- Omega-6 Apocalypse: From Heart Disease to Cancer and Macular Degeneration, Are Seed Oil Excesses the Unifying Mechanism?
Over the past two hundred years, we’ve witnessed the evolution of pandemics of chronic degenerative, metabolic, and noncommunicable disease (NCD). Ample evidence supports the conclusion that coronary heart disease, cancers, type 2 diabetes, obesity, age-related macular degeneration (AMD), and metabolic syndrome, among other chronic diseases, have risen from
medical rarities to the most common causes of chronic disease and causes of death. Whereas the top three causes of death in the year 1900 were all infectious, by year 2000, seven of the top ten causes of death were secondary to chronic NCD. During the same time frame, we’ve witnessed industrially produced seed oils, rich in omega-6 fatty acids, elevate to occupy up to a
third of human consumption, or more. Such oils rarely existed anywhere prior to the American Civil War, globally. Virtually all chronic degenerative diseases of civilization have in common one primary metabolic defect, namely, mitochondrial dysfunction. Could omega-6 rich seed oils, consumed to excess, be the common precipitating factor through multiple mechanisms, including prooxidative and proinflammatory pathways, cytotoxicity, mutagenicity, and genotoxicity? The evidence is compelling.
Difficult to avoid. It's safe to assume all restaurant food is cooked in the cheapest Vegetable Oils. If you eat out regularly, like lunch at work etc, you are getting daily doses of these poisons.
Order grilled steak at nice joints or simple egg preparations where available.
Meal prep.
Wasn't that easy?

I have been slowly getting away from vegetable oils and rendering my own beef fat. Daughter is allergic to pork and husband is allergic to dairy, makes my life interesting. It’s hard going against all that brainwashing that was done about fat, especially animal fat. I’m actually loosing my stomach fat now.
After 15 years of KETO, 20 months ago I stopped eating plants. I feel absolutely great!
@@carlameaders4352 Hi. Ah, you hang in there "momma"; sounds like you are a fantastic Mom.
I am in my 50's and yes, it is so hard to think it is ok to eat the fat of an animal, mammal or fish. I mean these animals have livers, etc., etc. I eat 1/2 the time vegetarian, only because I'm too lazy to prep. meat.
Please remember another MIRACULOUS Fat is Coconut or it's biochem name, Medium-Chain Fatty Acid. Where the majority of things we eat from plants to meat are Long-Chain, and require Insulin; MCFA's Do NOT require insulin and instead are converted to "ketones".
- Clean fuel for the brain especially. Coconut oil, (organic, pls.), NEVER goes Rancid, hence the problem with the Omega-6s, so-called Vegetable oils [industrial oils].
These cheap oils are cheaper for a reason. They are junk and go rancid (even olive oil is mostly Long-Chain), and it to goes rancid with that little bit of air in the bottle before it is even opened. Best wishes.
Starry Night I did not know that about coconut oil. I am going to try to add more of it my food prep. Maybe if I do it slow enough, my family won’t notice 🙄👍
Thanks for motivating me even more to a healthier diet. It is almost criminal that the processed food industry continues to offer such unhealthy foods.
It should also be criminal people are eating that food..
Even diabetes education today had lower carbs but not wanting sat fat, want the veg oils
It is criminal, they know what they are doing
Nobody ever claimed that processed foods are healthy. The phrase "empty calories" has been around for ages. The switch from saturated fats to vegetable oils only reduced heart disease rates. It does not change the fact that all refined fats are devoid of nutrients & fiber. They are 100% pure fat, the highest density calories you can consume.
The problem is simply what is taken out while refining, the fiber, minerals, vitamins etc.
@@nobodynowhere5213 You have some confusion regarding "vegetable oils" and "fiber" you should read Uffe Ravnskov at ravnskov.nu on the Lipid Hypothesis. and Konstantin Monastyrsky at gutsense.org/fiber-menace/what-is-so-menacing-about-fiber.
This is one of the best presentations I've ever seen
Man, if you want a dose of hard core science about modern diets, this is it. Fantastic lecture. Thank you. Just say no to PUFA.
Wonderful presentstion
Study Dr Ray Peat. He is a biologist and has been saying no PUFA’s, not even omega-3, probably the longest out of anyone who’s still alive today. Omega-3 unfortunately suffers the same ultimate faith as omega-6 once it is taken up by our cells. Be warned, his diet is quite chocking.
Load of boring right wing lies, designed to make people eat more meat and fish pills. There is still no evidence that PUFA causes inflammation, and even if you feed people arachidonic it does nothing because it's enzyme limited. There are two limited enzyme steps to make pro-inflammatory substances out of PUFA. Omega 3 will be seen later as more like a vitamin, where you need a certain amount, but larger amounts don't really do anything. We have only small amounts in our bodies, and these so-called "scientists" are scrambling for an explanation of how we would have got so many omega3s in the past. Also they never show any studies where your inflammation decreases when you eat more omega3, unless you were terribly deficient in the first instance. This Western A Price crap has been going on for a long time, and the orthodoxy hasn't budged from high carb, low fat. Not saying the orthodoxy is correct, but the orthodoxy is backed by diet science as well. In the future, I predict that we will see diet as a minor influence of health. Major influencers are artificial lighting, sleep deprivation, body fat, fried fat, genetics, exercise, aging. This guy is just showing bar charts and hoping you will think correlation is causality.
