My meal plan is similar in some ways but I don't like the lack of greens(save the avocado) I takr one egg with 3 oz of steaks or bacon; a full handful of greens which i grow myself (brocc, alfalfa, radish and/or arugula, with a small avocado);tomato, spoonful of homemade sauerkraut to start and a fibrous fruit after(orange or pears usually) So, more plant based ...is that bad?? No snacking but for a handful of macadamia's and a light dinner of chicken, fish, lamb or pork with one veggie side stringbean, spinach, broccoli or mixed green salad. I will add back the kefir and balance any cut in carbs with protein addition as per your plan. Thanks for the plan!

We know for a fact too much oxidation is bad. We know for a fact seed oils are highly oxidated. Yet the "evidence" based community insists there's nothing wrong with them because they're unable to admit they were completely wrong about saturated animal fat.

[@Fastmack]

"we know for a fact seed oils are highly oxidated" Do we? It seems like repeatedly heating seed oils to high heat such as in fast-food fryer type scenarios causes oxidation, but it's unclear that pure seed oils that have never been exposed to high heat or other oxidizing sources, have any oxidation at all. It seems to be oxidation and not seed oils themselves which are the problem, no?

[@paulc5389]

@Fastmack they're ultra processed and high heat is used to produce them. Even if you find a cold pressed one they'll oxidate eventually just at room temperature. Not that that's relevant as the vast vast majority of people use them to cook with.

[@N8urecure]

Good point. Also, think about which industries fund that industry 🤔

​@@Fastmackand if seed oils are a great template for oxidation to occur with, which they are, then they become a vehicle for ushering more oxidation into the body.

Most seed oil is oxidised though & in nature we dont get isolated raw seed oils. So sticking to fatty ruminant meat, eggs, grassfed butter & iodised salt with heavy cream, cream cheese for those who tolerate dairy well will provide alot of energy for optimal fatty acid metabolism.

[@trailduster24]

Best oils? 1. Olive oil 2. Avocado oil

[@paulc5389]

Best is relative. Sure they're much less worse than seed oils if you want to eat them cold. But it's best not to consume any fat that's usually liquid at room temperature. Olive oil that's been sat on a shelf and then in your cupboard for weeks or months will still go slightly rancid and oxidate.

