Ghee vs Butter
Ghee, a type of clarified butter, which is a fancy term for pure butterfat - while it has similar properties to regular butter, ghee is like an upgraded version with a richer taste, higher smoke point, deeper color, and more nutrients
Ghee and butter are made up of different components - Butter on its own is comprised of butterfat (churned from cream), water, and milk solids; Ghee, which is rendered from butter, is only made up of butterfat
Ghee also contains butyric acid, a short-chain fatty acid - butyric acid is an essential nutrient for the digestive system because it helps maintain healthy cells throughout the GI tract, and provides energy to the cells in your large intestine
Ghee is a rich source of the essential fat soluble vitamins: A, D, E, and K.
Ghee has a higher smoke point than most fats, with a smoke point of 450 F - By comparison, regular butter and coconut oil only have a smoke point of 350 F, while extra virgin olive oil has a smoke point of 320 F
Macadamias
Contain palmitoleic acid, which has been shown to be a major component of myelin, the fatty, protective coating around your neurons
This protects your long-term brain health, fending off neurodegenerative diseases and mental disorders
Coconut Oil vs Lard
The dominant fatty acid in coconut oil is lauric acid, which comprises about 50% of the total fat content
Lauric acid is most well-known for its antimicrobial properties, since it’s the precursor to monolaurin, a more powerful antimicrobial agent that is able to fight viruses and bacterial infections
When lauric acid is digested, enzymes within the digestive tract form the valuable type of monoglyceride called monolaurin
Study - Nutrition & Diabetes
Looked at the effects of lard and hydrogenated vegetable shortening on the development of high-fat diet-induced obesity in rats
Rats were fed ad libitum (as desired) for 14 weeks high-fat diets containing either high vegetable fat (HVF, 60 kcal% from vegetable shortening) or (2) high lard fat (HLF, 60 kcal% from lard)
Rats fed normal-fat (NF, 16 kcal% from vegetable shortening) diet served as control
Rats fed either of the two high-fat diets had higher energy intake, weight gain and fat accretion than rats fed normal-fat diet
However, rats fed the HLF diet consumed more calories and gained more weight and body fat with greater increases of 32% in total, 30% in visceral and 36% in subcutaneous fat mass, compared with rats fed the HVF diet
Higher visceral adiposity was positively correlated with serum insulin

Avocado Oil vs Vegetable Oil
Vegetable Oil
Polyunsaturated fats are the least stable fats as they have multiple binding sites exposed, making them particularly open to oxidation - lot’s of available spaces for the free radicals to enter and mess with the fat
They go rancid easily and oxidize quickly when heated - should be left in their natural and unrefined state
Monounsaturated are relatively stable in comparison to polyunsaturated fats. “Mono,” meaning one, indicates that there is one place for a free radical to enter
Aren’t very heat-stable and are likely to oxidize (but less likely to oxidize compared to polyunsaturated fats)
Avocado Oil - smoke point of 520 degrees F
Avocado oil & olive oil are high in a monounsaturated fat known as oleic acid:
Oleic acid regulates the activity of adrenoceptor signaling pathways which direct the adrenergic receptors (α- and β-adrenoceptors) that help regulate blood pressure
-------
Avocado oil is high in vitamin E and contains chlorophyll, a natural source of magnesium, which naturally removes heavy metals like mercury and lead from the liver, kidneys, brain and other organs
Avocados are one of only a few natural sources of the potent compound beta-sitosterol
This phytosterol positively impacts lipid and cholesterol levels in the body - beta-sitosterol may even inhibit cell division of cancerous cells

Thanks!!!
Watching you now 14mos, I'm 62, down 60lbs, and breaking personal records in the gym regularly!
Better yet all 5 major health problems ( b/p, bad cholesterol, fatty liver, pre-diabetic , acid reflux) gone!!
Zero big pharma junk but, herbs for days.
Thanks Brother and keep spreading the word and I'll keep passing your name at the gym.
PS, My health insurance wanted ID and a new picture, didn't think it was me! Lol!!
YAH, I am so motivated my your post ty
Dannie Carey this is awesome! So glad to hear your success story!
