessed are the two words that count the most. I am confused about whether dietary saturated fats from dairy and meat are harmful though.

@@Lulu-kt6gr it oxidizes in the presence of glucose. Antioxident foods will help but if you have excessive fat and glucose it's kinda like using a garden hose on a house fire. Eating better fats (non vegetable oils) would be more like having a block house instead of wood. i'm guessing the disaster comment was to a comment that was deleted. The mediteranian diet is one of the best ones out there, if done properly. Olive oil it tremendously good for you. I drink it straight and cook with avacado oil.

Thank you. This "Butter is Back!" mentality has got to stop. I drastically limited all saturated fat some time ago to address mild arteriosclerosis, but have recently gone 100 percent whole food plant based since learning about the microbiome. "Fiber Fueled" for the win.

@@sectionalsofa I'm a big fan of "everything in moderation." I personally don't think we have to swear anything off 100%, but over-consuming almost anything is asking for trouble. Including butter and coconut oil 😂

@@sectionalsofa Good for me, as there is more butter left. What he has forgotten is, that butter isn´t butter. There is a huge difference if cows eat gras or if they have to eat soy beans and corn. Also they should have enough time under the sky and in the sun, as we humans also should....

Good luck. The balance of scientific evidence doesnt support such hopes for bad habit confirmation. There is not really a major difference of "good" LDL particles sizes. Dr Greger has a detailed video on that.

You are a cholesterol hyperabsorber if LDL and HDL are both very high. See a real lipidologist.

@@xcast1 There is a major difference betweel healthy cholesterol and oxidized cholesterol.

@@letsdrive899 greger is a charlatan.

Sounds like your Doctor is a cholesterol denier(aka conspiracy theorist). I would 100% find a new one. LDL particle size IS NOT a relevant factor, it's a distraction that gets pushed a TON on social media and is going to cost you your health. HDL being high is also not gonna do anything to counteract LDL. Get your ApoB checked if you want a useful metric. If not, LDL by itself still has an incredibly strong correlation with atherosclerotic risk. Particle size tests are just free money for them and mean nothing.

Curious as to how the sat. fat differs between, say, grass-fed and grain-fed beef. This video seems to make clear that each type of sat. fat is a specific chemical indicated by its chemical structure. Do grass- and grain-fed beef have different types of sat. fat in this sense?

Maybe the antioxidants from the grass create a healthier meat. Surely eating grain laden with pesticides can’t be a good thing.

@@marting.9613 I find it remarkable that this hasn't been resolved. My guess is that most studies are done with the aim of proving one thing or the other for reasons that have nothing to do with truth. Sometimes a company will commission a study (like Coca-cola) and if the results go the other way, they just bury them. I still don't know how much to trust the current analysis.

It’s dam confusing

Trans fats are actually saturated fats. Saturated fats are solid at room temperature. They start as unsaturated fats, and are turned into saturated fats by hydrogenating them. They are the worst kind of fats, and have the worst health outcomes. I used to believe omega 6 fats were inflammatory. There's been dozens of randomized controlled trials testing that, and every one has shown that inflammation actually goes down or stays neutral. Saturated fats, if they exceed 10% of calories, result in a sharp increase in cardiovascular disease. When replaced with unsaturated fats, all kinds, or whole plants, CVD goes down sharply. When replaced with refined carbs, it stays about the same.

@@jeffreyjohnson7359 Transfats are monounsaturated fats with the carbon-carbon double bond in the trans configuration. Saturated fats have only single bonds along the main carbon chain and do not have a trans variant. Watch some videos on organic chemistry so you get a better understanding.

@@henrytang2203 You are correct! Thanks for the correction.

@Jeffrey Johnson All good. There's a lot of misinfo about nutrition out there, definitely helps to dive into the science behind it.

@@henrytang2203 It doesn't change the evidence about sat fats though. CVD risk jumps up at around 8-10% of total calories, then levels off at about 12%, and stays higher. Below that threshold, it's fine. Trans fats are worse, I think the threshold for risk is about 1% of calories. And refined carbs are about the same. I would call refined carbs a much bigger problem, because they make up about 45-50% of the American diet, sat fats about 10%.

Hi, I'm not a doctor, but I have invested a lot of time and learned a few things. Do not believe in pills, but in healthy food. I hope that you have the money for good for plus good supplements and that you can cook, or are willing to learn. Some general remarks first. 1) If possible, eat like your great grand parents did, so NOT take packaged food (that is as bad as junk food or fast food). Eggs are a great source of nutrients, cooked soft is the best option. 2. Reduce over time your intake of sugar refined carbs. (No more sodas, fruit juices, says, cookies, ice cream, pasta, even bread is not the healthy thing that I learned it was.) 3) Know that vegetable oils, AKA seed oils, AKA poly unsaturated fats and margerines are NOT healthy, they are your enemy. 4) Smoking and drinking alcohol are NOT healthy, but that's nothing new. 5) Good sleep! Melatonin is very good for your mitochondria.. Good vitamins are: * vitamin C, say a gram per day (you can buy the cheapest ascorbic acid, flavonoids etc are nice, but can be missed) * Vitamin D3, AT LEAST 4000 IU per day If you take more (I do 10.000 IU per day), combine it with Vitamin K2!!! (Find out yourself why) * Vitamin E: best from seeds like sunflower, pumpkin, hemp. AVOID cheap vitamin E. There are, I think, 6 forms that are important, and NOT ONLY alpha tocopherol * Vitamin A you can get from liver sausage.. The mitochondria need many different * B vitamins. If you eat meat you probably have enough vit B12. The other B vitamins are in Nutritional Yeast. Important minerals; magnesium magnesium MAGNESIUM! No oxide, hydroxide, carbonate.. Better not citrate, but bisglycinate or the more expensive forms. Iron like in red meat. Copper is important, best taken as Zink/Copper 20 mg / 2 mg. If you are on statins: discuss necessity. If you take them, use good amounts of CoQ10!!! Omega 3, best from fatty fish salmon (caught, not cultivated), herring, mackerel. Or codliveroil.. You'll have to do your own research.. It takes time, but you learn who to trust and make searches on subjects, you can do that on Google and you can do it here. Learn the key words related to the subjects that are important to you. And try to think logical.. Example: What is important for energy? All the small energy plants that every cell has. If your search for "cell energy", you find ATP that is made from ADP in the "MITOCHONDRIA". What do they need? Etc etc Okay, if you reply, have questions, perhaps we can go further.. 🎶🙏🏻

@@kvinayagamoorthy Polyunsaturated fats are atrocious for your health and should be limited. I eat 8-10x as much saturated as I do polyunsaturated fat.

Consuming more polyunsaturated fat than that found in nature will slowly oxidize your body and cause chronic disease.
