a lot of people will watch this and be like well what the hell like I was told seed oils are more or less foundationally responsible for our obesity epidemic and our Health crisis in America and the rest of the world what the hell's going on this is not seed oils what is it guys this is my big soap box from now until I don't know when bro until everyone for the most part people change their minds we already know what's bad for us it is not a mystery it has not been a mystery since the 1970 is the junk food that's doing you in people are looking for that one killer bro it's that family siiz bag of Doritos you bought for yourself for the fourth time this week that's the killer folks it's not some kind of grand plot or conspiracy there's the elephant in the room and a big ass elephant cuz he's been eating too much junk food just like you [Music] pimp hey folks Dr Mike here for RP strength and Seed oils are good for you that's right and we should be feeding them to babies no Scott I can do better I Can Do Better expecting mother she's like in one of those cryo Vats and you see all kinds of tubes in her shit and like her growing belly pooch baby container and and the scientists are like we have re-engineered a human to make it made mostly of seed oils nah that doesn't right Scott why all evil scientists Germanic I mean yeah yeah we know all right anyway what a crazy way to start a video all dumb jokes aside what the hell am I talking about with ceds I thought they were bad for you deep dive 3 two 1 depth first what are seed oils seed oils are vegetable oils extracted from the seeds of plants H okay that wasn't so fun lots of common examples including soybean oil canola oil which is one of my favorite canola oil is made from a thing called rape seed that's actually a thing that's quite strange to say sunflower oil corn oil cotton seed oil grape seed oil which is a common oil to dilute steroids into before you inject them no joke and uh seed oils are typically rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids pfas as they are uh known particularly omega-6 fatty acids there are Omega sixs there are Omega-3s in modern societies Omega sixes tend to be way too high and Omega 3 is not high enough you need way more Omega sixes than threes but if it's supposed to be a ratio of like 4:1 but it's really like 20 to1 not ideal things can happen so ceds do have a lot of omega-6s we'll talk about later how that's maybe not ideal but they are very commonly used because they are uh affordable they're very cheap to make which is great makes food affordable for lots of people they have a very long shelf life which is awesome because then you don't get poisoned at the store and they have very high smoke points which means that you can cook foods in them without the oil blowing up on you which is really important in a variety of Industries we'll talk about in just a bit and so what are folks concerned with when they talk about seed oils I'm going to go through a bunch of different things to really try to completely envelop this topic as much as possible and we're going to do a really cool thing we're going to Steelman the position of the anti seed oil side and they have some damn good points but then we are going to Red Team the position to see like well how far do these points really go and after we steal man and Red Team a whole bunch we're gonna get to some truth somewhere in the middle that probably says that you know seed oils can have their place in an overall healthy balanced diet as long as you don't do anything stupid which after this lecture will be quite obvious for you did I see lecture I think I'm still a professor Scott what the hell's wrong with me not anymore disgraced Professor disgraced by the academy shunned shun is a good one I'm actually not allowed to step foot on a college campus anymore by my own choice yes once you become corporate why would you settle for college what do I have to learn I already know everything what all right a lot of folks are concerned with the first category of General intake and disease risk the Steelman of this is compelling a lot of omega-6s in excessive amounts tend to be pro-inflammatory and chronic systemic inflammation has been linked and correlational analyses and some decent causitive inference as well probably causes some of this stuff diseases like cancer cardiovascular disease metabolic syndrome now remember cardiovascular diseases like 10 diseases all of which kill uh it includes stroke and heart attack in there um and metabolic syndrome includes obesity diabetes and all of cardiovascular disease more or less and so these are like not just three diseases cancer Al includes all cancers and so this is kind of a big deal and uh that's that's no good that's no good and there's observational data to confirm this that populations with lower seed oil consumption show lower incidences of these diseases for example folks eating the Mediterranean diet um they do more olive oil which is not a seed oil less seed oil and they tend to have a good time plus they do a lot of that Italian shit it's Scot uh what do you think is so look at to me I'm a I tell you what to eat the onlyu I legitimately got 195% of my Italian Impressions from like pasta sauce commercials from the 990s does anyone get any other Italian Impressions other than like going to Italy Scott uh Olive Garden commercials when you hear your family okay yeah oh what you've got the problem with a family that commercial never saw the light of day confrontational Grandpa uh uh there's also an evolutionary inferential mismatch here I said this already but quick repetition is that typically we're used to consuming like a a 4:1 ratio of Omega sixes to Omega 3s and now it's like sometimes 20 to1 which is wacky and not like we're used to now that doesn't mean