" Just say no to PUFA." You mean essential fatty acids? You die without them :)
@@jesustoldyoutogiveallyourm4880 Omega 6 actually lowers inflammation
"Omega-6 fatty acids do not promote low-grade inflammation"
This research supports earlier findings. Clinical trials have shown that even a very high intake of linoleic acid does not increase inflammatory responses, nor has a significant impact on arachidonic acid levels. In the human body, linoleic acid is converted into various compounds that alleviate inflammation. It is worth noting that arachidonic acid, too, is converted into inflammation-alleviating compounds, and not just into inflammation-promoting ones. In the light of these facts, it can be concluded that the theory according to which linoleic acid promotes low-grade inflammation by increasing the body's arachidonic acid levels, is too simplified.
This is sensational!!!!
This can save millions of lives.
Maximilian Eberl unfortunately most people will not hear this info, and some that hear will not believe it, and then of those that believe it, some will eat junk anyway. “Everything in moderation” you know.
Everyone knows junk foods are bad for them, just like everyone knows meat is bad for them, they still eat it.
nobody nowhere “everyone knows meat is bad?” Good luck with your life.
@@glorioskiola Exactly, you know it. But you refuse it. Even if we have all the studies, and the whole medical community pretty much agrees that you need to limit meat intake. Still, you just choose to believe what you want. Thats the problem. Not that we dont have information.
@@nobodynowhere5213 Medical community doesn't agree. Where is your source? What are the studies? annals.org/aim/fullarticle/2752328/unprocessed-red-meat-processed-meat-consumption-dietary-guideline-recommendations-from Check this.
We are not consuming ENOUGH of red meat. Forget all the garbage pseudo science.
Referring to the chart at minute 9:
The fatty acid distribution in lard is strongly influenced by the fatty acid distribution in the feed provided to the pig. In modern pigs, the main sources are soybean oil and cottonseed oil.
Pigs fed coconut on Pacific islands have a good fatty acid mix in their fat. Pigs fed soy and corn, with additions like stale junk foods such as corn chips fried in corn or cottonseed oil, not so much.
That would explain why when I cook bacon sometimes the grease is liquid at room temperature and other sources of bacon the grease is solid at room temperature.
I really appreciated this video. In 1980s my husband had cancer, and we sought to find healthier eating habits. We switched to extra virgin olive oil, already used only butter, and did not tend to eat packaged snacks. We did eat quite a bit of high quality beef, and began to increase our fish intake. I threw out the Crisco, and we had far less pie crust, but some. The cancer recurred, and he died in 2007, so I believe our dietary changes helped him to overcome cancer for 22 years. A friend of his had a heart stint, was a hearty healthy person for the main, but his doctor insisted that he switch to margarine, though his wife felt it was a big mistake. He continued with problems, died some years later. I now take no prescriptions, no pain pills, and with sleep and supplements believe I have overcome fibromyalgia, widespread pain, severe headaches (no doubt migraine but no migraine med worked), sore joints etc. I have visual aura without pain -- if I eat MSG, soy (that is now in all processed it seems), or if I eat nitrates, high tyrosine foods (includes certain items, aged cheeses, fermented foods, overripe fruits, food stored too long, also caffeine if overmuch -- eating smaller amounts of these usually is okay, some I must avoid). I was past 80 when the aura without headache first occurred, my ophthalmologist worked me in next morning, and it turned out he had recently suffered from the same visual sparkling stars and traced it to apple cider.
Nobody dies of cancer,
Cancer cells are specialised mutated cells that your BODY creates to deal with tumours and toxins
Eat meat especially organ meat and that is the cure. They body takes care of itself just give it the right food - aka mostly carnivore diet
My mum died of "cancer", when in reality she died of starvation as she got pumped full of drugs that caused massive loss of appetite and weight loss
Live according to gov’t recommendations. Listen to what they say and do the EXACT OPPOSITE and live long.
Em Jay Regarding health you brainless sheep. This video is about health, init? Degenerate. Go eat your heart healthy oreo cereals.
@Em Jay Two of those are laws, but in the main I would agree with UniQ on the advice bit :)
Depends on what it is
Search for facts not just going against whatever government says just for the sake of it or thinking it’s the simplest route
Be careful, speaking publicly like that, they might employ reverse physiology and it will back-fire.
@This Guy According to recent evidence, necomers of orange and white are encouraged by the police's apathetic behaviour to smoke crack, cannabis etc (no posession though) , drive on the wrong side of the road (for one year until they apply for a UK license) and have unprotective sex (non consensual, using force, with minors) unless you have had your head in the sand for at least 10 years .... So UniQ is pretty precise with his health guide ...
This information is the answer I have searched for since 1996 when I started to ask my doctor about ATP.
Thank You!
It's part of the answer. Disregulated iron is another big problem. Read Jym Moon's book Iron: The Most Toxic Metal.
They lie about anemia, it's not caused by iron deficiency, it's usually vitamin A deficiency.
Alex Blake , Thank You! Good info.
Alex Blake eat eggs, liver and benifit from it ✌🏼
ray peat has been saying this for 40 years it amazes me you havent found anything since 96
Alex Blake vitamin A deficiency? Could you summarise ?