Ghee better than butter
Macadamia better than cashews
Roasted over raw
Coconut oil over Crisco
Avocado oil over vegetable oil
Sunflower seed butter over peanut butter
GeminieCricket awesome summary! Thx
Not roasted over raw. Sprouted raw over roasted.
@@alexiswinter6948 specifically:
Sprouted raw > (unsprouted raw ~ roasted)
I also guess this automatically means that sprouted raw nuts >> nut butters, which are always roasted
@@alexiswinter6948 roasted tastes better
Adrita lol me too
This video was super fun and interesting - thanks for all the work you put into all of your videos, Thomas!!
You are teaching me so many things and you have such a well played approach on getting the key points across. And I Don’t have to pay a dime. Super grateful and eager to learn. Keep em comin bro
He's always showing off his body though.
My local grocery store has grinders at the nut section and coffee also. You buy the nuts and pour them into the grinder and you get pure nut butter. No additives at all.
That's awesome!
Yep unfortunately many people dont have access to them.
The best grocery store in my city has this, too. They also have honey dispensers right next to the nut grinders. Bulk sections are amazing.
But if the nuts haven't been soaked..... don't you still have the phytic acid problem?
@@alancameron6937 all nuts sold are treated before being put in stores.
I have lost 15 pounds on keto watching videos like these! High 5 to anyone on their weight loss journey, no matter how hard dieting can be, your body mind and soul will thank you.
Keep up the good work!
YESS!! I’m on day 5 of keto and I feel amazing already but don’t see much difference yet and I’m not weighing myself at all. I was on Keto 8 months ago and fell of the wagon. Was so mad. I was on it for like over 5 weeks and I saw sooo much results. I can’t wait to see them again. By the end of August I’ll be back where I was 8 months ago.
Where did the weight go from first? I heard someone claim that fat near the liver is burnt first?
Love the honesty I heard some of this but I didn't have any research to back it up!!
thank you I'm leaning massively with your channel!!
Excellent. I am new to Keto and I love your videos. So informative and helpful and you cut though the bs.
I'm not a comment type of person but I just needed to tell you how grateful I am for your content! Whatever you have said I have tried to do and has worked so well I'm blown away! You changed my life thank you so much! I watch for your videos to educate myself every single day!
Edit: Forgot to say that I lost 15 lbs in 24 days thanks to you :)
I got to tell you, I really look forward yo your videos. Informative, well researched and I never get bored watching them. Awesome!
Thank you!
Tom - AWESOME video! Much needed info. Thank you for the clear breakdown n ranking.
You already know thanks to you, the keto diet and my personal trainer, I have lost over 115 pounds and am now bulking. I cannot thank you enough. Talking to you, even if on the internet, was and is an honour, Sir.
Wow. That means a lot. Thank you so much!
@@ThomasDeLauerOfficial Thank YOU.
What method do you use to bulk?
I can’t wait to lose 20 pounds.
@@ThomasDeLauerOfficial Would love to see a video explaining why sunflower seed oil is bad but sunflower butter is good.
Let me first say thank you for all your hard work at getting top information out there. I'm a clinical nutritionalist, and for years now have taught my patients the keto lifestyle. I just wanted to share some info concerning cashews and sunflower seeds. Cashews are from the cashew apple fruit, usually the nuts are discarded as the inside of the shell contains a caustic material. 99% of all cashews are roasted at very high temperatures to remove the shell and the caustic material. This means all cashews are roasted unless hand cracked. Back in 2006 I used to buy handcracked cashews to make raw deserts for my restaurant. They are insanely expensive! They do seem to cause a less allergenic responses in my experience. Sunflower seeds are very high in lectins and I have found best to be avoided in people with underlying gut issues. More often than not I have had the best response from using high quality heirloom nuts and seeds and sprouting them for optimal digestion. I buy wild jungle peanuts as they are high in monounsaturated fats ( good for those of us with a addiction to peanut butter) In essence, I believe the best results happen when most nuts and seeds are excluded. Unless sprouted and from a trusted source and consumed moderately, they usually cause digestive upset and trigger inflammatory responses. Many blessings E. Black
I agree regarding sunflower. I'm a coeliac that experiences gut inflammation 1 hour to 1 1/2 hours after consuming sunflower, even if it's a small amount of sunflower oil in dried fruit or sunflower lecithins in chocolate. I stopped most seeds (cumin and cardamom are okay, along with small fruit seeds IE in ripe berries), and everything with more omega 6 than olive oil, and feel much better
Thanks for the info.... I'm new to keto and your channel is a goldmine
Such a great video Thankyou Tom for all the information and breakdowns. A Vegetable this or that would be awesome.