it's a bad thing because you know in evolution we typically like got way more jaw infections and snake bite than before it's not like a certain number of those you need to make you healthier actually the fewer the better it's that automatically going to be like oh this is better but certainly curious we can ask the question of like thises human physiology like really gel with this new ratio and it turns out the answer is probably not that great now that's all pretty compelling but there's a red team to this trying to make make a more critical analysis here are a few interesting ideas for you to consider in controlled studies and we have so many that they now can be analyzed in groups called a meta analysis where we look at all the studies done on a subject at the same time trying to see if we can get a trend going what's the big picture that emerges and they tend to indicate that omega-6s do not increase inflammation markers when balanced with adequate omega-3 intakes so omega-6s aren't this bad thing is just a thing that if balance with something um is awesome but if not balance with it can be uh not so great so if you pour gasoline onto yourself not nothing great happens but if you pour it instead into a uh a car gas tank great things happen you get to go places meet some people um you know uh take the old road trip to see your disgruntled uncle that your parents told you don't ever go see him man he's been to jail and you showed up anyway and you had a great time so what you didn't remember eight hours of it one night small small potatoes so basically if there's a balance between Omega sixes and 3es then there's not anything particularly wrong with even a whole bunch of Omega sixes as long as you get a bunch of Omega-3s and chronic diseases are impacted way more perhaps sort of almost exclusively by broader dietary and lifestyle factors which we will get to very very soon what those are it's not the seed oil consumption alone or even hardly the seed oil consumption it's lifestyle factors and the rest of your diet we'll talk about that in a sec there's also a dose dependency if you have a super high ratio of Omega 6es from seed oils and very low Omega-3s yeah like it's not ideal it's not crazy bad but it's not good but if the ratio is way more balanced closer to 4:1 it it might not pose any risks whatsoever so ceds being bad might just not be a thing let me put this into perspective for you something like cigarette smoking and alcohol has no counterbalance like that like as soon as you go over like two to three drinks on average per night it's like two to three drinks is not good for your health 4 to five is worse and all the way up and it's not like okay what if I have two to three drinks but like I scream at myself and in the mirror at night for an hour does that balance it like no there's no balancing there's not like oh I smoked a bunch of siggies today so I'm going to go on a run and that's going to balance it out like now the sigs are just independently bad for you whereas if you raise your intake of Omega-3s there's a big balancing effect and it turns out like okay seed oils aren't really the problem at least in this particular context it's just imbalancing problem and of course you know the whole Mediterranean people's live longer thing is a correlation versus causation thing um I mean a a lot of times when we say look you know we're eating all these seed oils and we're dying in America because we're so fat but it might not be the seed oils themselves it's just processed food consumption which really is junk food consumption and sedentary Lifestyles and when you co- very for those seed oils aren't the great killer anymore they're hardly even in the top 10 for what's doing a sin and if you balance out your Omega sixes they might not be in the top anything big big context however there is another concern very independent concern and a very real concern of cooking processes and reheating so the Steel Man of this is that there's an oxidation risk because when oils are heated and reheated and reheated they tend to oxidize and the byproducts they make can include aldah can include trans fats and these are like toxic carcinogenic aldhy are mutagenic which on the one hand sucks because then you could like wake up the next day with like a little teeny arm and a big arm Scott you know like but the big arms like kind of useless cuz it's too big but the little arm just gross and then there's like a point Zer all the way to Infinity 1% chance you could have a whole bunch of refried seed oils and wake up like I don't know Spider-Man or some shit like that Scott if you had to wake up with like one mutation that like gave you that just magical shit what would it be um how do I say this in polite company well you're not in polite company um Jackhammer Jackhammer it sounds dangerous for the woman well in your case the Chelsea underground SNM Club be men anyway what were we saying so Heating and reheating oils especially oils that have high smoke points that don't just blow up and are actually very good at being heated and reheated over and over and over is just not IDE and the more you do that to them the more kind of not such great stuff happens and the oxidation goes up the trans fats go up you get the lipid peroxides and all these things that are just absolutely not ideal and studies Show links pretty conclusive ones between frequent consumption of deep fried foods often using seed oils and cardiovascular disease and this is a real thing but there is a way to redteam it the context is Big here oxidation price primarily occurs at high temperatures and prolonged heating so if you use seed oils for moderate heat cooking or just to sprinkle into your food it minimizes these risk for example canola oil especially high quality canola oil tends to