A few years ago i gave my last bottle of canola oil to my husband for use in the garage. He now uses it to lubricate parts and quench metal as it comes out of the fire. These seed oils don't belong in the kitchen or in our bodies, but in the garage or the garbage!!
I went on a tour of an olive oil processing plant in Italy. It had been family owned for generations, their trees were hundreds of years old. The owner was very passionate about the pain staking process it takes to extract the oil, especially with the oil being cold pressed. He insisted that once the oil is heated during cooking, not only does it undo all their meticulous work to cold process it, but that it becomes toxic in the body. He said EVOO should only be consumed room temperature as dressing on food or salads to maintain its nutritional integrity. Made sense to me. Just something to consider.
My Grandmothers fried with lard, made homemade butter, buttermilk, used raw cane sugar, baked several cakes per week. They all lived past 96. The last one passed in 2003. I’ve gotten less healthy since I started eating healthy. Too bad, I’m going back to the old way of eating at home. I rarely eat fast food maybe 3x’s a year.
Thanks for this information Judette. The commercial oils are messed up including olive 🫒 oil, because they mixed it with cheap oils. I like beef tallow, and good grass fed butters to cook with. Be blessed
They worked hard walked everywhere Often didn't have Central Heating (& our Oceans + Rivers + Fish & Seafood wasn't poisoned) Times were different 🙏🏻🇬🇧
I remember working at McDonalds when I was a teen. Fries and nuggets were fried in Beef Tallow.... Big blocks of it were put in the deep friers. Things tasted better too
To McDonalds credit they switched following the advice of the time. I think it was the late 70s. Turns out the advice was wrong. I switched several years ago to butter, ghee or lard and it does taste so much nicer 🙂
Their fries were so much better then, I believe they had to quit using tallow, because the vegans and vegetarians raised hell when they found out the fries weren't completely vegetarian.
About ten years ago at 49 years old I started to swell badly. I was suffering from ischemic cardiomyopathy (coronary artery disease). There were many reasons for this, most contributory was my diet. After open-heart surgery, I learned much about diet and removed seed oils completely from my diet and use only olive oil and avocado oil when cooking. About a year after starting this, my cholesterol started dropping below the amount that it was stabilized at with meds. I attribute this to this change in diet. This is an excellent video!! I am surprised there isn't more professionals informing the public this way. Thanks!
My cholesterol dropped and my health increased when I substituted seed oil for tallow. Yes, TALLOW! Sounds crazy but it's absolutely true. It makes sense. 100 years ago, nearly everything was fried in tallow and people were far healthier when it came to nourishment. What good most did with their eating habits was negated by excess drinking or smoking. Tallow was why thirty years ago McDonald's fries and Kentucky Fried Chicken tasted so good. Then tallow for the fries was substituted with vegetable oil and had to include another thirty other ingredients just for the fries to emulate tallow-cooked fries. KFC was never the same.
@@08turboSS The entire Rockefeller "Modern Medical" healthcare industry is a myth to keep everyone buying pharmaceuticals made from his oil for your entire life~

We should we way more aggressive with regulating food producers in general, whenever public health is at stake. Universal healthcare is one thing but we could at least make so people don’t have to do homework just to avoid polluting their guts.
Reminds me of a tub of margarine or spread I saw once. I think it was Country Crock, I don't remember. It said No Transfats on the front, and on the back, it said hydrogenated and partially hydrogenated vegetable oil. If I'm not mistaken, those are transfats, and maybe they didn't think anyone would notice.
Ok. So it's yet another switcharound! First we had to give up lard, dripping, and butter, then hard margarine became taboo, and we were told to use oils for frying and soft margarines for spreading and baking. Then we're told soft margarine and seed oils are bad, but olive oil, ghee, avocado oil, palm oil and coconut oil are OK (no-one bothers to point out that all of these are hideously expensive, and only olive oil is readily available everywhere.). And now we're back to square one, and lard and butter are back in favour! I think I'll follow my own instincts, and continue to use all 'natural' fats, i.e. lard, butter, and olive oil. I never deep fry anyway, and I loathe fast food.
Did you know that you have a TH-cam channel in Arabic with 6 and a half million followers? You are a truly wonderful doctor. I always follow you from Algeria
Italy produces about 5X the olive oil that their trees can produce. Mafia got very rich selling boatloads of fake olive oil until testing improved. But still going strong.
My mom always told me (+my siblings) to avoid eating oily food, especially deep-fried ones, because it's unhealthy. Now I know the science behind it. Thank you.