Damn dude, you know too much. Thanks for all these very detailed videos, you've helped me learn and grow so much amigo!
Simple and informative video! Thanks
You’re welcome!
Very informative video T! Thanks!
So informative. love these videos. Can't wait for the weekly Q&A for this video. 😁
It’s gonna be big
Man, this guy talks kind of fast (which is a good thing to me) but for whatever reason, he is one of the easiest to listen to channels on TH-cam. It's kind of strange but after a few minutes of his videos I just seem to absorb a lot of useful information. Other people have great content, but the delivery is such that they are hard to listen to. This guy was pretty much made to deliver this content lol.
The easiest to listen is dr. Berg,😊
@@daijanestokazem I agree...for a doctor dr berg keeps it simple to the point and funny sometimes but serious as a heart attack(or insulin resistance in this case). Thomas gets in the weeds a bit to much . Love them both though
Pause the video and take notes with a PEN & PAPER.
cpro48609 AGREED .
I actually listen to him even faster 1.75x speed.
The only problem with macadamia nuts is that they cost 3 times more than the cashew and hazelnut
Three times is a bit of a lowball. Those things are insanely expensive, so expensive I really can't eat them.
@@thenew4559 same. Budget isn't an issue for me but I still refuse to buy them. The price is freaking ridiculous. I'm talking 4-5x the price of any other kind of nuts.
True, in my country (Mx.) are kinda pricey.
Poor people problems
Buy pecans, I mean they’re still pricier but not as much as macadamias, I buy mauna loas and they’re 659 for a small bottle, I get a full bag of pecans cheaper than that, and I believe macadamias are like 21g of fat and pecans are 20g
You really know your stuff. Good video, thanks for sharing!
I trust you more than I do many people. Why I trust you!? You helped me with saving a part of my life that revolves around food, mind and body. Loved your video on what to eat after a fasted work out for maximum muscle growth. Thank you bruhhh!! I Hurd you coming to keto summit with Berg. That's what's up!!!
Hi Thomas, awesome video yet again! Thanks! I'm a bit confused. I thought sunflower seeds had a large amount of Omega 6's? But sunflower seed butter is ok. Can you please unconfuse me? Thanks for your great content!! ❤️
I wonder what seeds we should eat. I like sunflower seeds but I thought sunflower butter was not good to eat. Should I steer away from sunflower seeds?
Great video!
Will you be addressing the recently published JAMA study on eggs/cholesterol? I personally have a few issues with the methodology and results, but would be interested in hearing your thoughts
Tell me more. What did they find?
@@ClaudiuK2 hey! It's a recently published study that found an association between cholesterol or eggs consumption and cardiovascular disease and mortality. It included almost 30,000 participants. I haven't had a chance to look at the full study and data, only briefly at friends', but there seem to be odd things with regards to methodology (self-reported consumption,...), dataset, analysis and some of the conclusions imo.
Dr. Eric Berg and Dr. Nick Zyrowski both dissed that study as soon as it came out. I esp. recommend Dr. Berg if you don't already watch his videos. (He and Thomas D sometimes do joint videos.)
I’m loving your videos! So much great information.
Hey there! In nursing school, awhile back, we were taught that coconut oil is good for external use but not for ingestion due to how the fatty-acid chains break down and/or oxidize in the body once ingested. I have read many articles on why it is good since then. Other things of interest to me (in comparison to this video) are olive oil, walnuts, flax seeds, chia seeds, and different veggies. I know many others have commented on some of the same. Thank you for your time!
I don't technically sprot nuts in the means Thomas talked about. I do however like to soak raw almonds in lime juice for a few hours and then sprinkle a little salt and chilli powder on them.
Thomas what is your opinion on pine nuts?
That sounds kinda good
Pine nuts are almost $20 a pound. I would love to make my own pesto but I just can't afford that.