be incredibly awesome poofa uh profile very very many awesome health effects about it proven in clinical research to make your blood fats HDL LDL ratio better than most other oils and ranks right up there with olive oil oil and if you like drizzle it over your rice or whatever or you use it in normal heating situations you don't have a reheat deep fryer at home then actually like it's really good for your health so if you like nope it's a seed oil get out of my face it turns out like n that's actually totally fine you know it's totally fine it's like you know your friend Bill people think oh Bill's an asshole like no no he's just an asshole when he drinks or does weed or even ecstasy and acid don't ever get them on acid but when Bill sober for about from 10:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. on Thursdays he's so gentle and the man and you should hang out with him kind of like that so there's also a smoke point variation some seed oils many like refined sunflower oil have very high smoke points and uh that means they don't Decay as much as you reach closer to that smoke point and they're much safer for high heat cooking than butter or lard and why am I putting a fine point on those because a lot of people will say cedo's bad got it okay replace with what our ancestors used to eat whole food diets where we have healthy teeth and jaws and we can stand up straight and we'll just just stand up straight and just look him in the eye I say that's my awful Jordan Peterson impression Jordan you're the man I'm just shit and so they'll say we need to replace them with butter and lard but but it turns out that there are seed oils that even in reheat cooking just are better for your health in butter and lard and this is a big Point fellas it's the junk food that's doing you in it's the deep frying and the refrying and the 800 calories per what used to be a chicken breast but is now just tenderly breaded with Crispy juicy Scott do you do you with uh breaded chicken breasts oh dude they're my favorite they're so good right they can add like a little Flor but not too much bad on the macros just a little something something a little Salt Bay never hurt anybody uh and that's dope but you know what I'm saying most commercial kitchens when they get the breading they're putting everything into it and that chicken breast comes out with 80 grams of fat and 120 grams of carbs and 20 grams of protein you're like how the hell did that happen deep Fri that that's really the problem folks deep fried foods are not good for you now in moderation occasionally here and there with your friends on a weekend you feel me you go to the local Diner you order everything deep fried you're golden but like some people eat the shit daily bro and all the time that is no good and it's cool because uh commercial kitchens have caught on to this so a lot of them have industrial standards where they actually use antioxidative additives to minimize harmful byproducts even when they're refrying or food that's not something I would like bet my life on but like this is the thing that can improve it's not categorically off the table but yeah the take-home point is like don't throw the seed oil babies out with the deep frying bath water did I just accidentally imagine babies in in a deep fryer Scott sounds delicious well they breed ethically slaughtered babies of of course they're breaded would you eat an unbred baby what kind of what kind of animal are you yeah not appealing not appealing bread my babies next another point with the seed oil folks and it's a good point is that there are industrial processing systems that are applied to these Foods and a bunch of additives might get thrown in and maybe those are not so great for our health so the steel man is that there are toxic residues to these things hexane which I thought was like a gasoline and turns out it really is is used in the extraction process of seed oils it is a definitive neurotoxin and traces can be found in the final product posing potential health risks and of course high temperature processing of uh partially hydrogenated oils creates trans fats which are strongly linked to heart disease I remember a study back in the day where they fed a bunch of monkeys um I think no not Apes maybe Apes uh great apes Jesus is that even ethical they fed on like uh more or less like sort of Lifetime diets of either regular fats or trans fats let me tell you this the monkeys get in the trans fats their whole lives they didn't do so well they were highly underused highly overfat and had like every disease known to man that's metabolically linked uh by the middle of their lives so bad news Scott did I just describe the average overweight person in the United States yeah um it's a thing not great trans fats are not great and thankfully they're not around I would go so far as to say that even though maybe some of you guys follow me on my other channel which is just the m is rtel channel it's all about progress and politics and economics I'm typically very liberty-minded and typically almost always very liberty-minded but some things just so clear as day that like maybe some laws aren't that terrible and I would say the law sort of banning trans fat use in the United States in most places like I don't hate that law cuz trans fats are kind of poison you know and if they're easily replaceable which they are in many other respects it's not huge huge downsides there are downsides to Banning it it increases food prices reduces shelf life increases the risk of food born illness but uh trans fants are just straight up bad and so like you don't want a whole lot of them ideally you want zero and a lot of these industrial processing systems that are used to make these final shelf stable oils they actually like rip out a bunch of nutrients