We stopped using canola and other seed oils a few years ago. In their place, we usually use butter, Pork Lard, Beef Tallow, Olive oil, and avocado oil, in about that order. We very rarely eat out because we get a gross feeling afterward. Almost no processed foods in our diet and we feel better for it!
@@ClearWater7.62 Honestly, I have found that the two best places are the local Asian grocery and the Mexican grocery. I get pork fat from the Asian grocery and Mexican pork lard from the Carnicaria.
I have been eating clean, grass fed or wild caught proteins with organic vegetables only. EVOO or butter. And kombucha. No more alcohol - something clicked for me recently. Two meals a day for now. No longer waking up hungry. Feel so much better highly recommend.
@@margaretpill5987 i think I just reached a point where I want more for myself and understand now that there’s no amount of alcohol on earth that will ever be enough for me, ya know? So moving forward I am going to treat myself to a world of sobriety and enjoy every waking minute. I am complimenting that mindset with high quality foods and flavored seltzer waters which are quite delicious. I can already see my body reacting in a very positive way. Maybe give it a try. I believe in you!
@@mattiestanford4827 my first meal is between 12noon and 1p and the next about 5p. I don’t eat large meals but if I have let’s say a large spinach salad with Turkey bacon I’ll add avocado and hard boiled egg on top and will walk away quite full. I’m beginning to see that if I omit bread and pasta my body is not swinging to hunger quite so fast. So everyday that first meal gets later and later and my second meal becomes less needed. That’s my experience so far.
After seeing your videos about the many harmful effects of cooking oil / seed oil / vegetable oil we have started using traditional ghee (clarified butter). We cook mostly Pakistani dishes at our home in Islamabad. With ghee the food is tasting better and also surprisingly easier to digest. No acid reflux or "heavy" feeling. Thanks a lot Dr. Eric, love from Pakistan 🇵🇰
His only reference is to a book written by an ophthalmologist to promote his diet. He didn't mention a single proof of any harm done by refined oils or the lack of thereof by animal fats.
@@Chamieiniibet What are you talking about? the good Doc has spent long years and decades in studying, research and analysis of diet and nutrition. I believe that he is very highly qualified in this area.
@@fzs164 Eric has studied a ton of stuff over the years, but beware that a Chiro is not a licensed/approved doctor degree where I live at least. However, Eric IS right on the "dont heat vegetable oils" thing, it is fairly old and hard fact knowledge. Ghee is nice, I have made Dhosas with it some times. But the video in general is pointless for me as I would never deep fry anything, but I do shallow fry fish in butter etc.
Thanks for sharing. I am Canadian and have run out of olive oil. Coconut oil here has increased in cost by 35%. I've been wondering what to use to avoid seed oils. Our butter is also at $8 per pound. I think ghee is pricey as well, but will definitely try it. I love the flavour of butter, so I'm looking forward to it. Many blessings to you in Pakistan. Jesus loves you.
I’m from Punjab,India.54yrs old.We never used anything except ghee or mustard oil in our house,ever,since I remember,neither my mother or my grandmothers.We were all healthy,fit and fine.And every ancestor has lived above 80.
@@saschaesken5524 thats true for external use mustard oil. In many African countries way back it was used on external wounds, and in Indian subcontinent it was used as massage oil. Thats now available in US. The ones that are commercially labelled for cooking, have almost nil erucic acid as in recent decades modern techniques are being used to reduce it to under 5% and use the oil for cooking due to rest of the benefits about it. European and Indian food standards organisations have set that limit.
More than ten 10 years ago, my husband thought I had too much oil on hand. He used a gallon of Wesson oil to run his diesel tractor😳. It was a sign! Coconut, olive and avocado oils now, and Ghee is my favorite animal product.
I noticed this after I went ketogenic carnivore. I started cooking with butter and the natural fats that come out of the meats and my bloating was nonexistent, my mind was clearer and I generally felt a lot better. This past weekend I had a McDonald's with my daughter as a treat and to eat something with her. I've been so ill that past two days...
Now u know that a treat should be some berries cheese or even if u really want some carbs then just home cook ur own pizza or something. Then u know all the ingredients
@@joebond545 Replacing the pizza base with an omelette switches the doughy filler food for eggy goodness, and the toppings work just fine on top of that instead. I haven't settled on the best name for it yet but omelizza sort of works.
Im old enough to remember food being fried in animal fats, then the government started to push seed oils , they also started to push margarine in place of real butter . A work colleague informed me that margarine is a by product of the oil industry .