Thomas, you never said anything about coconut butter? What are your thoughts? As well about tahini, sesame butter? Thank you:)
Cocobutter is okay in small amounts because it has a good amount of sugar.Tahini is high in omega 6 and pyhtic acid
@@MegaLolipop81 , coconut oil isn't high in sugar, it is literally pure coconut fat. At best sugar is negligible, almost nonexistent. Other forms of coconut, such as coconut milk, flesh, or water, due contain those sugars, however.
It's better to avoid it. I personally use only freshly ground flax seeds and sunflower seeds to make my dressings.
th-cam.com/video/byBte5p8k5Y/w-d-xo.html
That exact brand of avocado oil is now showing up in Canada! Saw it at Costco and Safeway. Now I know it is worth trying! Thanks!
Love all of your videos. So informative. Walnuts have the perfect 4:1 ratio of Omega6/3!! It's also helpful to soak the nuts for digestion.
What about pecans? They have very low net carbs and they taste amazing! What’s your opinion on that versus macadamias? That’s my biggest question about these comparisons.
I was wondering the same! they are half the price of macadamias but wondering if they digest more like almonds..
Yes you can have pecans
Hemp vs flax vs chia
Soya beans vs tempeh vs natto vs tofu vs soya mince
Marine vs bovine collagen
Collagen powder vs capsules
Staying very low carb vs eating a rainbow of fruit and veg for anti aging
Quorn vs soya
Battle of the beans
Beans vs lentils
Sauerkraut vs kimchi
Best seaweed
Thought on miracle noodles / konja noodles etc
Battle of the keto approved bars - some have changed their ingredient list e.g. Quest bars
thank you for your videos, I really enjoy them
Amazing content as always ❤️
Hey Tom. did you check the label of that sunflower butter? evaporated cane syrup. Why would you want to eat anything with sugar in it?
Also it would be awesome to get your thoughts on virgin oil oil vs avocado oil. I think that is something everyone would benefit of knowing the pros and cons.
That’s a great idea!
Thanks for the informative video Thomas. However, I noticed that the second ingredient listed on the jar of Sunflower Butter was cane sugar syrup - is that good for keto?
sugar syrup is not good for anything. Buy unsweetened
SO INFORMATIVE-- thank you!!
Thanks for the reviews!
1) Walnuts vs hazelnuts vs others ..?
2) Olive oil vs grapeseed oil vs others ..?
3) Pork fat vs beef fat (eg prosciutto vs beef-based cold cuts)
4) Tehini ...?
Great ideas. I would love Thomas' view on these other options!
I've heard grapeseed oil is NOT good to use on keto. Can cause inflammation I think.
@@MonkeyDAnis macadamian nuts are holy Grail of any nut too bad the good quality organic is like 19.99 a pound worth every penny ..problem is I can just have 1 ounce .and when it comes down to calories it can be hard
Brazil nuts?
@@ameliacarey3315 those are good as well I rarely get them tho .. I used to eat a ounce or 2 a day.. for nuts and seeds I prefer macadamian nuts, spouted pumpkin seeds , hemp seeds and chia
How about general foods - bacon, red meat (ribeye vs sirloin w/ butter), etc
Eat them all
@@makaisenki Are you supposed to stay away from the added nitrates in bacon? Or are they fine?
Short answer, no I do not worry about those. Fasting and autophagy, plus a low glucose/fructose diet should theoretically be enough to counter act any carcinogenic issues with the nitrites and nitrates, assuming that the science underpinning those aren't contaminated by a "Healthy user" bias where people who care about their health don't eat bacon and people who don't care about their health get their bacon from McDonalds on a CarcinoMac covered in what pretends to be cheese.
Long answer feel free to skip.
@@-._.-KRiS-._.- From what Ken Berry says and when I had free time and looked it up it seemed to pan out... Like there's Nitrites or Nitrates in your saliva. Not to mention that our body can do conversion from one to the other. I want to study Nutrition but I gotta get other things situated first, so while I don't have a definitive answer I don't worry about it.
Are you gonna stop eating vegetables because of the nitrites and nitrates in them?
www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5412236/
Now there's issue about toxicity which I'm not concerned about because of the reduction in carbs means I'm not holding as much water for it to absorb into. Since I'm burning fat I'm not worried about it being stored in fat. I don't know if it's water soluble or fat soluble, I assume water soluble since it's in our saliva.