they degrade the nutritional value they're antioxidants in many oils like vitamin E which is like vitamin E to me is like a white woman thing that they put as an advertisement on like shampoos and skin shit Scott you you feel me you know you ever like um are trying to jerk off in a hotel shower and you're like don't know where to look and you just end up reading the label of like the the shampoo they have and you're like oh it's it's fortified with vitamin E I feel like a white girl already I just want to go on the record and this I've never done anything like that you've never read a label Before You Don't Know What vitamin E is you've never been to a hotel scottt no I figured out you don't shower correct ridiculous so yeah we need nutrients that's no good this is not great news but some better news for the red team there are many regulatory controls let me tell you something it's going to sound a little offensive I mean it with much love if you ever find yourself in the comments and someone says you know they ought to do something about XYZ there's a high probability you're not the first 10 millionth person to think about that and there are Regulatory Agencies I arguably inarguably far too many in the United States and for sure Europe that keep really close tabs and all the stuff that could be poisoning you and sometimes they miss here and there but they usually don't and they're usually extra extra safe so it turns out they thought through this hexane problem like a really really really long time ago and hexane residue is insanely tightly regulated like people check on how much it is and it is absolutely found in foods to a negligable amount that mechanistically and correlation cannot and does not affect your health just pretty much at all um every time you breathe in there's a decent probability you've breathed in a few uranium molecules or uranium atoms because like they exist right the universe started with a giant nuclear Big Bang they're everywhere in very high concentrations they're no good but you can't avoid all of them and so below a certain level any hexane that you consume just doesn't essentially do anything and so worrying about this is like okay definitely don't go out in the sun you know every time you put your phone up to your ears radiation don't exist anywhere which has Wi-Fi that's radiation these are all things are just subclinical they just basically don't count and uh to that point it's not something to worry about so it's a it's an awesome concern on paper but in real life no worries Okay cool so hexan is not a problem and in modern processing most seed oils contain very few or zero trans fats all oils technically have some trans fats because sometimes that just happens kind of randomly in chemistry um and they're updated industry standards now and then cold pressed seed oils or minimally processed seed oils avoid these issues entirely and so basically like the trans fats thing is like you're just not going to find trans fats hardly anywhere anymore in the modern context every now and again you stumble on a few but it's really super rare so especially if you're buying like really awesome heart healthy canola oil at the store it's a seed oil this just not really any trans fats in there that you have to worry about and of course if you're I'm sorry folks the racial jokes getting out of hand on this channel I do pick on whites a lot because take a joke really well some of you um you could you can go for alternative products if you're really earthy you can get organic unrefined or expeller or pressed seed oils if you're concerned about processing and those are real they just cost like you know a trillion dollars a Trader Joe's whatever white people have story M shop that so that's a thing and so it's not the seed oils it's a lot of the stuff around them but the seed oils themselves definitely have downsides but in context some of these kind of start to disappear uh when you look at the thing more closely another one is kind of nutrient dilution seed oils can if you eat a crapload of them can displace healthier fats from the diet if you eat a lot of seed oils maybe you're undereating monosaturated fats uh from olive oil or Omega-3s from fish uh that's not good and they have a very high energy density so they're really calorie dense and obviously contribute to weight gain which results in metabolic syndrome and all this other really bad stuff and here's the thing uh in in most diets flexibility is awesome and Seed oils are a very minor contributor to dietary imbalances in most cases and as a matter of fact if you get in enough Omega-3s they're just not a contributor in pretty much any cases and the big issue with overeating and displacement to me the displacement thing is kind of funny because it assumes that people who eat a crapload of fried foods track their macros Scott can you imagine someone going off the diner and having that you know like french fries with chicken tenders where you know they came out of the same fryer at the same time they just put them on your plate and they're like counting their macros and shit they're like well I I've had quite a bit of linolic acid today better not eat my olive oil infused Garden kale salad later nobody's doing that shit so displacement is hilarious but the joke ends when you realize people just like eat their Norm shit and then put a crapload of seed oils and refried Foods at the diner in afterwards then the diner didn't quite hit Scott you ever leave a restaurant you're just like I can still eat you stop by uh Mickey D's on the way back you're just like I gotta have it bro no Ronald McDonald I'm a normal person do okay okay fine fine no fine I don't to get fast you are not a normal person um you ever like okay super super similar question are you ever like standing in