during the summer take a stick of butter and a small tub of margarine and set them outside in the sun go back 4 days later and observe where the bugs are and what is not being touched by anything. if a bug will not eat it. it is not fit for you either.
Dr Berg notes: Seed oils are polyunsaturated fatty acids. Vegetable oil is actually seed oil-it doesn’t come from vegetables. Seed oils go through industrial processing involving heating and the addition of solvents like hexane, a chemical found in gasoline. This process allows seed oils to be shelf-stable for long periods of time. Around 25% to 30% of our calories come from seed oils. When you cook processed foods like donuts in seed oils, you’re combining sugar with fat and heat. This process, called glycation, creates sticky proteins in the body. Fast food oil is reheated and reused repeatedly. The more it’s heated, the more toxic it becomes. Seed oils were not originally created for human consumption. They’re incredibly damaging to the mitochondria and lead to insulin resistance, fatty liver disease, obesity, heart disease, and an increased risk for cancer. Soybean oil causes the most damage to the body, followed by corn oil, sunflower oil, and canola oil. Healthier cooking oils for frying include avocado oil, coconut oil, palm oil, olive oil, beef tallow, butter, and ghee. Keep in mind it's best to cook over low or medium heat. Pan-frying, air-frying, and stir-frying are healthier options than deep-frying over high heat. Thank you Dr Berg! 😺👍
@@conniewaite1371 Olive oil performs very well , but most olive oil is fake/colored/blended , real olive oil works great , but it should be less than one year old
Switched to coconut oil years ago. The process of making coconut oil is really simple. We heat coconut milk (pressed out from coconut flesh), and the liquid would separate into water and oil. If we cool the oil part, it would thicken so much like butter, opaque white in colour. No chemical or pressure is needed in the process.
In the 1970's the cooking oil industry mounted a HUGE campaign against the coconut oil industry that sowed disinformation claiming that coconut oil was unhealthy. Much of that info still lingers in the American psyche.
Go for cold pressed. In the process you stated, you are still heating the oil and killing all the nutrients. In the cold press method, dry coconut is pressed (not blended) with minimum friction, and it releases oil. So, when you cook with that oil, that is the first time the oil gets heated and nutrient loss is minimal.
@@anandharshal22 i think what you described is method for virgin coconut oil (VCO). I agree it is the best method but probably too expensive for cooking oil. VCO is often used in health product/supplement or cosmetics. My wife often make tea with a teaspoon of VCO, then blend with mini hand held mixer. It smells really delicious.
@@jojoanggono3229 It is delicious. In my country, it is somewhat affordable, but some brands are staring to make cold-press oils, which is driving up the prices. So, I can imagine it must be quite expensive in your country.
I went back full circle to the way my grandmother used to cook - I make my own lard from free range Berkshire pork belly fat or use olive oil. Best to cook at home, fast food is poison, not food
Pork is poison. Dont eat it for a few weeks, then eat any kind of pork, you will smell very distinct. I can smell pork eaters from 6 feet away, they have a look too.
Wow! As a trucker it's very difficult to eat healthy. I recently came out of the east where big trucks are largely forbidden to park in or near Wal-Marts. It's not until I got back out to the Midwest and west did my bowels resume "normalish" functions. Such a tragedy.
Just as an idea, you could use mixed nuts (although finding ones that haven't been deep fried may be more difficult) and fruit for snacks while on the road.
@@ChloeMMorganOTR drivers put in 500-700 miles a day. At the end you hunt for parking, wait up to 3hrs for a shower. You usually don't have enough time to cook and clean afterwards.
Replacing the membrane of our cells?!! Harming the mitochondria leading to ill health and disease?!! Our bodies taking 3-4 years to recover/repair after 1 serving?!! I have been learning so much from you over the years and will continue to be a loyal subscriber. This video has been the most eye-opening and life changing for me. Whatever tiny inclination I had or whatever excuse I had to stop and get fried fast food (on avg, once a month) is permanently deleted from my brain. Never again. I can't. I knew it wasn't healthy, thus so seldom, but I never knew all of this. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you!
Plant butter made from vegetable oils cause me to be diagnosed with stage 4 cancer in my bone marrow. I radically changed my food intake to mostly raw foods. Now I also eat cooked foods, including fish and meat. But I still consume a lot of raw vegetables and fruits, nuts, etc. 14 years later, I am nearly 80 years of age, and I have no need for any kind of pharmaceutical medicines. Food has become my go-to medicine! You can do the same! Thank you, Dr. Berg for sharing and warning people about this toxic substance! It nearly killed me before my appointed time!!!😊