I'm also not concerned about the Carcinogenic issues because on a Keto diet with intermittent fasting every now and then and 24-72 hour fasts every now and then and an occasional dry fast for 24-30 hours (usually it's when I fast and forget to drink water or other liquids I just say I'm dry fasting XD)
I just gotta hope that the autophagy is fighting any tumors, and not building up any tumors.
The reason I don't eat bacon often isn't the nitrites or the nitrates, it's because my wife doesn't do Keto, but she loves bacon, and when I try and cook 15 strips of bacon for her for a couple of days, I'll maybe eat 3, and she'll eat 12 and then ask if there's anymore.
Phenomenal stuff Sir!
Thank you!
Great information. Thank you.
A video on different and best kind of cheeses would be cool
Not a bad idea
Nice to see you bringing up Macadamia nuts, however surprised you are not mentioning their Omega 7 and it's benefits.
I was kind of thrown by that as well since he has talked about them before.
This is very helpful! thank you!!
Thanks, great content as always. What is the best animal fat to consume on keto?
what do you think of tahini ( my spelling could be wrong) paste?
Hey Thomas: Extra virgin olive oil vs Sesame oil vs Hemp seed oil please
Add the MCT coconut oil please
Curious about omega oils as supplements like, cod liver, hemp seed, and flax- and how to integrate them and WHEN into your diet while fasting.Thanks Thomas, love you videos!!
Thomas great video I love the info
How about Almond flour? Does it trigger insulin response
Clarke Griffson any caloric intake triggers insulin response..
DID you read the label on the sunflower butter? It listed sugar as one of it's ingredients. I don't think it was the best choice.
jersenguard i know we don’t like sugar but i think it’s better than hydrogenated oil and it’s not much anyway per serving if you are not on keto.
I think he just got a cheap one for the video. I doubt he actually uses buttet with cane syrup in it lol. You can find plenty of single-ingredient sunflower seed butter
I was wondering that too. Just say no.
I just ordered sunflower butter from Amazon with no added sugar. The price was reasonable too. So was the Barleans coconut oil I ordered.
@@BeNLaGRAiNE09 I agree I think he was going with the ones we find in supermarkets.
Thomas. For me, you make science sound so much more interesting & Fun. It’s like I need to learn more & shear it with family & friend. Thank you Bro 💪🏾💛🤙🏾🔥🔥🔥
Great stuff, as always! Is there a difference between virgin and refined coconut oil in terms of omega ratios? What about extra light olive oil which claims to be safe at high heat?
Eat this: ghee; macadamia nuts; coconut oil; avocado oil
Not that: butter (milk solids); cashew high carb count; almonds phytic acid in the skin be wary; veg shortening; safflower oil low smoke point; peanut butter, beans ya know
So using Advocado oil & ghee, I've ignorantly & luckily picked the healthier method without knowing. Never tried coconut oil.
Thomas, what about pecans? Seem to be a good alternative to come of the nuts discussed. Low carb etc.
He had a video saying pecans were okay, last I recall. I use them alot.
Yeah I saw a previous of video from Thomas In which he highly rated Pecans as such I now eat those, macadamia but they're expensive and recently brazil nuts as in a video he says that it can help convert t4 to t3 which helps with your thyroid.
Peacan Pie
😍😍😍😍😍
Pecans are one of the highest fat ratio Nuts you can eat per portion.
Pecans and Macadamia nuts are the best nuts, even brazil nuts are close at similar levels.
Please do a video on high oleic sunflower cooking oil. Particularly cold pressed mechanical extraction only.
My favorite oil to cook with is linseed/flax oil. It's high in omega-3, zero carbs and it has a high smoking point too.
Could you discuss cheeses, sour creams and beef?
Heather Phillips yes!!! I’m interested in what he has to say about dairy products
What are your thoughts on hemp seeds?
Excellent 3:1 balance of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, source: draxe.com/7-hemp-seed-benefits-nutrition-profile/
Great channel, keep the hard work and do a book please
I love your videos. Seriously.
YES! Add a "Round 2" of "This fat, not that fat" please!
Anti peanut butter?...