the shower okay hands at your sides Scott and you're like I just wish I know it's not how like causality or the universe works wouldn't it be nice if Ronald McDonald just kind of walked in and I was able to hold him as we showered together and I watched his makeup come off and I was able to see the real him underneath all that corporate bullshit take off the red nose and just get to it I imagine he's like the Joker type character you know yo facts you don't want want that nose coming off yeah you you take it off Scott and it's just like one of those skull noses where there's nothing there and he's like and yeah actually that sounds really scary clowns clown scary I never want that shit to happen I take it back I take it back so it turns out the big issue is lower quality diet with high calories which just means a lot of junk food folks it just means junk food is really the problem next Omega 6 to omega3 ratio the steel is like there's an inflammatory effect where too many Omega sixes and not enough Omega-3s is just not ideal and of course the evolutionary argument but uh practically speaking if you just increase your omega-3 intake you can do it through fish consumption or supplements like fish oils or direct healthy fat supplements uh essential fat supplements uh EPA DHA supplements which are awesome you can just balance out the ratio the ratio has to be pretty tilted in Omega 6es anyway so it's not like a a lot of people get this Twisted they're like okay we way too many Omega 6s and not enough Omega-3s like okay you do way more Omega-3s and way fewer six like no that's the wrong ratio the ratio is supposed to be more 6 to3 so it's not that big of a walk for someone to just raise their shit on the three and lower their stuff on the six a little bit and and that really does well and the um direct link between this ratio and inflammation isn't as direct as we'd like to believe the human body is very adaptable very complex it regulates inflammatory pathways through like 10 different sub factors and all these other parts of of the system and so it's not super true to say like it is exactly true that Omega sixes that are too high every time cause high degree of inflammation it's a bit more nuanced than that it doesn't just happen in a linear fashion so most of the time if you just eat enough Omega-3s you're probably Gucci next to be very very complete in this discussion I'm sure I missed some other stuff but there are environmental concerns and some ethical concerns with consuming seed oils I mean a lot of food is done like this but there's a thing called monoculture farming we just do the the same field for the same stuff all the time and large scale seedoil production promotes monocultures which contribute to loss of biodiversity and deforestation and soil degradation there's lots of chemicals that go into that pesticides herbicides fertilizers which can harm ecosystems but it turns out that we know all these things and for some cost and many more food corporations are starting to do this we can actually obviate pretty much all of them uh there are lots of Innovations in sustainable agriculture regenerative farming reduced chemical inputs modified chemical inputs chemical inputs that we know where they're going and we can Loop them back in and don't not just have them just get all over into the environment can really mitigate these effects and uh some crops for seed oils are better than others in these more sustainably grown seed oil crops like uh sunflower and canola uh oils where they come from their seeds they reduce the environmental burden substantially so there's a way to eat seed oils to reduce the environmental burden and you know environmental burden happens with everything it's our um Duty as advanced civilized humans to make sure that we keep the environment clean and friendly and awesome but we just have to get better at the science of farming instead of just being like you can't Farm anymore because that's nonsense billions would starve that's kind of dead on a rifal there are some folks that say that there's an endocrine disruption problem you might have heard this before seed oils May and do in fact contrain Trace Amounts of phytoestrogens plant versions of molecules that look a whole lot like estrogen and function like that they sort of mimic estrogen and they might uh potentially disrupt endocrine function now the red team to this is actually quite kind of easy the levels of phytoestrogen in these compounds are extremely low and there's just no credible evidence that links their consumption to significant end endocrine disruption on mechanistic grounds it would be really curious another thing is like if you have a like 1,000th more estrogen in your body estrogen like compounds than you used to it just doesn't register on any scale if you have 1X like more estrogen like you had a 100 units and sorry let's say you had a th units and now you have a thousand one nothing's happening let's say you had a th000 units but now you have 2,000 what you're going to get from doubling of estrogen in many cases is like slightly more body water but your joints feel better you your your heart actually becomes healthier over time it's cardioprotective it's neuroprotect protective so it's actually better for your nervous system and your brain and long-term IQ you get a better fluid intelligence for communication so you can articulate your words better you can do better facial expression matching and all this other kind of female stuff and also estrogen is one hell of a strength drug fellas real talk like powerlifters when they need to bulk and they need to get strong they don't want to zap their estrogen everyone knows that's a bad idea in the sport you got to take steroids that convert to estrogen a ton and so people out here worried about