So the question becomes: After changing over to animal-based fats, and removing all veggie oils as stringently as possible; with at least 30+ pounds of high omega 6 adipose fat on your body: how long will it take to get rid of most of this dangerous fat???? That is the big question for those of us already having serious metabolic problems.
Dr. K gets to the point quickly and forcefully, no ums and ahs - info crucial to those wanting to eat healthy. BEST health video I've ever seen!
This fits so incredibly well with Thomas Seyfrieds work, and I am convinced that man deserves a nobel prize. Well done and well researched.
seyfrieds work has long been shown to be false
Dr. Knobbe has done more to advance my understanding of nutrition, and of preventing chronic disease therewith, than *anyone* else. I went LCHF/IF in mid 2019 and got great results on weight, energy level and biomarkers, but after a drop in income, I tried to save $$ by eating a lot of cheap fatty pork and chicken, whose high linoleic acid content probably bioaccumulated over the following year. Weight maintenance started to crumble and ultimately I regained most of the 30# I had lost off my 2018 peak, despite still mostly sticking to a narrow eating window and a decent food selection. Now that I've been strongly avoiding PUFA for almost a year and emphasizing SFA, I'm starting to see the needle move back in the right direction. The key was recognizing that the omega-6 is hidden in so many foods, and even in the fat of monogastric animals fed corn and soy. No mas.
Thank you so very much. One of the VERY best vids on CZcams
Has anyone wondered why we have an explosion of children with ADHD, aspergers, autism, asthma, allergies and depression? How many of these young mothers are addicted to cheap, processed, vegetable oil rich gargabe? And how many of these mothers carried them with faulty metabolism resulting in an epigenetic timb bomb for these children?
Many causes like delayed motherhood and fatherhood. Not only diet. West civilisation became a crap.
More years of poor diet and pharmaceuticals such as antibiotics and the OCP, Accutane, etc.
Hence FUBAR
... beyond all recognition.
Over 10% of US citizens are addicted to fentanyl, 10 more powerful than morphine... And many other addictions. I thought that Russia is a downfall of the humankind...
True..also toxicity and vaccines
@@quandmeme9970 Nonsense. The number of fentanyl addicts is NOT 10% of the population.
I think the scariest part of this, is how much of these PUFAs are being incorporated into the cells of a foetus if a pregnant woman is consuming a large amount of vegetable oils. It is one thing to be born healthy and gradually accumulate PUFAs in your cells, but if children are being born with them, and are then fed a diet during their childhood high in PUFAs (for example, formula, which is high in soybean oil), could this be the underlying cause of childhood obesity and diabetes?
Highly probable?
The changing causes of death described here relate to several factors beyond diet. Some of the difference is simply that we are now preventing most of the causes of death related to communicable diseases (such as smallpox). Another is that improved health care & nutrition implies that people now live longer than before. Thus more of us are surviving to older ages, when cancer & heart disease become the dominant causes of death. We know heart disease occurred before the dietary transitions he describes. We know even our ancestors thousands of years ago had these diseases. The Ice Man, frozen in a glacier in the Alps, had calcified cholesterol built up in his arteries, but he didn't die of coronary heart disease--he died of an arrow in his back. That's a major reason why fewer past people died differently. Violence & communicable disease were more common, so they died that way first. I'm not saying that our modern diet is harmless. I think he's right, to a degree, but his explanation is at least a little less important than he claims.
The comparison against cigarettes is disingenuous because it uses only 1 harmful component of cigarettes & french fries, one of thousands contained in cigarettes.
@@paulroundy7220 Thank you for your well-reasoned comments here. The epidemiology surrounding PUFAs is pretty damning, and I consider them to be something to avoid, but I think the speaker was a little over the top.
@@paulroundy7220 hello? Did you see the deformed cellular components? I don't need epidemiology to see that one doesn't want that in his body
@@bluellamaslearnbeyondthele2456 I personally avoid those fats for similar reasons. My point is simply that the size of the impact on the population is inflated here. Part of the reason there is more cancer and heart disease is that people now survive long enough to have these issues more often.
100% agree. And let's not forget that some diseases, like specific cancers, were not yet discovered in the 1800's. This doesn't mean they didn't exist, we just didn't know how to diagnose them. What's more, if you take the first slides, I am sure that there are similar correlations with increases of sugar in our diets, or even cigarettes smoked (till the 1960's). So what's the real culprit? And why would there only be one? Most of these civilisation diseases are multi-factorial.
I became a carnivore because of omega 3 ratio to omega 6. add in sugar and plant toxins grass fed beef is all that’s left. the carnivore diet works so well because it Eliminates almost all toxins and then adds the most nutrient dense foods if organ meat is also eaten. Organic butter and eggs,ancient salt and fatty fish that’s it. Don’t eat the seeds of plants don’t eat the oil from plant seeds and consider what each mouthful of food will do to your insulin levels also add the Randle cycle to the toxic way plant oils work on our body
sadly most eggs are grain fed even local farm stuff in my area. so I would consider cut eggs from diet and not throw off omega 3:omega 6 ratio
@@liyacarolyn6055 -- or find eggs from pasture-raised chickens, best if from the local farmers market. Or neighbors, or raise your own. Although most pastured chickens are fed some grain as a supplement, I look and ask and buy those who feed the least grain (non-GMO)

Watch your colon mate. Colon cells need butyric acid that is only provided by bacteria that feed on resistant starch. Have a sweet potato occasionally. That way you won't be out of keto so much
Butter, milk and cheese all contain butyric acid. I eat these all in their raw form and grain-free (God bless the Amish of Pennsylvania)
Fantastic lecture, thank you,it supports other research findings I looked at.