I don’t need this kind of negativity in my life... you have to cut off toxic people. 😂
Big Family Big Life But you can still have BACON! Hehe
It's funny though, in one of his videos shopping groceries he's about to buy it
Peanut butter is also full of palm oil(bad for you & the environment) & full of trans-fats. Mke your peanut butter by taking natural peanuts & blend in a Ninja Blender for 3 minutes to make butter & powder in 1 minute.
Hey Thomas thanks great information you providing by your videos. Can you please make a video on skinny fat ?
Wow this is a must have video!!! Thanks I don’t do keto (love my carbs!) but I’m very low calorie 50/30/20 fat,carb,protein so this is a great source of info thanks !!!
What about cocoa butter? Would like to hear your thoughts on that.
Mood Doom cocoa butter? I wish I could get my hands on that. Just gotta make sure there isn’t any sugar in it. I’m sure you could make your own at home.
Cocoa is keto friendly by the way so making it into a butter wouldn’t hurt you on this diet
Ghee, and all this time I thought butter was healthier.
Bruh
Ehh zing
It's super easy to make ghee from good butter. I think it tastes better & it should last longer if you made it properly. I use it up very quickly so don't really know.🐄
ghee has 30% more calories than butter, keep that in mind.
@@cosmeticharmony How is that possible? Unless one consumes more ghee than butter, I don’t see how one can remove part of the butter and end up with more calories.
Great video, can you do comparing and contracting hemp, flax and chia seeds..
Great idea!
Super and thank you for giving clarity on ghee the super food.
No worries
Types of yogurt. Bavarian, Greek, Icelandic, full fat and the different vegan type nut-based yogurts
Yeah that'd be great. The one thing I hate about so many of the nut-based vegan yogurts is how much STARCH they add to make them thick. I don't want to consume corn starch when I'm trying to be healthy, ya know?
Good, Thomas didn't say anything about pork rinds. I'll just get back to munching now.
jk, I already ate them all.
Amen
😂😂
Ahahaha
Me ^^
Three videos a week ? You deserve Every subscriber you got. That's serious effort.
Thank you so much for an amazing lesson ! I did know the benefits of Macadamian nuts💪🏼👍🏼 Where does Olive oil rank?
Avocado oil is too expensive! Don't you have an alternate with similar smoke point? I hope you get what i mean.
And it actually isn't the first to go concerning the ecological issue... Avocados consume a loooooot of water and arent't produced in areas that are close to our countries, so I guess we have to find another solution here
Use ghee it has the high smoke point 👍
Costco has avo oil a a great price
How do you fix the keto rash? I believe my wife has it.
That’s called an std
Greatness in you - thanks again

Thank you great video. Can you please tell me if you would ever recommend peanut oil?
Hi could you please advise on kefir. You have talked about gut health often and kefir is “meant” to be the best for gut health. Can you take kefir on a Ketogenic diet.
Thanks so much 👍🏽
I put half a cup of kefir in my green smoothie everyday. Helps me stay regular. Don't overdo it though because it is a bit high in sugar by keto standards
Probably keifer made from raw milk with intact enzymes is healthy. The dead milk left to rot idk
For some people, kefir is too strong and might cause inflammatory reactions as well as constipation. So, do not pursue it if you find that it is not working for you.
Alex Smith Thanks for your feedback. I’ve been persisting with kefir and it’s doing the total opposite...gurgling stomach and chronic diarrhoea. It makes me feel like shit....literally 💩😆 I’m going to give it up 👎🏽
@@walkerden-simmonds5532 Yes, diarrhoea is no fun, but in some ways you're lucky as chronic constipation is no fun either. Couldn't you decrease the quantity to a level that is ok for you, say thimble quantity?
I personally have found that water kefir is better for my system.
Sunflower seeds a very high in Omega 6. What would that be good?? Makes no sense.
And phytic acid
Omega-6 is much better for you than Omega-3. It is the "healthier" fat in terms of the fact that most people already get far too many Omega-3s, which can be unhealthy.
@@thenew4559You have those mixed up. Most people get too much Omega 6. From the Bulletproof blog: "For most people, an omega 6 to omega 3 ratio of 4:1 is ideal- that’s 4 omega 6s for every 1 omega 3. Anti-aging experts suggest going even further, maintaining a 1:1 ratio or higher in favor of omega 3s. The average American eats a ratio of anywhere from 12:1 to 25:1 omega 6 to omega 3. Not good." (I omitted their citation numbers.)