soy worried about seed oils estrogen bro keep it away from me man I got a lift a truck I can't do shit like that like yeah but when you take dball every morning that produces like 80 trillion times more estrogen than the seed oil so it's just kind of a non-starter lastly High omega-6 diet and Mental Health Access omega-6 intake probably through inflammation can cause neural inflammation potentially affecting and worsening mood disorders leading to some declines in cognitive function all sorts of really not fun stuff but mental health issues are multifactorial and there are many ways to reduce the inflammatory nature of the diet and especially if you take in enough Omega-3s you just kind of kabash that one right away so it's really not a problem and here's another really quick kicker so those are all the big major concerns another question is can seed oils replace other fats in the diet and actually make the diet healthier and yes the answer is yes it's not pretend yes it is multiple very well done Placebo controled replacement trials where they have one group eat a certain amount of regular whatever fat different kinds of fats and another group take out some of those fats and replace them with certain kinds of seed oils that group that replace them just gets better markers on blood work for things that relate to cardiovascular disease profile inflammation and so on and so forth and there are seed oils that are higher in Omega-3s like canola oil and if the original fat that you're replacing is like lard or butter or coconut oil it's actually better to have canola oil instead of those within certain parameters and so that's a thing and so people say you got to get rid of the seed oils it's like why are they all these studies on the internet um from reputable Labs not just industry funded Labs but independent Labs as well to find that canola oil is actually really heart healthy and probably you should replace some of your butter and lard with it and you would do you a lot of good and this is where we get that hippie dippy attitude cuz canola oil is all pressed by machines and has hexan in it so it's bad and then people go coconut oil coconut that's like you know the indigenous peoples and they're connected to the land and coconuts like there's like a tropical thing and so they're good for me right well coconut oil turns out have a Lo of saturated fat in it and it's actually not that great for your health in excess it's fine in moderation but actually you can just take in way more canola oil before it gets to not being out of imbalance and hurting your health than coconut oil as I like to call call it coconut butter Scott I used to think I was going to make something with coconut oil and then I bought a can and it was just a solid mass of white and I was like like hold on I thought this poor lied to me and so the deal is like yeah man if you're going to say olive oil is really awesome that's true but canola oil is right up there and so just hash not all seed oils man because we're on the subject what does healthy overall fat type consumption look like maybe something like 25% or fewer of your total fats can come from saturated fat sources some 50/50 from animal sources and plant sources alike no big deal these aren't the greatest things in the world but that's totally fine up to about 25% polyunsaturated fats pfas um including many kinds of these seed oils can form another 25% of your diet um omega-6 pufas and of course a little bit but a critical amount of Omega-3 pufas uh a 4 to1 ratio is great there four Omega 6es for every one omega-3 is dope and then it turns out that like monounsaturated fats should compose roughly 50% of your total fats for health something I've been saying for a very long time hopefully it's true it's true um mostly from plant sources these are like the awesome fats and you know what's really cool is canola oil has a crapload of monounsaturated fats and so does olive oil and nuts and nut Butters but I'm getting ahead of myself because I have a whole list of foods for you that are awesome high fat foods if and when you need fats that's where to get them so foods high and better fats include fatty fish of various kinds um they are uh amazing for all sorts of Health outcomes they're awesome don't overeat fatty fish all the time unless you know it's sourcing really well because it could still have a little bit of excess mercury in it so it just like eat fatty fish for every single meal of every single day and you're going to be Gucci nuts and seeds including almonds walnuts macadamia nuts chia seeds flax seeds and all the butters that are made for them do not buy um what's that called geez Walnut butter is actually really good um cashew nut butter don't buy it because you're going to be addicted to it for the rest of your life Scott you ever tasted anything better than cashew butter before it's good it's so good bro and if you're dieting don't ever even smell it you're done um they're great for all kinds of stuff extra virgin olive oil which is also how Scott prefers his wi women no no I identify as extra virgin friends you can identify as a virgin born again virgin is the thing you know and honestly as ridiculous as it sounds if we're being cynical it's a real thing you can do I guess that's just like newly celibate being um involuntarily celibate my whole life I I was just uh you know I was born into it yo Scott I think I'm like the bane of Born Again virginity cuz like when some born again virgin is like yeah I just don't have sex anymore cuz it's like meaningless and it degrades me I'm like you merely adopted virginity I was born in it bathed in it I don't have anybody to have with me where am I ah yes avocado is an avocado oil white women win again you can basically drown yourself in that shit tons of mono unsaturated