I already dropped these for half of the reason mentioned here, but learning more was really welcome
This video is awesomely informative. Thank you
Fantastic talk. Eye opener speach.
The introduction of Chlorine into the drinking supply was also a major factor in the development of coronary heart disease. This was noticed on autopsies done on deceased 20 year old American GIs in the Korean and Vietnam wars. These had advanced coronorary disease - probably attributed to the extremely high levels of chlorine put into their drinking water to counter the contaminated water supply Apparently, the water was virtually undrinkable.
Linking disease trends to diet change trends is always tricky. No coming back in this presentation is sugar consumption. One can also link these diseases to sugar increase or other trends. The beginning of the presentation is hence rather speculative. The link with unsaturated fats is uncommon, though, therefore interesting. With far extending consequences of thoughts about "healthy food". And the biochemical backing in the second half is quite convincing.
I'm downloading this and giving my doc a copy. Then I hope he'll be on the right track to offer real info to all his other patients. Marg and vegie oil out as from 3 years ago but still struggling to lose weight.
Giving up the veggie oils is a great step, but, maybe, you should give up those grains and vegetables that contain them as well. As I write this comment, I see on the right side of my CZcams screen a lot of recommendation for the carnivore diet and I see videos from people very knowledgeable about the subject that could help you understand it: L Amber O´Hearn, Mikhaila Peterson, Paul Saladino M.D. or look for the series: Low Carb.... such as Low Carb Down Under, Low Carb New Zealand, Low Carb Denver, etc. I hope you find the right answers.
Good first step. now drop carbohydrates from sugars and grains and your weight will fall off ...
Drop carbs and sugars. Don’t eat out. Cook your own foods and then most important of all - EXERCISE! Most people often overlook the last part.
I thought it was a given that intramyocellular lipids which cause insulin resistance (the precursor to most modern health problems) were made from lipid derivatives formed from PUFAs, long chain fatty acids broken down to form multiple saturated chains. These are also what constitute atherosclerotic plaque.
Cholestrol is merely a transport protein, it's what its carrying which matters. Trigclyerides produced by fructose is worthless because unlike butter it lacks fat soluble vitamins. You need to liberate stored fat to access these & their benefits.
I've got an uncle who would probably still be alive today if this video had been available 20 years ago when his wife put him on a vegetarian diet. The last few years after his heart attack, it has been tough to see him decline into a papery, wizened-looking shadow of his former self. The tragic part is that his wife genuinely thinks she was helping him, and will likely never change her mind regardless of any evidence presented to her.
Although we always seek the truth, I'm not sure in this instance that you should labour the point that she has, effectively killed her husband. Sometimes the truth is hard to bear...
Brilliant Presentation! Thanks For Posting!
Great video with much power packed important information. The chemistry information in the middle of the vid was good but difficult to explain in simple terms. If infectious diseases had been knocked out in the early 1800's, that era would have been the longest living in all of history including the present time.
Makes you wonder how long our healthy lifespan would be if we combined healthful ancestral diets with modern medicine.
So the real cause is modern medicine, pills, and processed foods. The more we listen to their guidelines the sicker we got. I'm glad we are getting back to fats and meats.
No. He presented ZERO evidence that modern medicine or pills were the problem. He's pointing out the dangers of industrial seed oils.
No. The problem is specifically omega-6 fatty acids, which come primarily from seed oils. Omega-3 fatty acids are good for you and have been repeatedly shown to have a moderate effect on reducing risk of heart attacks. You need to take in a lot of them, 4g per day, and certain ones DHA and EPA for example have been specifically shown to be beneficial in lower doses. Most natural fats are honestly good for you. The issue is total calories in vs total calories out.
However, the food industry does fail us. They add tons of extra sugar and salt. While salt improves self life, they add both of these primarily to make food taste better, and in quantities far in excess of what we need. We end up eating far more calories than we need. In addition, some cooking processes remove key nutrients from foods. Sometimes, they add them back in, but often studies have shown you absorb more from natural sources than supplemented vitamins and minerals. Processed foods are a convenience, but your best bet is always to prepare food from your own ingredients in your own home, then eat reasonable portion sizes.
As far as "listening to guidelines", no. People didn't listen to guidelines, they exaggerated them, and created fad diets far outside the realm of what the studies actually showed. The avoid fat at all costs fad of the 80s was wrong. The avoid cholesterol at all costs was also wrong. Now, it's avoid sugar at all costs with things like keto. Again, wrong for all but a very select few like children with certain types of epilepsy. We're omnivorous creatures. We're meant to eat a wide variety of foods and lots of plants and to supplement that with meat occasionally. Some people need specific diets because they have certain health problems. See a registered dietitian and they'll get your sorted out.
