00:01Okay, okay. So I'm told to eat a lot of healthy fats. Now that's all the rage. Used to be
00:07not cool in the early 90s, whatever. Fat was bad, sugar was good. Now fat is good. Make
00:13you burn more fat. I eat fat, I look good, I happy. That's what we hear, right? It's
00:20true. It's true. A lot of caveats here. What's the best type of fat I could eat then? If
00:27I know I should be having more fat than sugar. Well, I know that unsaturated fat
00:32is good, right? I know that saturated fat is bad. I know that trans fat is bad. Yes.
00:42But what if the trans fat is natural? Comes in food. Because some foods, very few,
00:48naturally contain trans fats. They're not nearly as bad as the ones that are
00:52processed. Long story short, yes, unsaturated are typically the best. The
00:58best are marine fats. EPA and DHA. Get their name because, well, they come from
01:04fatty fish. Like salmon, mackerel, tuna, herring, sardines, anchovies, trout, things
01:11like that. Right? Some other shellfish, stuff like that. But the fatty fish are
01:15really good. So those are definitely really good fats for your brain and for
01:18your heart. We know that much. All right. When it comes to saturated fat, well, there's
01:26no correlation between saturated fat intake and heart disease. Okay. So that's a good
01:33thing. But saturated fat is not as good as the unsaturated fats in general because it
01:39can contribute, if you have excessive amounts of it, to overgrowth of harmful bacteria in
01:43the gut, which obviously is bad. Right? And can block LDL receptors, low density lipoprotein
01:50receptors on the liver surface. And so the liver can't take the LDL cholesterol, we know
01:56bad cholesterol, right? And then filter it out of the blood and process it. And so it
02:00can build up. Okay. But it's not associated with heart disease. So is that really that bad?
02:05Trans fats. When you guys see trans fats, they're typically coming from processed foods.
02:13Hydrogenated vegetable oils, namely, like soybean oil, is often partially or completely hydrogenated.
02:21What is hydrogenated? Hydrogen, hydrogen, aided, aided. They aided the fat with more hydrogens,
02:29right? Because an unsaturated fat is a nice kinky chain. A nice hydrocarbon, we could say,
02:36kinky chain. That means it has hydrogens and carbons. So the carbons are in the middle,
02:41right? And it gets kinky because there's some double bonds between the carbons. And then there's
02:46hydrogens attached to all those. And if you guys took chemistry, you know, you need a certain
02:50number of bonds for a compound to be stable, right? And so it has these hydrogens, but it has
02:56less hydrogens, does an unsaturated fat than a saturated fat. Well, why is that? Saturated fat
03:03is linear, straight line, single, single, single, single bond between the carbons. So that extra
03:08bond, that double bond that was between the carbons in the unsaturated fat is now taken away
03:13and they bind a hydrogen to it instead. They aid the fat with hydrogens to make it more linear in
03:20structure, like a saturated fat and solid at room temperature. And because it has a longer shelf life,
03:24it's more stable. And obviously that's not healthy. So before we get into my grade, and we will here
03:31in a second, of what the healthiest fats are in general, just know this. Know that if you get it
03:39from some source that is not processed in nature, that fat comes from that. Whether it's really good
03:47meat that is grass-fed, grass-finished, right? Because that's the natural way that the cow would
03:53eat, right? So it makes sense that if you have the one that ate all the natural stuff, good in,
04:00good out, it's probably going to be better for you. It is true. Look at pasture-raised eggs, eating worms
04:04and bugs and grubs and ticks and things like that instead of just grain. They produce more nutritious
04:09eggs. If you're getting things that come right from nature, as close to the source as possible,
04:15as minimal processing as you can find, not processed at all, it's going to be okay.
04:22Alright? So it's going to be okay. So just know that and don't worry about hard disease. Don't worry
04:26about all this other shit. Alright? Just know that. Okay. We got that. But what's really interesting
04:31is, one, my grade of what the top fats are, but more importantly, when examined grades, as the
04:39good, okay, and worse fats, in terms of your increased risk, or lower risk, for colorectal
04:49cancer. And that's why I wanted to talk about this tonight, because I was reading a long article
04:55that Examen put out. I don't want to even come close to summarizing the whole thing. It's just
04:59a crazy amount of information, but very, very interesting stuff. And the gist of it was,
05:04they have, in terms of colorectal cancer risk, grading of low risk, unclear slash neutral. It's
05:14like we don't really know, right? And then higher risk for colorectal cancer, which is obviously
05:18the worst. Low risk, marine fats, EPA and DHA. Find those in the fatty fish, again, like we were
05:25talking about. Between low risk and unclear, or like neutral, we're not really sure, saturated
05:37fat, actually, was next. So saturated fat might, they just came out with a study is why they
05:44did this whole long thing on it, at least examine and summarize the study, that saturated fat
05:50was associated, intake was associated with a lower risk of colorectal cancer. But other studies
05:55have shown that's not the case. Another study did show that it was associated with a lower
05:59risk. Another one said neutral. They put it between low risk and neutral. Not necessarily
06:05low risk by the research, not necessarily neutral, it's in between. So really second best there,
06:09which I thought was just pretty cool, right? Because people always villainize saturated fat.