That's amazing, congratulations! I backed off the fruit, it's sprayed and messes bad with my blood sugar level. It's not meant to be more than seasonally consumed is it? Cheers!
But that isn't how cancer diagnoses works. You can make an educated guess about what caused your illness, but you can't know for sure. Maybe you still would've gotten cancer even if you hadn't touched plant butter. Many people do. Likewise, many people who eat vegetable oil on a regular basis are fine.
My wife is a nurse and banned margarine and vegetable oil etc from our kitchen. Now we use olive oil on salads, avocado oil in the wok and beef / goat dripping on everything else, depending on what was roasted last. Also she switched our Teflon pans for cast iron 👍 When people say "I can't eat breakfast, I'm just not hungry", well stop eating late at night and don't eat crap for breakfast!
I would think that some beef fat is not good. Cows are fed dubious things, and given antibiotics. And more-and-more of the food chain is tainted with plastic chemicals.
@@FLPhotoCatcher We're not escaping anything by deep frying, it's just a matter of degrees of damage. Even Air fryers have nonstickchems in the baskets or the inner plastic gets high heat & permeates the food if you get any type that isn't similar to a stainless steel toaster oven type fryer (Emeril Lagasse etc)
I love his specific, respectful and precise education as he goes, describing for people who are not necessarily scientifically educated, ie most people.
Earlier my grandmother used ghee and seed oil was never used. Probably all the health issues nowadays are related to overuse of these seed oils. Hats Off to you to bring this knowledge to the light of day. I switched to olive and ghee
Grandma still alive and she's eaten coffee, bread, tea, mutton and sugar for most of her life. She's 90+ and is more mobile and cognizant than most 70 year olds.
Your grandmother is one of the lucky people. Who has a better metabolism than others. That can only explain why one does everything right and dies an early age. And why another, does everything wrong and lives to be 90.
Dr. Ray Peat mentioned coffee even sequestered free radical reactions from smoke suit and some degree of radiation exposure. Sugar seems innocuous when not problematized by polyubsaturated oils in the system. Also pufa only recently went off the rails along with iron content of breads.
I don't deep fry anything because it's so much cheaper, easier and effective to shallow fry it olive oil and butter with one flip half way through. What tiny bit of oil is left over gets disposed of correctly and never re-used. Another great alternative to deep fry is giving your food the tiniest spray of oil and then baking it. Looks and tastes a million times better.
In India we use ghee and coconut oil. After moving to Canada, people were saying how good Canola oil is, I don’t deep fry or use oil that much, but its great to hear that Coconut oil is good and I love the flavour it brings. We used to make coconut oil from home, it’s relatively easy and less processed compared to other oils.
The whole climate change narrative is also a con peddled by the same people to get us to eat processed fake meat and GMOs instead of meat, and so they can do a land grab from the farmers.
I used vegetable oil and sunflower oil too. I gave up both of them and substituted with Oliver oil. I no longer have stomach upsets,and have gut problems have completely vanished.
I fry everything in leftover bacon grease. Yum! I also eat 40-50 grams of fiber per day, and walk about 10 miles every day, too. I eat lots of cereal, beans, and vegetables, some fruit and a little meat.
Im so glad you posted this . Too many of us rely on deep fried food, especially chicken. This scientific explanation is really needed to explain to them. Lets hope everyone's health improves !
What a wonderful video! No ads, sponsors, or background music to mess with my 68-year old hearing. I was happy to watch this, as coconut oil is my go-to for everything, and I'm teaching my daughter and her family to eat healthy. She's on board, but man, is it expensive! So we're growing a garden. Thanks, you have a new subscriber~
Wayback 2016 when i started doing groceries i also started buying Canola thinking that coconut oil is bad, i started having liver and gallbladder pain until 2022 i went back to coconut oil which is same price as canola in our country, slowly im having lesser pain together with some supplements i researched,, gotta thank this channel for some of the ideas i got to heal my gut
@@brianfoster7064 We now use parchment paper with our air fryer. This helps keepin them clean. Fish nuggets, chickens, potatoes. Parchment is very good.
That was the point, to generate sales of fake food. John Kellogg started it 120 years ago, pushing the line: processed = good, Meat = bad. Nutritionists learn from courses designed by Coca Cola (you cannot make this up!) to continue the grift.