But playing the victim and claiming "Big [blah blah]" sold you out for money (those evil corporations), is a fallacy. It's a lie we tell ourselves to absolve ourselves of our responsibility for our bad choices. Doctors have been telling us for centuries how to eat right and exercise. That's on us to do it.
@@kma3647 why can't we just filter, separate, centrifuge out those Ω6s?
@@kma3647 I meant to say, they could do it, but they won't. Therefore, it is the industry that sucks.
Also you advocate dha and epa, which there's none of in any seeds
@@kma3647 No. We ate meat for 250,000 yrs. And seasonal berries. Last 10,000 yrs we have eaten more plants. Last few hundred years, we a have eaten processed rubbish. Even modern primitive tribes around the world still eat mostly meat (or exclusively). And they are mostly disease free - including mental health diseases. There is no portion size issues when you don't eat carbs. No one has ever need a doctors diet advice if eating exclusively wild caught game and fish. Most doctors are as unhealthy as the general populations they serve, despite having high pay and, usually, a privileged backgrounds.
It's too much for me. All needed to hear. What I already knew about vegetable oil and how horrible it is for you.
It does not matter what oil it is. The problem is simply the amount of added fats in processed foods. Its simply what is called "empty calories". When you consume 100% pure fats like oils & butters. You miss all the vitamins, minerals, fiber etc. that was removed from it.
What you want to do, is eat whole foods. so you will get the Omega 6 (essential fatty acid, you need it every day) and the vitamins, minerals & fiber. For example, sunflower seeds are an excellent omega 6 source. As they are high in Vitamin E, something that is actually quite hard to get. 50g of sunflower seed per day covers your Omega 6 & Vitamin E needs per day.
If this is true, which I have no doubt it is, then there needs to be legislation preventing the sale for consumption of such products or at least a toxicity warning on them.

So animal fat is better. Butter better.
This has always been the case. Studies have proved this over the decades but big Agriculture and big Pharma win the day and have brainwashed us in beleiving this crap is good for us.
@@briancorcoran9888 coconut oil even better.
@@briancorcoran9888 Not all animal fats are good. For example fats from factory farm pork or chicken has also alot of omega 6. Beef fat is ok, but most people are eating chicken and pork... I eat only chicken breast and no pork at all. Beef fat is mainly saturated and mono saturated fat even if it's from factory farming..
S Payne anything raised in corporate feedlots are going to be unhealthy. Beef fed in feedlots will have an unhealthy ratio of omega 6 to omega 3s. Cows should be raised on grass for the 6:3 ratio to be correct.
@@badlandskid They will have worse omega 3 to 6 ratio. But this ratio doesn't matter too much, because overall content of PUFA fats in beef fat is very low anyway.. For example 100g of ground beef with 20% fat has only 0.5 g of PUFA fats. So even if all this PUFA fat (500mg) is omega 6 it doesn't matter. Because if you eat like 200g burger it is just 1000mg of omega 6 fat.. So as you can see this is in comparison with most foods negligible amount of omega 6... Btw keep in mind that this is 20% fat content. If you simply discharge all melted fat from this burger. You will have almost zero omega 6 fats in your beef... Simply eating factory farm beef is not a problem. Just eat some sardines/mackerel here and there and avoid foods with really high omega 6 content like vegetable oils, pork, chicken fats, peanuts etc..
Simple way notice differences is put oils under the sun and wait. Oxidation occur clearly in unsaturated oils.
If *normal* cardiolipin's acyl chains are normally comprised of linoleic acid (PUFA), and its pathological remodeling occurs when it shifts to a AA or DHA species, then why would more dietary linoleic acid from seed oils be blamed for the pathological remodeling of cardiolipin? Because linoleic acid increases the overall oxidative load of the organism, thus depleting antioxidant factors that would otherwise be available to protect cardiolipin from oxidative damage?
Started researching last year & started eating carnivore ...my supplements are caviar & fish oil....after a year where my energy is sooooo much better ...have been noticing improvements to aging concerns like amd, stiffness, soft skin, others .....

At what age did those people die from those disease in the past compared to what age they are dying from those same diseases now?
In 1900s age expectancy was 50, now it's 80.
So if you age-adjust, the mortality rates from CHD/Cancer have actually fallen, yet there are still some valid points made by this video, like why are people getting obese or why more and more people have insulin resistance/diabetes.
Jan .S this is wrong. The average age accounts for infant mortality which greatly skews old data and is what people use to promote this idea that we live healthier and longer. If you remove the infant mortality rate and diseases which we have vaccines for the average life expectancy was in the 70s which is not far off from today’s global average. If you actually adjust their population to be representative of what we have today it is not very far off at all. Then one has to ask are we actually living longer or do we just have a longer life span, I would argue that we are not truly living longer as more people are becoming immobile, too frail or weak to actually function yet are barely kept alive for decades through modern medicine.
@@jan.s8053 Wrong. The average life span was heavily influenced by the fact that so many children died before age five. If you lived to the age of ten then your life expectancy was roughly the same as it is now. Medicine has improved dramatically for bacterial infections not for chronic diseases which mostly didn't exist then.