**Key Takeaways from "The Literal Most Metabolically Damaging Foods (Damage Mitochondria)" - Thomas DeLauer** Mitochondria, responsible for energy production in cells, are a critical factor in metabolic health. Damage to mitochondria can impair energy metabolism, contributing to metabolic disorders such as type 2 diabetes, obesity, and metabolic syndrome. Certain foods have been identified as particularly harmful to mitochondrial function, leading to negative health outcomes. Thomas DeLauer highlights these foods, discussing how they damage the mitochondria and thereby degrade our metabolic health. Here are the key takeaways: --- #### **1. Glucose (Sugar) - Energy Disruptor and Mitochondrial Fragmenter** - **Excessive glucose intake** is more than just a blood sugar issue; it also directly hinders mitochondria. - Studies show that high glucose levels fragment mitochondrial structures and decrease their energy output. This leads to poor energy utilization and more fat storage. - Glucose results in an increase in **reactive oxygen species (ROS)**, which further stresses the mitochondria. - Key studies (e.g., *Journal of Molecular Sciences*) demonstrated that high amounts of concentrated glucose in one sitting severely compromised mitochondria’s ability to function. --- #### **2. Fructose - More Damaging Than Glucose** - **Fructose**, particularly in processed forms like **high-fructose corn syrup** (found in sodas and processed foods), significantly harms mitochondria. - In rodent studies, **fructose consumption** (especially in combination with fats) led to mitochondrial dysfunction and liver cell damage, driving the development of **non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD)**. - **Advanced Glycation End Products (AGEs)** are produced more intensively by fructose, increasing oxidative stress and damaging mitochondria. These **AGEs** activate receptors (e.g., **RAGE receptors**) on cells that trigger mitochondrial self-destruction. - Excess fructose disturbs **insulin signaling**, exacerbating long-term metabolic dysfunction. --- #### **3. Seed Oils - Oxidized Oils Are Mitochondrial Toxins** - DeLauer differentiates between **fresh seed oils** and **oxidized seed oils** (which are prone to developing in high-temperature cooking or poor storage). - When **linoleic acid** (the main fatty acid in seed oils) becomes **oxidized**, it damages mitochondria, reducing their functionality and prompting them to self-destruct. - Studies found that under conditions where oils are oxidized (e.g., in fast-food fryers), mitochondrial dysfunction was much more pronounced in rodents. - **Industrially processed seed oils** like **safflower oil**, **sunflower oil**, **soybean oil**, and **corn oil** are highly sensitive to oxidation and can become metabolic toxins when consumed in large quantities. --- #### **4. Saturated Fat - Damaging Without Protein** - Saturated fat alone can damage mitochondria, but when consumed **with adequate protein**, this harm is mitigated. - In rodent studies, a **low-protein, high-saturated-fat diet** caused mitochondrial dysfunction and swelling. However, when protein intake was sufficient, saturated fat had little to no adverse effects on the mitochondria. - The **length of carbon chains** in saturated fats plays a role-longer-chain fatty acids are more damaging to mitochondria, whereas shorter-chain fats like those found in **coconut oil** are less harmful and easier for mitochondria to utilize. --- #### **5. Creatine - A Surprising Mitochondrial Protector** - **Creatine**, although traditionally used as a muscle-building supplement, may help **protect mitochondria** by reducing oxidative stress and aiding energy production. - Creatine allows the body to shuttle energy to cells without overloading the mitochondria, supporting their function during times of high energy demand. - DeLauer considers creatine a potential **longevity supplement**, useful beyond its common role in athletic performance. --- #### **6. Gluten - Potential Mitochondrial Disruptor (Especially in Sensitive Individuals)** - While definitive human data is lacking, mechanistic and in vitro studies indicate that **gluten**, particularly the **gliadin protein**, can harm **intestinal cells**, resulting in mitochondrial dysfunction and damage to DNA. - For individuals with **autoimmune conditions** or **gluten sensitivity** (e.g., those with **Celiac disease**), gluten might act as a mitochondrial disruptor, increasing oxidative stress and overall metabolic disruption. - Though the evidence is still speculative, the effects of gluten on mitochondrial health warrants further attention, particularly in vulnerable populations. --- #### **7. Metabolic Gridlock - A Crisis of Abundance** - **Metabolic gridlock** occurs when the body is flooded with multiple fuel sources, particularly a combination of **high-fat** and **high-sugar** simultaneously. - Mitochondria are optimized to burn either fats or sugars at one time; when both macros are present in excess, the system becomes overwhelmed, leading to *mitochondrial dysfunction* and inefficient energy processing (i.e., gridlock). - Consuming ultra-processed, high-calorie foods sets the stage for this mitochondrial bottleneck, ultimately creating **metabolic overload** and driving conditions like obesity and metabolic syndrome. --- ### **Conclusion: The Crisis of Modern Diets on Mitochondrial Health** The foods we consume every day-whether it's sugar-laden beverages, fast foods rife with seed oil, or snacks high in processed fructose-are slowly eroding our cellular machinery at its core: the mitochondria. These small but powerful organelles are responsible for energy production and metabolic regulation, and damage to them can lead to far-reaching consequences, from metabolic disorders like type 2 diabetes to visceral fat accumulation and more. While traditional dietary wisdom focuses on controlling caloric intake or macronutrient distributions, DeLauer urges us to look deeper into the **quality** of the foods we're consuming. The type of fat, the source of sugar, and the integrity of oils all play a significant role in our mitochondrial health. It's not just about what we eat, but how processed, oxidized, or concentrated these foods are. By focusing on **minimizing processed sugars**, **avoiding oxidized oils**, and **balancing fat with adequate protein**, we can preserve mitochondrial function and support overall metabolic health. The modern abundance of calorie-dense, energy-sapping foods fosters a situation where our mitochondrial systems become overstressed and overwhelmed. Therefore, protecting mitochondria might ultimately protect longevity and quality of life. Choosing whole foods, naturally occurring oils, and supplements like **creatine** may not only improve mitochondrial performance but also stave off age-related diseases and metabolic dysfunction. In essence, understanding mitochondrial damage caused by dietary choices helps us make better health decisions. It’s not just about eating less, but eating smart-preserving the small engines that keep us going in the long run. **The key to metabolic health lies in the balance and quality of the fuel we choose to give our bodies.** --- As DeLauer sums it up, mitigating mitochondrial damage could be the first step toward not just weight management or fitness gains, but also increased energy, longevity, and resistance to metabolic diseases.

