How do we decide which fats and oils to consume? Ideally we want to minimize the omega 6 Linoleic Acid consumption as much as possible Let's take a closer look at the fatty acid concentrations of the most common fats in our diet.   – Links For This Episode:  Linoleic acid concentrations in fats and oils http://www.distributionkatrina.com/english/comparison-of-dietary-fats.html   Increase in Adipose Tissue Linoleic Acid of US Adults in the Last Half Century https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/labs/pmc/articles/PMC4642429   Composition of adipose tissue and marrow fat in humans by 1H NMR at 7 Tesla https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0022227520346733   Chia seed oil composition https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6627181   Sesame oil composition https://www.mdpi.com/2073-4395/9/12/801/htm   Connect with Zane: ReLyte Electrolytes by Redmond Real Salt: https://shop.redmond.life?afmc=Zane Follow me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/zanegriggsfitness Follow me on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/ZaneGriggs   QUICK EPISODE SUMMARY Let’s talk about fat The different types of fat we store in our body What we can learn from cultures that don’t eat a modern diet The risk of the different types of oil A look into what makes up the good oils Where PUFAs could be hiding in other oils  Why you shouldn’t trust the packaging How to minimize your exposure to PUFAs

The discussion over what aspect of our diet has been driving the escalation of metabolic disease over the last 100 years has been a confusing one full of contradictory information. It would be logical to look for a change in our diet associated with such a dramatic change in the health of a population There are both correlated evidence and dietary trials to support the theory that the increase in linoleic acid, provided by the introduction of PUFA processed oils into our diet, is the driver. In this episode of Hunger Hunt Feast, I want to share a collection of them to help clarify some of the confusion. -- Episode Specific Links:  Linoleic acid concentrations in fats and oils http://www.distributionkatrina.com/english/comparison-of-dietary-fats.html Increase in Adipose Tissue Linoleic Acid of US Adults in the Last Half-Century https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/labs/pmc/articles/PMC4642429/ Composition of adipose tissue and marrow fat in humans by 1H NMR at 7 Tesla https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0022227520346733 Diets could prevent many diseases https://www.researchgate.net/publication/10673140_Diets_could_prevent_many_diseases Corn Oil in Treatment of Ischemic Heart Disease https://ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2166702/ Linoleic acid causes greater weight gain than saturated fat without hypothalamic inflammation in the male mouse https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/27886622/#:~:text=the%20male%20mouse-,Linoleic%20acid%20causes%20greater%20weight%20gain%20than%20saturated%20fat%20without,doi%3A%2010.1016%2Fj Effects of fatty acids on mitochondria: implications for cell death https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/12206909/ Can linoleic acid contribute to coronary artery disease? https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/8192728/ Effects of linoleate-enriched and oleate-enriched diets in combination with alpha-tocopherol on the susceptibility of LDL and LDL subfractions to oxidative modification in humans https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/8148354/ Acrolein is a product of lipid peroxidation reaction https://www.jbc.org/article/S0021-9258(18)80708-6/fulltext#seccestitle90 The role of dietary oxidized cholesterol and oxidized fatty acids in the development of atherosclerosis https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/16270280/ Rapeseed oil and sunflower oil diets enhance platelet in vitro aggregation and thromboxane production in healthy men when compared with milk fat or habitual diets https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/1641826/ Stearoyl-CoA Desaturase-1 Is Associated with Insulin Resistance in Morbidly Obese Subjects https://link.springer.com/article/10.2119/molmed.2010.00078 Circulating levels of linoleic acid and HDL-cholesterol are major determinants of 4-hydroxynonenal protein adducts in patients with heart failure https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3909262/ Circulating levels of linoleic acid and HDL-cholesterol are major determinants of 4-hydroxynonenal protein adducts in patients with heart failure https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3909262/ Role of Physiological Levels of 4-Hydroxynonenal on Adipocyte Biology: Implications for Obesity and Metabolic Syndrome https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4038367/ “The Hateful Eight: Enemy Fats That Destroy Your Health - Dr. Cate.” Dr. Cate, 22 May 2020,  https://drcate.com/the-hateful-eight-enemy-fats-that-destroy-your-health/ Effects of diets enriched in linoleic acid and its peroxidation products on brain fatty acids, oxylipins, and aldehydes in mice https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/labs/pmc/articles/PMC6180905/ Strong increase in hydroxy fatty acids derived from linoleic acid in human low-density lipoproteins of atherosclerotic patients https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/9488997/ Brief episode of STZ-induced hyperglycemia produces cardiac abnormalities in rats fed a diet rich in n-6 PUFA https://journals.physiology.org/doi/full/10.1152/ajpheart.00480.2004?rfr_dat=cr_pub++0pubmed&url_ver=Z39.88-2003&rfr_id=ori%3Arid%3Acrossref.org Changes in Dietary Fat Intake Alter Plasma Levels of Oxidized Low-Density Lipoprotein and Lipoprotein(a) https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/9844997/ “Dr. Knobbe Presents, ‘Macular Degeneration - Preventable & Treatable - With an Ancestral Diet?’ at Weston A.

Welcome back to the Hunger Hunt Feast Podcast! In today’s episode, Zane talks with electrical engineer and author Tristan Scott!  Tristan is an electrical engineer whose passion for health developed from his struggle to recover from Post Concussive Syndrome and he found that an animal-based diet helped him reduce inflammation, but Tristan has taken his expertise even further. Listen in as Tristan talks about his book "Bitcoin and Beef" which he wrote to address the current problems with the increasing wealth gap and decreasing health stemming from an over-centralized system. In his book, he addresses the fallacies about a negative environmental impact of both the raising of beef and bitcoin mining.