Mr. Ogger151 Did you watch the presentation? Most of these diseases did not exist at all or were very rare, thus people didn't die from them. At the time, bacterial diseases were the primary cause of death. Those are gone for the most part, but modern diseases, cancer, heart disease, diabetes, etc. have more than replaced them due to the trifecta of vegetable oils, sugar, and grains. This presentation makes the case well that vegetable (actually seed) oils are the primary villain.
Everyone should watch this and understand what they are doing to their bodies.
This is purely misinformation. Its not the type of added fat that is the problem. Its simply that its added fat. Pure 100% fat, highest possible amount of calories. And no vitamins, minerals etc. This is what we call "empty calories", where you eat a lot of calories. But do not get nutrients.
Omega 6 is anti-inflammatory essential fatty acid, you need to eat it or you will die. But eat it from whole food sources, like seeds or nuts. This way you will get all the nutrients & fiber also.
@@nobodynowhere5213 How is fat "added calories" when most of the vitamins humans need are fat-soluble? Fat isn't empty calories, it's the exact opposite. Fat is nutrient dense (unless it's veg oils) and carbs are the empty calories.
@@fedegroxo guy is a fucking idiot.
Does burning fat on a keto diet release this toxin from the adipose? If so, does it flush out or reabsorb? I cured my Chronic Fatigue/Fibromyalgia mitochondrial dysfunction in six weeks of keto (no seed oils). Maybe I should say I erased the symptoms. I burned a good bit of fat. It didn’t seem detrimental.
Amazing presentation, thanks.
One specific takeaway: cook with coconut oil.
Oil is 1 of the most unhealthy foods anybody can consume, up there with veggies & star fruit & other toxic $hit like Basil & others ~ we have organs 2 filter out a lot of krap, but oil will wreck U even worse than booze. If U want slimy, get it from fats.

Poor food and water are, I think the main transmitter of these infections( killed my mom five years ago). So the response, in those days is that the processing of food and purifying of water would make it "healthier and safer" to eat and drink. At least this is what I think. Incidentally I read that infections causing death is on the upswing because of resistant bacteria again.
@@jamesmacleod9382 Thanks for that. I think you are wrong.
Processing food in no way addresses that issue. Cholera, the cause, was eliminated by water chlorination. Antibiotics also ended death by infection in general.
Where does Olive oil fall in your stats?? Since this food has been used for thousands of years? I use most exclusively, as well as butter, which you discussed. Thank you so much, reinforced what I have been saying for years. Soy too is carcinogenic. I believe.
It has a non-trivial amount of omega-6 fatty acids, but less than all other seed oils. Yet, the epidemiology around olive oil consumption is uniformly positive, perhaps due to other compounds found in it. I'm not dropping it from my diet.

NEITHER am I, thank you for your information. Too many ppl feel it is just the way it is... I rebel.
It makes complete sense however I can tell you that when I started with a keto diet 12 years ago I wasn't aware of the seed oil controversy. I at lots of omega 6 fats. Oils and from chicken, pork and beef. I did this for years. I lost 45 pounds, blood sugars completely normalized and organ fat ( confirmed by ultra sound and CT) was gone. So I am skeptical about the weight gain, insulin resistance aspect. My health improved greatly but I continued to eat high omega 6.
Suppose one is born in our current millennium:
>> is regularly exposed, right from the beginning of their life (potentially parents' lives too) to oxidised polyunsaturates;
>> then proceeds to accumulate these fats in their tissue;
>> as they get increasingly sickened at a more and more alarming rate, become aware of the issues;
>> decide to change their way to regain health.
>> They enter a fat-adapted state after multiple months of radically shifted eating patterns.
>> As their body fat stores are used up, they have to be processed by the mitochondria;
>> Are the mitochondria overwhelmed?
>> Otherwise, does the body resist / are there mechanisms to prevent stores from being lost too rapidly;
>> which would create a particularly long period of restricted energy metabolism (sounds like could be 6 years?)
>> can a 'fat hunger' arise in such scenario (that's addressed - with consumption of saturate-rich intake);
>> such that persistent fat stores remain stable (body refrains from accessing them)
>> while ongoing dietary intake is relied primarily upon for energy metabolism?
I am extremely disappointed that no time is given in the beginning to questions such as increase in reporting vs actual real increase of disease prevalence. This is not a trivial issue. The way the data is presented here leaves me needing to do a dozen hours of research to verify.
Don't ever forget that the American heart association is brought to you by Crisco and funded by pharaceutical companies.
Thanks for sharing the insights. ..
it needs to be pointed out that infectious disease deaths went down tremndously thanks to medical advancements and sanitary practices. as such, other causes therefore took a larger part of the pie in all cause mortality.
Amazing info, thanks!
I am glad you illustrated what exactly is causing the problem, because Omega 6 is an essential fatty acid which our bodies need. If you get Omega 6 from whole foods like raw sunflower seeds, raw pumpkin seeds, avocados etc. it is healthy.
Fabulous. Brilliant lecture. Thank you
It is weird because here in France we have the opposite approach. We eat everything and honestly, there is obesity among the poorest but in Paris everyone is slim. We walk a lot.
Great lecture. Loved it. Thanks so much... ;D
Deep stuff. I love it!
I thnk this is why both keto and veganism appear to work, even though they are very different. Going away from processed good ie oils and high fructose corn syrup will resolve most health issues people have.