Avoid it. You can die if your mouth got swollen too much and cause you to suffocate. It's dangerous. If you can, visit allergologist, he will say which food exactly you react to, and which food to avoid. Also if you can, check your vitamin D level. It helps with overreacting immune system. My seasonal allergy is better after I started taking vitamin D supplements but I was very deficient. Also there is therapy where you are exposed to measured by doctor dose of allergen so your immune system will learn that it's not bad for you. But you need to talk to an allergologist about it. I didn't do it, so I take medication during my season. It wasn't that bad this year. But I still needed medication. Some people with hay fever eat local honey and it helps them with their allergy. So small exposure to allergen can help teach your immune system to not overreact.

[@jujugarcianyc]

You're being too nuanced about seed oils. They are bad, full stop. Sure, they aren't bad if you use a cold-pressed one in a non-heated setting, but that accounts for probably less than a tenth of a percent of seed oil usage. The overwhelming majority of them are oxidized in production and if not, certainly oxidized during high-heat cooking. So sure, oil from seeds isn't inherently bad, but if in nearly 100% of realistic use cases they are damaged, than it's more truthful to just say THEY ARE BAD FULL STOP.

[@MrStoffzor]

I mean. Even sitting in room temp it'll eventually peroxidize, so yeah...

[@stevenarvizu3602]

Incorrectamundo señor. Seed oils have documented negative health effects, as do literally all foods. The more we research food the more we find the true costs of eating too much of anything, but seed oils are not inherently more dangerous than other stuff we eat, including whole foods. I know it sucks to hear that all food is essentially poison in one way or another, but the goal should be to eat a balanced diet that has positive health effects that cancel out the negatives of others. But yes people, especially Americans, could stand to ease off of all of the excess seed oils we use. You won’t die if you smoke a cigarettes, your brain wont shrink to a peanut because you had a French fry, just don’t do it consistently or habitually and you’ll be fine.

[@jujugarcianyc]

@ I apologize if my comment didn’t make this clear but I’m not saying they are inherently bad. But im saying it betrays trust to not emphatically call them bad in the context of America where an overwhelming amount of them are used in unhealthy ways a huge majority of the time. Since the corporate monster of forces against a reduction in the unhealthy usage of them stands in the way, I don’t see the point in investing energy and time into giving nuance to the seed oils story. When there’s literally billions of dollars pushing one direction of the narrative. Sure if we are having a one hour discussion, let’s mention nuance but in a short video I don’t know who it serves to paint the seed oil story with nuance except for the seed oil industry

[@advex4428]

How bad is it to brown/caramellizing onions as step 1 of cooking a meal?

[@MrStoffzor]

How bad is it to consume any amount of carcinogens?

[@advex4428]

I guess my question is more directedat people who learned how to cook and know a way around the onion thing, still getting to flavor country.

[@debiwillis9045]

​@@advex4428they are usually caramelized at a low temp, not high, so I see no issue at all

[@helenahandkart1857]

Great questions

[@MrStoffzor]

@@debiwillis9045 same result. Lower temp just makes it take longer to get there.