@@thenew4559 - you've got it exactly backwards, my friend... it is Omega 3's that are healthy and desirable, while Omega 6's cause inflammation in the body. DeLauer explains this pretty often in his videos, including this one, and information on this can easily be found doing a Google search. You want more Omega 3's in your diet, not less... and people are already getingt too many Omega 6's in their diets, which cause many of the inflammation-caused diseases...
Hey Thomas,
As always I love your videos. I would really appreciate it if you could talk about Culinary Algae oil!
Great video!
Grassfed ghee and beef tallow for cooking👌🏼
Nw I’ve never cooked with tallow, but plan on buying some soon. Do you have any favorite foods to cook it with?
@@jbarkley4198
I cook my morning omelette with ghee. I love pouring it on vegetables that will soak up the flavor like broccoli, carrots and cauliflower, and I like to add salt, pepper, onion or garlic powder too. Ohhh let me share this recipe too.
I made this chicken recipe when it was still frozen so you might have to adjust the cooking time if you defrost it first.
Brine chicken thighs with 2 tbsp of salt for ten minutes or longer (just put the chicken in a container and add warm water and salt)
Melt 1/2 cup of ghee in a microwave. A borosilicate/Pyrex measuring cup would be best
Mix ghee, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder and black pepper for sauce. You'll need enough spices to make half of your mixture ghee and the bottom half is full of spices (I used mostly garlic). At least, that's how I did it. Just add the desired amount of spices if you'd prefer less.
Preheat oven to 450°
Cook for 25 minutes
I could not get enough of that chicken, so good. I hope you enjoy
Nw I’ve never had tallow but I love ghee. Which do you prefer?
Tallow vs bacon fat for cooking
Pork vs chicken
Awesome video Thomas!!! I’m a typical KETO “FAT” head. I love macadamia nuts as well and prefer them more so than the rest. Which Macnut butter do you recommend or use? Thanks again for all you do!!! And your staff!! 🙏
Very informative! Thank you very much! What is your opinion on grape seed oil?
tiredlookingforname I’d like to know too...
One cup (227 grams) of butter contains only 0.1 grams of lactose
Someone can still find themselves sensitive to it, but not ghee made with the very same butter.
Exactly
Doesn't butter have vitamin K2?
@@taracat7141 so does ghee....the only thing you are doing is removing milk solids.
Well..I guess I will be fasting permanently from now on...😜
Hi,
What are your thoughts on;
Tahini
Houmous
Pickles
Olive oil
Looking forward to your reply
Greatly enjoyed this video, I’m curious what a good alternative to avocado oil would be?
Olive oil
That’s bummer. I love peanut Butter 😩. What about olive and macadamia nut oil? Thanks.
I know Olive oil is a hard no because it oxidizes at a very low smoke point.
Aaron Phillips Why is that bad?
Olive oil is okay if you use it in cold dishes. Use it to make homemade salad dressings or something of the sort. 👍

Thomas, I cook fresh green beans in bacon grease, medium low heat. Am I causing rancidity this way, or am I okay?
ull be fine get the quality stuff and just dont eat too much of it
Thomas sounds so apologetic lately. He must get a lot of shit.
@@gaweindegraaf Yes, I bet he gets beat down. I hear it in his demeanor sometimes. Everyone wants him to affirm things that that they like. But he is tying to get people towards what is best. That doesn't mean things that are "okay" are poison. But you know he wants what is best. I like that.
Yeah, he didn't address home-rendered pork fat. That is REAL lard. It is not the hydrogenated lard that is in the store. I have heard that home-rendered lard is healthier than butter in terms of saturated fats. I make my own lard for my tamales (but I haven't made tamales while on keto). Home rendered lard is way healthier than Crisco. So, your bacon fat is basically home rendered lard. It is from a cured meat (which keto doesn't prefer), but still, I would say okay.
@@erickeenan7562 Cured meat is mostly because of the Nitrites/trates but Ken Berry has a video about how our body can convert one into the other, and how there is more in our saliva of those kinds of chemicals than you would find in meat.
So the fear against cured meats might not actually be valuable.
Thank you. So helpful
Regards from Ecuador! what about sacha inchi? love ur videos