Thank you for covering seed oils skyrocketing heart disease.
How can governments and health organisations ignore all this? Probably the environment is more important than our health, as that can be solved with medicines from their sponsors...
Amazing information. Thank you!
Excellent. How do we get FDA, USDA et all to label these oils as noxious and restaurants to list what they use to fry the food on their menus.
Well, if you are U.S Citizen, you can start a movement to change de FDA so that it becomes a part of the Department of Health rather than the Department of Agriculture. That would be a great start.
is there any studies with high O3 consomption instead of high O6 ? Because O3 are even less stable than O6, we should expect slightly more oxidative damages, right ?
The study focused on Omega 6 fats for good reasons. Paracelsus dictum "The Dose Makes the Poison." Omega 3 fats, which are considered anti-inflammatory, are consumed at much lower amounts. Omega 6 fats are consumed at massive doses from vegetable oils. Over 9% of US consumer adipose tissue is Omega 6 linoleic acid which can't be burned for fuel.
Macular degeneration is a terrible scourge. Erectile dysfunction is correlated, and hits many more men, at an earlier age, than AMD. While Chris is an eye doctor, he would be doing a great service, and growing his audience and supporters by leaps and bounds, if he tied in the effects of these unhealthy oils on erectile function.
Great presentation. I would have liked to see how those disease would be affected by age. In 1900 the average of age of death was 44, today is 83. I would love to see this compaired to today up to that age to separate the real differences in death for the same age grouups.
Tom Watson I think if you take infection related death out then your concern is addressed
@@jonathanoverton1710 You make a good point. Unfortunately, the primary causes of death today are typically developed at a much older age. Second, we diagnose death much more accurately today than in the past. We also keep accurate records, compaired to 1900 when most people did not have birth certificates and most deaths where not recorded. Thank you for your response.
Avocado OIl isn't listed on the chart, is it bad as well?
32:15 the graph would be more indicative of what is going on with the average American if left side was Heart Disease/1.000.000 instead of the raw number because of the population development (and it would be easier to see just how strong the correlation is)

Excellent talk, thank you.
Disappointed that even olive oil too high LA. Love mah garlic-infused olive oil. :(
LA is essential fatty acid. And its good for you. The inflammatory Omega 6 is AA = Arachidonic acid. Thats what you get from animal foods.
The whole Omega 6 theory is based on this, your body converts LA to AA. So they though that eating lots of LA would lead to lots of inflammatory AA. But it does not.
The opposite was true, higher LA levers correlated with lower levels of inflammatory markets.
"Omega-6 fatty acids do not promote low-grade inflammation
"
This research supports earlier findings. Clinical trials have shown that even a very high intake of linoleic acid does not increase inflammatory responses, nor has a significant impact on arachidonic acid levels. In the human body, linoleic acid is converted into various compounds that alleviate inflammation. It is worth noting that arachidonic acid, too, is converted into inflammation-alleviating compounds, and not just into inflammation-promoting ones. In the light of these facts, it can be concluded that the theory according to which linoleic acid promotes low-grade inflammation by increasing the body's arachidonic acid levels, is too simplified.
The problem with oils, is the same as with any added fats. Its the highest density caloric food you can possible consume. 1g = 9cal. Pure 100% fat. Thats why its problematic, that processed foods are full of added fat. People get fat, people get sick.
Dont consume processed refined fats or butters. Eat your fats as whole foods, like seeds & nuts. Personally, i eat 50g of sunflower seeds every day to get my LA requirements met. Its an essential fatty acids, you need to eat around 17g of it per day.
Now I know why everyone is dieing
How can you explain that several billion Asian people have existed on a diet of rice (carbohydrate) and soybean oil (omega 6) without obesity or cardiovascular disease. I'm not an expert but my time living in Asia gave me a good chance to observe.
Brown Rice and organic soybeans, about 18% PUFA. Add fatty fish to it and its omega-3 mitigates the detrimental effects of omega-6, if enough!
When true science *demolishes* all of the garbage epidemiology we've been fed for years. Amazing presentation.
Brilliant. Thank you!
So how do we clear these oils from our body? You said they have a half-life of 2 years in our cell membranes. Please say it ain't so. Can we get them out of our membranes quickly?
I am asking myself the same question! Periodical fasting will of course burn off the omega-6 in fat tissues. But the rest? Faster metabolism and intake of more of the worlds most stabel fats, saturated and monosaturated. Avoiding all factory fed meat as it is often "finished" with grains which contain soybean fats, 18% omega-6, which end up in the animals tissues.
@@stenbjorsell7054 What makes you think that fasting will preferentially burn off omega-6? They might be resistant to fatty acid metabolism, for all we know, particularly if oxidized.
@@incognitotorpedo42
I fasted for 5 days in a row, Mo-Fri, for 3 weeks. Energy levels through the roof day late day 2 or day 3. Hence metabolism high. I lost in total 12 kgs and I guess some omega 6 tissue fat was in that, but I cannot be sure. There may be rat studies showing if certain fats are burned preferentially. Guessing the bad ones go first!
I found a study that showed something very interesting in hiw to safeguard from bad effects of omega6!