fats flax seed oil is great it's actually a great plant source of Omega-3s grass-fed uh Dairy can be really really good has a moderate amount of saturated fat plus a lot of monounsaturated fats grass-fed butter if you're extra extra Caucasian ghee Scott you ever seen someone not just just pale white pride themselves on eating ghee yeah I went to a guy's house and he uh was searing his steaks and ghee because it was at the highest smoke point it was the best sear for a steak let me guess he was white yeah and cooking on a black stone oh my God all the all the stereotyp every single stereotypes yes he was wearing birken stocks before anybody asks okay so um they're they're great grass-fed Dairy is actually great uh grain fed Dair is fine but grass-fed Dairy gets uh really just much more high quality fat so it's really great actually full fat Dairy believe it or not a massive massive explorations of the data is really really healthy for you so if you see see someone drinking like whole cream milk and it's grass-fed like as long as they're not overweight and they're Physically Active that's actually really good um whereas you know if someone's not overweight and physically active and you see them down like a bottle of vodka you're like B it's bad for you and you know it definitely is freerange eggs turns out when uh animals move around they become healthier strange and then you become healthier when you eat them uh they have uh actually some omega-3 enhanced options if you're really rich and profoundly white um God Scott this is like a list of white people shit this gets worse you guys thought the white people jokes uh we're getting out of hand check this out I'm gonna tell you I'm just gonna hit you with the following three categories that I have written out for what what kind of fats are are are healthy fats it is like you literally gonna become like Benjamin you're gonna become Benjamin Franklin after we're done with you check this out Scott you ready dark chocolate yeah just give me sushi and wine I'm literally a Caucasian woman in her late 20s uh tears included hemp seeds stop although Bob Marley but otherwise stop and then seaweed and algae oil like algae oil bro who asks for that at the store that's too much that's too far except white people foods high and worse fat so that's all the great fat foods and you should be eating them they're awesome if you like hippie girls and hipster girls take your ass to that expensive grocery store down the street ask for algae oil and you'll be swimming in no time and by it I mean female ejaculate not necessarily algae oil though both could be an excellent combination foods high in worse fats this is stuff to eat when you feel like a treat a few times a week maybe it's also something you can eat never and just don't not have to worry about it but a few times a week it doesn't uh cause any kind of notable harm but if you start leaning into this stuff kind of all the time or really often you're not going to have a good time a couple weeks ago my wife and I did a little vacation and we had some friends over actually meno henselman and while meno ate preposterously healthy the entire time that he was here except for the few meals I forced him to eat junk food my wife and I were like still doing macros still training uh still doing calories everything in control but we were eating a bit of BS right like gas station food and and crap like that you guys like I legitimately would not heal from Doms because my inflammation was completely completely outlandish like and my like throat swelled up a little bit I was is going on switch back to healthy food in like 2 days I was like I can breathe and see the world my brain was so clear my sleep was better I'm like okay this is what it's like to have even like one junk food thing a day like there are people who eat three meals a day of this stuff what stuff fried foods because they have trans fats in them and overheated pfas no good french fries fried chicken onion rings Etc especially when they're uh cooked and reused oil bad news again ever now and again just fun just fun with your friends all the time not great package snacks Sometimes they used to have trans fats in them they really don't anymore but chips crackers microwave popcorn you can have these on occasion in the context of a calorie controlled backro controlled diet but it's just not something to eat all the time processed Meats sausages hot dogs bacon Scott do you remember there's you like a 15 years ago like a bacon Trend where hipster started eating everything with bacon and they're like bacon yeah it's still pretty big I think oh no shit are people still diluting themselves that that's healthy or no uh I think much less stop people stop yeah Bacon's not that great for your health there are ways to make bacon and waste of source bacon they make it much better but on average you know like slim gym is not uh a core part of an excellent diet we have margines and shortenings which are chain trans fats these are like very very rare nowadays though you can still find them refined seed oils corn oil soybean oil sunflower oil a lot of times these occur in like salad dressings and nacho cheese dips basically fellas some shit you know you're not supposed to be eating all the time but you still do it anyway all right real talk fast foods I mean they're a combination of poor fats and all kinds of carbs and saturated fats trans fats unhealthy pfas fast food actually has all three of the nasty categories of fats uh typically and some of them are don't have trans fats anymore very low level some still do uh like guys fast food's bad for you I don't know how else to say this this is news to nobody right notice this does not require the presence of any magical special chemicals it's just like everything about fast