Great information! How long before macadamia nuts go rancid? I imagine since they are shipped "naked" they are susceptible to oxidation. And store bought in a jar or foil? i'll pass. How many is good per day?
Look up the Korean Cholesterol Mortality Study published in 2019. Over 12 million subjects and no money from Adventist cult food industry or big pharma.
Thanks for the video. I went to buy the Macadamias but for sensitive Celiacs it's probably not a good idea. The raw nuts are processed in a plant that also processes gluten.
Interesting. OT but I find this term "insulin resistance" quite irritating, it is used as if its a pathology, like there is something wrong, when it is as I understand it the mitochondria downregulating their sensitivity either when they have sufficient energy substrate, or lipid and glucose at the same time (Randal Cycle). So it is actually a positive response to the environment and not a pathology, it is the environment (diet/lifestyle etc) that is the problem and is reversed by eating only carbs or only fats or just not eating at all, no need to eat macadamia nuts? Although they are still delicious.
For years I ate macadamia nuts occasionally, without trouble. Usually I got them in the shell and had to crack them open using a hammer. Then after a break of a year or two I had a few (already out of the shell) and had my usual food-allergy symptoms. I’m not as allergic to them as I am to poppy seeds, but I still can’t eat them.
So Dr Gundry suggests consuming 1 tbs of extra virgin olive oil a day. What about substituting 1 tbs macadamia nut oil? Is there such a thing as extra virgin, cold pressed macadamia nut oil? As an aside, I’d happily munch macadamia nuts on a daily basis.
There's a great nature paper on 15:0 and 17:0, here www.nature.com/articles/s41598-020-64960-y... On a related note, this might be the greatest headline ever: www.cnet.com/health/nutrition/dolphin-research-reveals-butter-health-benefits/
It's interesting and I don't doubt the benefits, but it doesn't seem like a game changer. Sounds like a good alternative to other nuts and a healthy addition to your existing diet, but it isn't something I'd try to get a specific amount of daily. That's just my opinion.
You're entitled to your opinion. I don't think there is any one food we "need" to eat. But I do think they are tasty and healthy. But if you don't enjoy them for whatever reason, you don't. Take this for what it is, information and a food preference opinion from an open macadamia lover
Why do you not have any problems with Linoliec Acid? We've multiple trials showing their potential harmful metabolites like 4-HNE, 9-oxoODE, 9 & 13-HODE, etc...

Thank you Doc! Quick question.. I’ve heard nut butters can be high in mycotoxins. What are your thoughts on this? Is macadamia nut butter less susceptible to aflatoxin?
I think the risk would be very low. But I wouldn't say "impossible." But I've never gotten mycotoxin poisoning from macadamia... I have from 1st year medical school dorm housing, hehe
@@pariarowand4942 You're welcome. There are few products I'd "recommend" but House of Macadamia plain / salted nut butters and the kilo bags for raw nuts are... well let's just say I'm a fan.

Omega 7 found in anything we ate historically (like elephants, mammoths, hippos, rhinos, etc.)? If not... in addition to these 5 benefits it's probably also giving you eyeball cancer.
Actually, kinda' TVA is a fatty acid found in ruminant meat that gets converted into Palmitoleic acid at pretty high rates. Palmitoleic acid is also boosted by high fat dairy.
If some non-animal-based nutrient shows benefit, then most likely it or a precursor would be found in or mimicking another nutrient found in the evolutionary diet.
In chemistry there is the concept of isomers - chemicals with the same formula, but a different shape (L and R isomers are mirror images for example). Cis and trans isomers have key groups on the same side or opposite sides, respectively. The different shape means they act differently in the body, and may or may not fit properly into receptor sites in the cellular machinery (some may not fit as well, some get stuck there blocking others, etc). Hope this is clear, my biochemistry class was... 35 years ago?
I find interesting the terms that are used to steer society. For instance the association of the term fat, being fat, dietary fat as an association as being bad. Cholesterol in the body, cholesterol in food as being bad. A few examples.

Is there any negative to eating macadamia nuts? I’m a big follower of Dr Chaffee “plants are trying to kill you”😊.
I'll DM Dr Chaffee right now (we're connected on WhatsApp) with this EXACT statement: "Hey man, Macadamia are awesome. I will fight you over this, either in a battle or wits or in a cage match or Hunger Games Style. Choose your weapon!" Feel free to ask him in the comments to any of his video if I did. You have my word.
@@nicknorwitzPhD I don’t think you want to fight Dr Chaffee. LOL.
@@dannybeach8452 Probably not
Ha. I suspect not. I punch above my weight but he does seem like he can handle himself and I'm not exactly 6'3" and 250 of muscle. That said, we are buds so no need to fight. All jokes here ;)@@dannybeach8452
Nuts are a migraine trigger for me.
Omega 7 found in anything we ate historically (like elephants, mammoths, hippos, rhinos, etc.)? If not... in addition to these 5 benefits it's probably also giving you eyeball cancer.
Actually, kinda' TVA is a fatty acid found in ruminant meat that gets converted into Palmitoleic acid at pretty high rates. Palmitoleic acid is also boosted by high fat dairy.
Eyeball cancer?
@@johnf.hebert1409 & I thought that was the funniest cancer... (Hard to get everyone laughing)
If some non-animal-based nutrient shows benefit, then most likely it or a precursor would be found in or mimicking another nutrient found in the evolutionary diet.
Seeing a lot of sea Buckhorn oil omega 7, is that it?
yep! same thing... often used as a supplement
He used the terms cis and trans in context of omega 7 discussion, where have I heard those terms before?
In chemistry there is the concept of isomers - chemicals with the same formula, but a different shape (L and R isomers are mirror images for example). Cis and trans isomers have key groups on the same side or opposite sides, respectively. The different shape means they act differently in the body, and may or may not fit properly into receptor sites in the cellular machinery (some may not fit as well, some get stuck there blocking others, etc). Hope this is clear, my biochemistry class was... 35 years ago?
Is this a joke comment?
@@nicknorwitzPhD No. I found it interesting. Is there a problem with it?
I find interesting the terms that are used to steer society. For instance the association of the term fat, being fat, dietary fat as an association as being bad. Cholesterol in the body, cholesterol in food as being bad. A few examples.
It sounded like you were poking fun at trans persons based on biochemistry of lipids. Am I mistaken?@@PardieDiem
What’s the skinny (pun) on Palm Oil?
👏👏
Which macadamia nut butter do you like?
personally, I just go for the plain (the one in the bundle). They chocolate or white chocolate are bomb delicious though
