Seed Oils and Heart Disease Risk | Kevin Maki, PhD

Never in a million years did I think I would become a nutrition science nerd. Thanks Gil

I always wonder about a comparison with NO oil. No one ever seems to talk about that. Or what about extremely healthy and active people? Is there any justifiable reason for a healthy, whole foods plant based athlete to START consuming small amounts of, say, olive oil or canola oil to reduce ApoB?

I like to blame seed oils so I can keep eating my bacon cheeseburgers.

the best nutrition+nutrition education on the internet.. Most people are charging for this level of content. Way to be, Dr.

Gil, thank you for bringing those videos to us… Thank you Very Much!

Thanks you Gil for the extremely quantitative content, your videos are really oasis in the desert of YouTube’s nutrition content 🙏🏻 I would love to see the reste of this discussion, especially the omega-3/omega-6 ratio !

Always find clarity on your channel, thank you so much Dr. Gil!

Another informative and useful show! I don’t know which is better- the steady stream of the latest nutrition information or the first class education in scientific literacy that you consistently throw in along the way. Either way, thank you and keep going! This is the best nutrition channel on YouTube!

Thank you for providing access to the experts and data to bring much needed clarity to the internet fog on these health issues. I'm three months into cleaning up my diet after my doctor suggested statins as the only viable option. As of a month ago, I dropped my LDL 36% and I'm fairly confident my upcoming tests will reflect more improvement. I'm now monitoring ApoB and feel like a grounded plan for my health going forward. Your videos, more than any other source, have helped me focus on the important components of my diet and swerved me away from junk pop health advice.

Awesome informations and awesome editing! Thank you!

Excellent information as always. Thank you.

I love these interviews with real scientists. I've learned so much from these conversations. I could watch these all day.

Thanks for the info, doctor

Thanks a million Dr. Carvalho. We appreciate all you do to help us get better health. God bless you and your love ones.

Well, that seems like manipulation of the layman audience. "Omega-6 fatty acid doesn't cause inflammation" - ok, they don't. But higher amount of Omega-6 than Omega-3 inhibits the anti-inflammatory properties of Omega-3. So, technically, Omega-6 fatty acids don't cause inflammation. However, they do inhibit the anti-inflammatory properties of Omega-3, which leads to increase in inflammation from other inflammatory products that one consumes or risk factors that may cause inflammation. So, if we look at the big picture, not at testing the isolated variables in the experiment, we can say that higher Omega-6 fatty acids amount than Omega-3 do increase inflammation. Go figure. They don't cause inflammation but at the same time they do. But that's how science works. An isolated variable doesn't give us the whole picture. Science is complex and non-linear and literally any statement can be challenged by taking in out of context. However, it's not "fact checking" or myth-debunking, but creating a sensation on a scientific technicality.

This is a true scientific conversation. If all diet and even covid conversations were like this, imagine what a eutopia wed be living in.

👍👍- phenomenal vid. Thanks Gil.

Much respect for you quality work.

Something just does not sound right here during the first part of presenation, to suggest that Avacado Oil and Extra Virgin Olive oil is less healthy than Corn Oil, (minute 5:33) when we collectively know that corn oil is much more processed and refined,

Wow, fantastic interview! Thank you so much for making these and inviting such knowledgeable renowned scientists. Much appreciated