Thank you Dr. Berg 🏆
Your dry sense of humor and sarcasm at the beginning was hilarious!! I’ve tried explaining it to my mom and some friends like this- if you cook a vegetable, which ones produce fats/oils? None of them. So, there is zero reason you should EVER buy it, let alone consume it!
@@charityGFenc3 usually. Canola oil is actually rapeseed oil. It is made from seeds. Just like linseed, hemp, and sunflower oils. For whatever reason they are called vegetable oils in English.

Well done Dr. Mr Berg - you have made so many of us much more healthier in our retired years. Thank you.
You know... the confusion about saturated fat and cholesterol consumption is a bunch of FOOLISHNESS. I just got done reading about how cholesterol has an important role in muscle tissue repair and how it's a critical component in building muscle mass. Then, I checked out a picture of "the guy who discovered statins," and he doesn't appear to have any muscle mass whatsoever! 😂 WOW!

Yes, its a bunch of lies. There is NO feedback mechanism in the body for Cholesterol, except with zero cholesterol, you are dead in 3 days. Saturated fat in moderation is great and we NEED EFAs, ie essential fatty acids, ie Omega 3 and 6. Please go read Brian Peskin's book that you can even get free online....The Hidden story of Cancer.

I started hauling asphalt oil to the paving road crews in the 1980's. AC-20 and AR4000 is your highway asphalt oil and rock mixture. all the trucks carried a bottle of vegetable oil for cooking. anywhere you got asphalt oil, on your hands, clothes or equipment you rubbed vegetable oil on, then washed it off with water. vegetable oil breaks down the properties of asphalt oil to the point it washes off. smear your hands on a greasy motor under the car hood then rub vegetable oil on your hands, then faucet water. always keep a bottle of vegetable oil handy
When I was about six I fell over on a hot day, coming out of church, onto a newly tarmaced road. I got hot tarmac on my knees and hands which set hard. Granny got it off with........butter
Olive oil is not healthy. It's been proven by a specialist hospital that tests foods that olive oil is ok when used cold in salad dressing etc but becomes unhealthy and slightly toxic when heated. It's only popular because olive oil and garlic are pushed by celebrity chefs who can't even boil an egg or make toast without olive oil and garlic.
These videos are pure gold. Even though I gave up canola and veg oil years ago, this helps explain why. Keep up the great work Dr Berg, and thank you for sharing the books you are reading
I have got rid of all my seed oils now, i fry in a bit of lard or coconut oil and use olive in salads. Thank you for your videos, they are fantastic. Thanks.
Chance of bad weather today is really high in a lot of areas. Stay informed and safe and have a plan. On the subject of oils I agree and keep seed oils out of my diet and learned long ago to cook low and slow when frying things in a pan. Or use a air fryer.
Lard is a good option. All seed oils, New or used, make good scented liquid candles that also repel insects when mixed with used coffee grounds clove and cinnamon. It also makes a very long burning emergency candle.
It’s fighting the culture we live in that’s the problem. I have 4 kids and we are very strict about juice/soda/candy/biscuits/chips etc but when they are surrounded by all this junk it causes huge arguments and behavioural issues when they are denied it. We get it less now as they have been used to it for years so they are used to their treats being strawberries and cream or dark chocolate hot chocolate with cream but so many celebrations are centred around unhealthy foods 😢
Consuming trash foods can also cause behavioral issues in my opinion 🤷🏼♀️ and they treated my husband’s ADD as a child in the 70s by removing preservatives and additives and colors instead of big pharm
I've been cooking mostly with virgin coconut oil for just over a decade now. I also use olive oil, butter, and make my own beef tallow, lard, and schmaltz. With the rendered animal fats, I'll typically season it up with sea salt, herbs, and spices, just to jazz 'em up. And they are great for pan frying and stir frying. Much thanks to the invaluable knowledge and info you provide and continue to provide. I've put many of the recommendations and suggestions you've put forth and they have benefited me greatly. Much respect! 🤘
I was totally ignorant to the health implications of using seed oils. Only recently did I become aware. This 7:50 minute video on the subject is a gem DR Berg. Not only did you show reasons not to use seed oil but you highlight healthier options. I salute you for taking the time to inform us normies and I’ll do my part in sharing this video with others. Again thank sir.
Check your frying pan after half a year of frying in vegatable oils. Covered in a sticky brown gunk. Do the same with saturated coconut fat. No issue at all. Says something about reheating PUFA oils several times. Linseed oil(PUFA) is heated several times to produce old style oilpaint.
DrBerg recommends Red or i call it purple cabbage juice . I do smoothies and fine chopped salad . Best for me reduce pain in a few hours . Personally never cooked in any oil .
I once watched my friends' daughter while they attended a 3 day conference across the country. They kept their oil in a decorative bottle on the counter. Thinking it was olive oil I sauted some vegetables in it. One bite and my throat swelled up so much I could barely swallow or sip water!! I almost drove myself to the nearest medical facility. It was dark and I wasn't familiar with the area and had just dropped off the child for a 2 hour music lesson. I didn't want to be stuck unable to pick her up (she was 12 and didn't get her 1st cell phone until 13). So I waited. It finally calmed down with focused breathing and sipped tea. Searched pantry until I found the restaurant size container they filled the oil from. It said vegetable oil on the front but tiny print ingredients listed on back said canola oil. I'll never do that again. If needed I buy olive oil upon arriving at any place while traveling. Lesson learned. Anything besides pure olive oli or coconut oil is highly allergenic for me. It was a scary incident I'll never forget.
Yeah just the grease from meats sometimes enough especially bacon