food sucks that's why it's junk food and every now and again it's amazing but if if you just rely on as like a daily weight to get in calories you're going to have a bad time ice cream and desserts have saturated fats and refined sugars they're not the ideal source of fats vegetable shortenings um they're used in in baked goods basically if you see a pie hanging out for two weeks in your Kroger with just a little simple plastic lid on it it doesn't go bad um it's not something to eat on a daily basis uh every now and again Grandma's Original pie recipe TM is totally fine to eat but I wouldn't rely on that all the time and then we have processed cheese products which I sort of already mentioned cheese slices spreads um uh shelf stable cheese products uh a lot of times you know they have lowquality saturated fats in them and they just not aideal a bit of cheese here and there works really well it's just not you know something you need to be eating dayto day all the damn time which I used to do and I'm not currently doing and I feel way better for not doing them so the key takeaways here is that if you prioritize whole minimally processed foods like fatty fish nuts nut butter seeds olive oils canola oils avocados you're going to have an awesome time it's really great and the not ideal fads to avoid for the most part except on occasion are uh you know heavily processed foods trans fats most kind of void all the time and fried items uh especially deep fried ones cooked in reused oils and to that point if it's not the seed oils that are doing Us in because it looks like in the context of a good uh balance of Omega sixes and 3es choosing better options like uh really well-made canola oils and keeping the context of making sure to eat mostly monounsaturated fats and not mostly omega-6 pufas all of a sudden seed oils by themselves really have functionally no downsides as a category it's just that the way they're introduced into the diet and some of the processing that occurs with some of them is definitely not good so if it's not the seed oils cuz like a lot of people will watch this and be like well what the hell like I was told seed oils are more or less foundationally responsible for our obesity epidemic and our Health crisis in America and the rest of the world what what the hell's going on this is not seed oils what is it guys here's the thing and this is my big soap box from now until I don't know when bro until everyone for the most part people change their minds we already know what's bad for us it is not a mystery it has not been a mystery since the 1970s delicious often highly processed cheap convenient junk foods high in carbs and fats in some combination that lead to caloric excess because they're so goddamn good to eat and you just can't stop and they lead to body fat gain coupled with low levels of physical activity and low levels to zero levels of resistance training for your muscles is what puts you in the ground in the food system that's it fellas that's 95% of what's doing it everything else is either details or just doesn't do hardly anything measurable or anything at all and I know this sounds like the Scooby-Doo un asking the villain and it's just like a mirror of yourself crap it's me eating my old junk food again but at the very least the explanation of like just eat less junk and eat more healthy food is simple it's actionable you can do something about it's not a mystery if someone tells you like oh it's hexane beta galacto globulin H6 kn5 that you need to be avoiding and there's in so many foods you'll never know where it is the am I supposed to do I'm not a chemist I can't look at food and x-ray scan it see if that shit is in there what the hell but like everybody knows what junk food is I don't mean everyone someone has a grandma that doesn't most people know what junk food is or isn't and it's not difficult to figure out what the hell simple you can just easily cut your junk food consumption if you'd like it's monitorable which mean like you know how much junk food you're eating and you know how your body feels it's logical it's like there's no there all the evidence for junk food causing harm is like overwhelming it's not even Up For Debate anymore in any in a grand sense and it doesn't require you to be paranoid about mysterious yet deleterious very specific ingredients and that's a big myth people are looking for that one killer bro it's that family-sized bag of Doritos you bought for yourself for the fourth time this week that's the killer that's the killer folks it's not some kind of grand plot or conspiracy there's the elephant in the room it's a big ass elephant because he's been eating twoo much junk food just like you pimp all right two last things and I'll get the out of your hair RP diet coach app exists and you can get it Link in the description it'll help you with your dieting it doesn't pick the foods for you because we leave that part to you uh so pick the right foods with video information such as this the RP hypertrophy app if you're not Bor to te still want to get jacked then you can uh get that and it's awesome Link in the description as well makes all the programs for you and um we don't usually do this because for the most part on non-technical audiences in non-technical talks like this citations get lost in the that just don't bother with them um we have included a crapload of further reading citations so you can look through the studies yourself look through the metanalyses and figure out like oh yeah seed oils are not actually fundamentally bad for your health it's just how we apply them that's bad so those will be linked in the description and uh I'm going to go drink a giant container of seed oils and cry to myself in the shower awaiting for Ronald McDonald's arrival see you guys next [Music]