Whatever FDA says I try to avoid it. I found myself in this rabbit hole of so many industry lies when I read "The 23 Former Doctor Truths". Its no wonder why Doctor left her career.

I get inflammation flare ups when I eat seed oils... They are delicious but just 1 sandwich with light mayo on both slices of bread will cause me pain 😢 My labs showed I can't eat gluten because I tested positive for 1 of the 2 blood tests.

[@kotenoklelu3471]

It's bread that is causing your inflammation if you are allergic to gluten. Stop eating gluten. It's proven that your immune system reacts to gluten. You need to go gluten free.

Yeah, no 50% discount on the creatine,only 30% off.

Do seed oils get ocifixed during digestion?

[@bannanaization]

Someone should challenge layne norton to go a month getting most of his calories from sugar/fructose and seed oils as an experiment

[@paulc5389]

Layne: "There's no science showing seed oils are bad". Thomas: "Here's some science showing seed oils are bad". Layne: "There's no science showing seed oils are bad".

What about stevia effect on the liver?

[@kotenoklelu3471]

Stevia is good for liver. It doesn't have fructose that metabolize in liver like sugar

[@2upinvesting]

Great video.

[@sarmedmahdi1942]

If something wrong happens to us as a result of eating gluten, just neutralize the cause and not eat pastries that contain gluten directly. The shortest path between two points is a straight line. There is no need for false compliments.

[@ZahraBayramnejad]

Saturated fat without protein 😮so in keto diet most of them like heavy cream,sour cream,....bad for us?

[@helenahandkart1857]

Keep it next to protein

You only eat 3 gummies a day but take the entire bag to the gym to toss them in the air before eating? 😂😂😂

[@binnieuk]

can those gummies not be shipped to the UK? is there an equivalent in the UK?

[@howiesfunware]

It all comes down to avoid processed fats, sugars and grains. Done.

Brother, about your sponsor, I also have creatine monohydrate with no sugar and also no gummies

[@Dreamopticsredlightglasses]

Thanks very much, very interesting good for mitochondrial health creatine, vitamin d, whey protein, calcium, fish oil, exercise, light

[@jamesalles139]

thanks

[@jsun3117]

It's been known for quite some time that fructose is the worst of sugars that, like alcohol, the liver can only process. People that are already downing unrestricted 100 percent fruit juice thinking they're doing good for themselves or their children then consuming their artificially selected organic certified fruit where the fiber can barely if at all buffer the fructose content are in for a rude awakening sooner or later down the line.

[@maryalano8081]

[@markspencer7114]

Can you explain why the gluten issue is relatively new and why people with gluten issues can tolerate gluten foods in Europe.

[@kelleclark]

GMO wheat is the cause...not your grandma's wheat :(

[@debiwillis9045]

This has been discussed for at least 10 years!

[@markspencer7114]

@ correct 10 years is relatively new seeing as let’s say 20 years ago there was no gluten sensitivity per say. So what has changed in our grains or processing that has created the issue

[@jcescolastico5299]

The bottomline for me is bad or good eat in moderation better fast and hydrate. Even when you eat the healthiest food you will still ending up sick a vlogger died from eating heathy. So the better keyword is eat in moderate and eat most greens and hydrate!

[@benwhite1510]

Fructose isn't bad when it's with glucose

[@JasonBuckman]

Yes it is. Fructose is bad, period. The bad is mitigated when combined with fiber and polyphenols in whole food form.

Studies show that fructose is bad for rats' methobolism. How do we sure that it is applicable to all other animals like monkeys eating fruits or humans?

[@lindag9975]

Thanks. Much of the contents of seed oils are lab made. But I eat sunflower seeds from time to time. Not too worried about the non-GMO foods in their natural states. But not going to risk eating any more lab created garbage.

[@Fast-e-Learning]

Fructose from fruit is different?

[@kotenoklelu3471]

It has fiber, also you don't overconsume it