There was a big university study about healthy oils for consumption unheated and their heated byproducts. Avocado oil for high temperature. Olive oil for low temperature around boiling point of water. Butter is also fairly benign in medium heat. Anything else tends to be unhealthy cold or as partial combustion byproducts. Palm oil and beef tallow are unsustainable. Coconut oil is extremely unhealthy. The worst possible oil would be to use rapeseed oil; it's only for seasoning cast iron pans.
Grear content, Dr Berg. Always love your sarcastic remarks in your videos. I stopped consuming deep fried foods and only using lard, beef tallow or butter for stir frying. Extra virgin olive oil is just for my salads. Thanks for your helpful advice ❤
The director for the Supersize Me documentary died recently. His video ended the supersizing, even though it was mostly a lie. His liver damage was from binge drinking alcohol, not eating at a fast food place all the time with big amounts. Now, the fast food price is so high, you can eat better for less shopping in the frozen food section of a grocery store, looking at ingredients for no added crap.
October 7, 2024 - I sat chuckling while I was watching this video and saying to myself.. "I love this guy!". For a number of reasons I haven't watched Dr. Berg's videos as frequently as I did a year or two ago. Life happens, but I was able to share with people that are definitely overweight, Dr. Berg.'s channel and I hope they follow up on my suggestion. Over the years, Dr. Berg has been of immense help in me understanding food, chemicals used in foods, and what a healthy diet is. Without viewing this video. I did start frying my "French fries" in butter, because I prefer the taste to Olive oil which I use exclusively for other oil based cooking. Further, I highly recommend his video on drinking an emulsified a whole lemon in eight ounces of water. It prevented me from experiencing acid reflux, and of course it provided the daily vitamin C that I require.
Thanks so much for telling people about why we need to completely cut all seed oils out of our diet. Everyone who care about themselves really needs to actively exclude it from their and their families diet. And start teaching their kids to be on the look out for it.
Good morning. Could you please do a video on endometriosis. I really appreciated the video on fibroids but I am also suffering from endometriosis. From Canada 🇨🇦
As a Journeyman Diesel Tech, I can say that what we use for doors, rollers, guides and seals looks and smells just like this oil shown here. At my home I have soaked rusted tools in this seed oil only to find it had the same effect as other commercial automotive lubes.
Thanks for sharing this information 😢. Those seed oils are no good for eating. Restaurants love to cook with them because they are cheap and save costs. But very unhealthy for eating. Thanks journeyman,all the best.
In biology I was lead to believe polyunsaturated fat was decent. Saffola was even better. But as you say, seed oils are poison. So I will endeavor to shift to avocado or butter or beef lard.the old standby olive oil still allows me to if I have a quarter to a half coffee mug full, a decent bowel movement when I am constipated. I will make an honest search for avocado or bacon grease or olive oil. Thanks Dr. No wonder I am easily frustrated, it's the seed oils fogging my brain. I will use up the last of my soy,olive oil and begin a new search. I am also now using cayenne pepper to unclog my arteries. I've quit smoking 10 years ago and try to drink only distilled water. I've switched to non fluoride non sacharine toothpaste. I do feel better since distilled water shift. Thank you Dr. Berg!
I switched. Mainly I use my air fryer. For several reasons-it doesn’t heat up your home in the warm months. In all months it saves on electricity. Besides the fact that it’s much healthier. What a difference not using seed oils makes!
@residentzero I know someone who had that problem. She said she thought it was from overcrowding the basket. I’m not an expert on air fryers but I do know you will have better results if you don’t try to cook too much food in them at one time. Less cook time. More thorough cooking.