Long before omega-6 in our cell membranes are replaced with (marine!) omega3, omega 3 (o3) protects us from the damage of omega-6! O3 activates anti-inflammatory mechanisms. O3 reduces adhesion molecules in blood vessels reducing atherosclerosis. 40% reduction in atherosclerosis comparing o6:03 1:3 to 4:1. Compare the 40% risk reduction to popular statins that show no difference in heart attack risk unless you had a heart attack before! Lots more. All the claims are referenced to studies.

@@muchasalud2011 What do you mean by the brutal aspect of excretion of plant anti nutrients?
This totally explains how "plant based" absolutely must be low fat to be healthy and why many of us who have reverted to "animal" based are doing so well in spite of very high fat levels. I'm still not convinced that sugar and refined flour are not equally damaging as Omega-6 if not even synergists. Glucose is just as damaging to proteins as Omega-6s are to phospholipids. You NEED proteins (enzymes, complex 1 - 5 etc) in their native state or they don't work. Imagine how your mitochondria function if the membranes are leaky and the proteins are denatured and non functional...… Leaky membranes is just wasting energy. Denatured proteins stop metabolism entirely.
He pointed out towards the end of the presentation that processed foods contributed to damage caused by pufa's.
Very interesting. Thank you.
Summary @28:58
Omega 6 is like crabs in a bucket. A few crabs have little problem going about their business Get too many and they become their own problem
Omega 6 is not a problem. The theory did not work.
LA = Linolenic acid you get from plants is converted into AA = Arachidonic acid in your body. This is the form of omega 6 you get from animal foods, and this is the form that promotes inflammation. The theory was that consuming high amounts of LA would lead to high levels of AA in the body. It did not. Instead, studies showed that high levels of LA correlated with low levels of inflammation. So omega 6 is anti inflammatory. Its an essential fatty acid, you need to consume around 17g of it per day.
😳 17 grams!! 😬 sounds like the fast track to arthritis 4-5 grams of omega 6 is plenty
One variable that hasn't been considered is the life expectancy in the 1880s vs today (ie. an older population and higher chronic disease rates). Not disputing the main conclusion of this video. Another consideration is the divergence of the lines near the very end where heart disease decreases despite higher PUFA consumption (less smoking, less meat?).
Wow! That was amazing.
I'm sympathetic to reexamining modern diets, but his chart at around 32:00 is blatant chart crime, not a "remarkable correlation." Good grief.
Seed oils are in everything but if a person decides to make their self healthy it is possible!!!👏🏼👍🏼👏🏼👍🏼👏🏼👍🏼
I follow Ray Peat's work regularly so this is not really surprising to me. But even for a new person, this should be fairly easy to follow. Just from a biological perspective, no mammalian organism has unsaturated fatty acids to any significant degree in their adipose tissues. Whenever a mammal is eating another mammal, they are getting mostly a mixture of saturated fat. When a mammal eats carbohydrate, the glucose enters the fatty acid conversion cycle and produces saturated fat. So whether you eat sugar or fat, a human's normal diet is always highly saturated.
Thank You!
How well could we diagnose heart disease back then?
Before antibiotics and vaccines, people did die mainly from infectious disease.
The average lifespan is longer, so you will find a higher incidence of deaths from degenerative diseases.
Yes, I think processed foods are bad, but there seems to be a lot of holes in this.
What did people die of before infectious diseases though?
Old age. What did they eat. Fat abs animals for the most part.
Wow. Was my comment removed because I made a reference to a company that is supporting ancestral diet?
Beatifully put together
Can you share your resources for lipid peroxidation
Fascinating but I was not wholly persuaded by the statistics as presented. There was no mention of controlling for age at death in historical data. If people are dying first of malnutrition, workplace accidents and childbirth, heart disease etc never becomes an issue. Secondly the graphs etc skated carefully around olive oil. This forms a culinary staple for very many cultures whose data would form part of global statistics. It has been in use much longer than butter. It is quite high in Omega 6. So I suspect this analysis, like so much dietary advice, is not the whole story.
I think it is a bit disingenuous to include AMD in your longitudinal data to 1885...you know that AMD strikes those over 80. That age was a rarity until about 1960. As the cohort swells, so the number of AMD cases grows. Lipofuscin may fit your model, robbing the retinal mitochondria of energy, so chemotactic factors are released..
This is a game changer, if he's right about the keto.
FUBAR is an US military slang anacronym similar to SNAFU, not german. The clean version is "Fouled Up beyond All Recognition". Both FUBAR and SNAFU are from WW2.
I think it might have been a Saving Private Ryan reference.

Great lecture answers a lot of questions about weight gain that challenges all modern thinking... calorie restriction...low carb... keto... even Lustings sugar rant. I have asked the question many times without a credible answer, where does the weight come from? Doesn't this violate the law of thermodynamics? how can you eat and drink 16oz and gain 20oz of weight after excreting it all? the answer is its electrical currents in your body at the molecular level, and as explained here you can short circuit the process and gain weight from energy deprivation. The other part to understanding this is the etheric currents outside of our body, this is much harder to prove but in short we're connected to the ether and cosmos in such a way as to "demodulate" receive energy and life force much like a radio receives a station... this is what drives all life in the cosmos and why ever living organism has a spinal cord or similar "antenna" structure to tap into it. that's a subject for another time...