06:15MUFAs and PUFAs. What is a MUFA? Monounsaturated fatty acid. PUFA, polyunsaturated fatty acid.
06:25Multiple double bonds, right? I believe that's why I spelled that. Think back to chemistry.
06:32They were neutral, okay? They were neutral or unclear. MUFAs and PUFAs. Now keep in mind
06:38that omega-3s are PUFAs. But not all PUFAs are omega-3s. Omega-3s are the EPA, DHA, the marine
06:43fats. So what was the best, actually, those are a form of PUFA, right? So those ones are
06:49really good. But not all PUFAs are amazing. And if you're going to pick between MUFAs and PUFAs
06:53in general, they're both good, right? And it depends on the food. Again, it's not processed
06:58and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. So I wouldn't really worry about MUFAs or PUFAs. Just like
07:02unsaturated fat is typically better, you know? And the best type of fat you can get is from
07:06fish is from seafood, right? For the most part. And nuts and seeds. And avocado. And extra
07:13virgin olive oil. We know that. That has a lot of MUFAs, extra virgin olive oil. Higher risk
07:18for colorectal cancer was industrial trans fats. Industrial trans fats. Not regular trans fats
07:29that you find in food. Industrial trans fats, again, you know, at least one example would be
07:34hydrogenated vegetable oils. And we use the example of soybean oil. Sunflower oil sometimes is too,
07:40and other seed oils and things like that. Soybean oil is a common culprit, right? They put it in all
07:46this shit. You go to restaurants to use a lot of soybean oil. Often. It's cheap. Gets the job done.
07:52So what natural foods have trans fats, right? If we're not going to villainize natural trans fats,
08:00you know, then we had better name some foods that are nutritious, natural and healthy that contain
08:05them. Well, it's mostly meat and dairy products. Only a few of them. Things like beef, lamb, milk,
08:12butter and cheese. Those have natural trans fats. But they're in such small amounts. And it's really
08:20not going to have a negative effect on your health. At least it shouldn't. So now finally, what is when
08:26wellness is great of fats? In general, colorectal cancer, heart health, everything. Brain health that you
08:34can get from food. Well, again, non-process number one before you remember any order comes from whole
08:41food. Close to the source as possible. Go out and kill it and eat it. You know, boost your testosterone
08:48to kill it also. Don't go killing animals. Animals are good. So number one, marine fats. Definitely have
08:58to take the number one spot in my eyes by the research. In general, EPA and DHA. Eat those fatty
09:04fish, right? Number two, is it saturated? No. MUFAs and PUFAs, I would say. In general, I would put it
09:13number two. So monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats. Things like extra virgin olive oil, avocado,
09:19nuts and seeds, all that kind of stuff. Really good natural fats, right? So those would be number two.
09:28Number three is saturated fat. Saturated fat is not the devil, but it's not necessarily the best
09:36type of fat that you can have. It's pretty much right there in the middle. Next, I would grade
09:43trans fats that are natural. Natural trans fats. From that beef, lamb, milk, cheese, butter we were
09:51talking about, right? Those are, you know, maybe saturated fats. They're pretty even with saturated
09:55fat. I wouldn't really be concerned. The worst for sure, industrial trans fats, by far. Stay away
10:03from seed oil. Stay away from processed oils. Anything that's hydrogenated, right? That stuff
10:08is garbage. It increases inflammation. Your risk for chronic disease is really, really bad. So I hope
10:14that we could clarify your view, your, your, your thoughts and your perception of what is healthy
10:22in regards to fats. And maybe they're not all created equal, but the fact that you should get
10:28them just from real whole food is definitely the first thing you should be thinking. That's what we
10:35got for you guys. Who do we got on here? Let's see what's up to everybody. And we're going to go
10:41because it's late now. We were reading a lot before. KG, how you doing? Extraversion Album is
10:46great. I have a shot every day. Clara, how are you? Ralph, Pascual, Meg, Ash, Goldilocks,
10:53what's up? Sabrina, I appreciate that. Tussor, Paul, what's up, man? Your beast. Kim, Danny,
11:02what's up, dude? See you tomorrow. Life Wrangler, SBU Bowling, Sylvia, what's up, baby girl?
11:08And McCreary, Kyle. As for now, that's all we got for you folks. We'll see you tomorrow,
11:13baby. Not sure where, not sure when, but we'll see you then. Have an awesome rest of your
11:17night. Thank you so much and happy wind wellness. See ya.
11:23Bye.