I went on a tour of an olive oil processing plant in Italy. It had been family owned for generations, their trees were hundreds of years old. The owner was very passionate about the pain staking process it takes to extract the oil, especially with the oil being cold pressed. He insisted that once the oil is heated during cooking, not only does it undo all their meticulous work to cold process it, but that it becomes toxic in the body. He said EVOO should only be consumed room temperature as dressing on food or salads to maintain its nutritional integrity. Made sense to me. Just something to consider.
Eeek. I cook with it
He didn’t say what they cook with did he?
Great information. Thank you.
Never fry with olive oil! Only use it in cooking (ie adding it to sauces or salads) where heat is lower
thanks,those that grow,know their product,why? they get it free and test it before you even buy it,thanks it again for your input,noted
My Grandmothers fried with lard, made homemade butter, buttermilk, used raw cane sugar, baked several cakes per week. They all lived past 96. The last one passed in 2003. I’ve gotten less healthy since I started eating healthy. Too bad, I’m going back to the old way of eating at home. I rarely eat fast food maybe 3x’s a year.
Thanks for this information Judette. The commercial oils are messed up including olive 🫒 oil, because they mixed it with cheap oils. I like beef tallow, and good grass fed butters to cook with. Be blessed

Lard is one of the worst things ever..it has lots of fat
I remember working at McDonalds when I was a teen. Fries and nuggets were fried in Beef Tallow.... Big blocks of it were put in the deep friers. Things tasted better too
To McDonalds credit they switched following the advice of the time. I think it was the late 70s. Turns out the advice was wrong. I switched several years ago to butter, ghee or lard and it does taste so much nicer 🙂
Their fries were so much better then, I believe they had to quit using tallow, because the vegans and vegetarians raised hell when they found out the fries weren't completely vegetarian.
I used to love McDonalds, but now it all tastes like chemicals to me (because it IS).
How can you fry in ghee? It will burn
I bet it was soooo gooood😋
About ten years ago at 49 years old I started to swell badly. I was suffering from ischemic cardiomyopathy (coronary artery disease). There were many reasons for this, most contributory was my diet. After open-heart surgery, I learned much about diet and removed seed oils completely from my diet and use only olive oil and avocado oil when cooking. About a year after starting this, my cholesterol started dropping below the amount that it was stabilized at with meds. I attribute this to this change in diet. This is an excellent video!! I am surprised there isn't more professionals informing the public this way. Thanks!
My cholesterol dropped and my health increased when I substituted seed oil for tallow. Yes, TALLOW! Sounds crazy but it's absolutely true. It makes sense. 100 years ago, nearly everything was fried in tallow and people were far healthier when it came to nourishment. What good most did with their eating habits was negated by excess drinking or smoking. Tallow was why thirty years ago McDonald's fries and Kentucky Fried Chicken tasted so good. Then tallow for the fries was substituted with vegetable oil and had to include another thirty other ingredients just for the fries to emulate tallow-cooked fries. KFC was never the same.

