[@freedomdude5420]

When fats become a unstaple, this is where eating your fruits and vegetables comes in and when I mean fruits and vegetables I don’t mean drink juice. It’s even better if you have your fruits and vegetables in a garden because they have the highest amount of nutrients that you need. This will help you with dealing with free radicals when the fat breakdown.

Does eating so many fats cause problems with the gallbladder?

Someone asked you one time which fat to use for deep frying. You said it doesn't exist (which seems correct) but I was thinking... could a high pressure cooker be used? At 3000 psi water boils at 700 C (I'm joking of course but things do change at pressure, could any pressure be workable?)

The Sesame Street issue. Part of education is learning how to learn beyond blips but over time to absorb more information. To learn to mastery, it takes time. He does a great job, but there is a lot beyond it, he probably prepped for a full week to make the 10 min video.

Dr. Sten I've been searching for about 2 weeks for a good explanation of saturated fatty acids and unsaturated fatty acids. They were either dumbed down to much or incomplete due to a bias for either one. I am grateful for your complete and balanced explanation. You have answered and filled several bewildering gaps in my understanding Saturated vs Unsaturated Fats. Thank you! I eagerly plan to watch your recommended video "Best Fats To Eat" next.

[@chriswhitehouse8982]

Yes, that's the way my dad ate too. He ate eggs and bacon for breakfast every day and some kind of meat with every dinner. Ate real butter and put heavy whipping cream in his coffee. He was always more healthy than me (trying to eat more plant-based and low fat), and he lived until he was 95 years old (still playing golf weekly into his early 90s too).

[@sahbazarabi8324]

This is the best video I 've seen so far explaining the science behind the fats , thank you Dr.Edberg

[@TakeTheBluePilll]

One very important point was, that body uses saturated fats for fuel, which if used may lead to some sort of weight loss. Second point was, when polyunsaturated fats are exposed to oxygen or heat, they become "toxins". Would gladly hear more on this point, does this apply only to polyunsaturated fats, at what point or temperature does this process start, how to get around it besides not exposing it to heat? And in the end, what should be used when frying a slice of meat or vegetables, it you don't want to get intoxicated?

[@nabeelmirza6060]

You can use butter or ghee

Now I have a doubt. I use only avocado oil for cooking which is non saturated fat. Now, I buy big, half gallon plastic bottle which lasts for about few months, sitting in dark and room temperature place, tightly capped. Is it still safe and healthy for using after all that time? Should I maybe keep it in a fridge? Thanks

[@criseldabuenafe642]

Dr Sten, i also have learned about hydrocarbons in college .and i could relate to your explanation really..the single -bonded HCs(saturated) refer to alkanes, those with double bonds ( unsaturated) are called alkenes, and the ones with triple-bonds are called alkynes...it is so ironic since supposedly, the triple bonded should be the strongest and more stable...but the byproducts of petroleum oil , like lpg ,gasoline, acetylene, have all triple bonds ...and they are so volatile..so they are not really stable..so thanks much dr.Ekberg for the refresher / additional info.. at least we will not be in doubt anymore what oily foods are beneficial to the body...👍

Hi, was wondering if you would have nutrition tips for women in menopause. I hope you can create a content for this.

[@שגהש]

So is saturated fat healthy or not? For example beef fat etc

[@bartkremers4823]

Hello Dr Ekberg. Great video well explained as usual. I have watched a lot of your videos and think they are all great. I just want to rectify a small mistake: you called the fatty acid with 16 carbon atoms stearic acid, that's not correct. Stearic acid has 18 carbon atoms and palmitic acid has 16 carbon atoms.

[@insanefinance2846]

So I only new the tip of the iceberg on this subject. You just revealed the whole iceberg.

[@yuriart]

how do you avoid high cholesterol by using these fats? which is best? thank you

[@jeffharmed1616]

Many thanks. Great food for thought. As a retired chemical engineer (hydrocarbons) I enjoyed you explanations of isomers. I have no biology background so coming to conclusions about what works in the body is a huge leap for me. I assume short chained fats might be metabolised too quickly, causing insulin spikes (maybe Caproic acid C6H12O2 in MCT oil). Longer chained fats with double bonds near the Middle might be ideal (For example alpha-Linolenic acid C18H30O2 in flaxseed oil). So possibly the later is better for OAPs like myself with veins hardening from straight chain saturated fats. Just trying to understand the complexities of body chemistry thanks.

What is monounsaturated fat? Good or bad?

[@directajith]

does that mean fish oil when consumed as fish is damaging to body? ( because it is heated when it is cooked)

[@dirtsailoroff-road5580]

So we should cook with butter and not olive oil?

[@sweetlife5670]

Olive oil isn’t “also called oleic acid”. This is deceiving. There is oleic acid in olive oil, but they are not the same thing. Oleic acid is also found in chicken, nuts, and many other foods.

This video was very unclear about which ones were and were not saturated and which I should have more of and what foods have them and why. All I got from this whole thing unfortunately was butter good, margarine bad. Biggest problem though was which ones were saturated It sounded to me like olive oil was BAD and thats suuuuper confusing.

SFAs have been broadly related with cell apoptosis and this has been associated with several metabolic diseases including T2D. Specifically a decrease in β-cell mass caused by an increase in apoptosis has been linked to palmitic acid. Please Explain

[@linthoisanayumnam4376]

There are many different kinds of SFAs. They act differently in the body according to the chain length. You can't lump them all together simply because they contain no double bond.

Storing fat and eating fat are two different things. If you lose weight your insulin sensitivity should improve.

@@andreffrosa that’s how saturated fat is linked. It stored saturated fat. Not that you use saturated fat for energy.