Reminds me of a tub of margarine or spread I saw once. I think it was Country Crock, I don't remember. It said No Transfats on the front, and on the back, it said hydrogenated and partially hydrogenated vegetable oil. If I'm not mistaken, those are transfats, and maybe they didn't think anyone would notice.
Ok. So it's yet another switcharound! First we had to give up lard, dripping, and butter, then hard margarine became taboo, and we were told to use oils for frying and soft margarines for spreading and baking. Then we're told soft margarine and seed oils are bad, but olive oil, ghee, avocado oil, palm oil and coconut oil are OK (no-one bothers to point out that all of these are hideously expensive, and only olive oil is readily available everywhere.). And now we're back to square one, and lard and butter are back in favour! I think I'll follow my own instincts, and continue to use all 'natural' fats, i.e. lard, butter, and olive oil. I never deep fry anyway, and I loathe fast food.

Tallow & ghee are good too :)
Looks like avocado oil too starts breaking down into trans fat at around 180 degree even though its smoking point is high..
I only use physically refined RBO or Cold pressed Coconut Oil.
EVOO?
Dr Berg notes:
Seed oils are polyunsaturated fatty acids. Vegetable oil is actually seed oil-it doesn’t come from vegetables.
Seed oils go through industrial processing involving heating and the addition of solvents like hexane, a chemical found in gasoline.
This process allows seed oils to be shelf-stable for long periods of time. Around 25% to 30% of our calories come from seed oils.
When you cook processed foods like donuts in seed oils, you’re combining sugar with fat and heat.
This process, called glycation, creates sticky proteins in the body.
Fast food oil is reheated and reused repeatedly. The more it’s heated, the more toxic it becomes.
Seed oils were not originally created for human consumption. They’re incredibly damaging to the mitochondria and lead to insulin resistance, fatty liver disease, obesity, heart disease, and an increased risk for cancer.
Soybean oil causes the most damage to the body, followed by corn oil, sunflower oil, and canola oil.
Healthier cooking oils for frying include avocado oil, coconut oil, palm oil, olive oil, beef tallow, butter, and ghee.
Keep in mind it's best to cook over low or medium heat.
Pan-frying, air-frying, and stir-frying are healthier options than deep-frying over high heat.
Thank you Dr Berg!

Switched to coconut oil years ago. The process of making coconut oil is really simple. We heat coconut milk (pressed out from coconut flesh), and the liquid would separate into water and oil. If we cool the oil part, it would thicken so much like butter, opaque white in colour. No chemical or pressure is needed in the process.
In the 1970's the cooking oil industry mounted a HUGE campaign against the coconut oil industry that sowed disinformation claiming that coconut oil was unhealthy. Much of that info still lingers in the American psyche.
Go for cold pressed. In the process you stated, you are still heating the oil and killing all the nutrients. In the cold press method, dry coconut is pressed (not blended) with minimum friction, and it releases oil. So, when you cook with that oil, that is the first time the oil gets heated and nutrient loss is minimal.
@@anandharshal22 i think what you described is method for virgin coconut oil (VCO). I agree it is the best method but probably too expensive for cooking oil. VCO is often used in health product/supplement or cosmetics. My wife often make tea with a teaspoon of VCO, then blend with mini hand held mixer. It smells really delicious.
@@jojoanggono3229 It is delicious. In my country, it is somewhat affordable, but some brands are staring to make cold-press oils, which is driving up the prices. So, I can imagine it must be quite expensive in your country.
Not milk. Milk is mammalian. Liquid, juice or water..

So your doctor told you plant butter gave you cancer ?

But that isn't how cancer diagnoses works. You can make an educated guess about what caused your illness, but you can't know for sure. Maybe you still would've gotten cancer even if you hadn't touched plant butter. Many people do. Likewise, many people who eat vegetable oil on a regular basis are fine.
We cannot make these conclusions for why the illness happened.

Dr. Ray Peat mentioned coffee even sequestered free radical reactions from smoke suit and some degree of radiation exposure. Sugar seems innocuous when not problematized by polyubsaturated oils in the system. Also pufa only recently went off the rails along with iron content of breads.
None of that is necessarily bad. What type of sugar
I don't deep fry anything because it's so much cheaper, easier and effective to shallow fry it olive oil and butter with one flip half way through. What tiny bit of oil is left over gets disposed of correctly and never re-used.
Another great alternative to deep fry is giving your food the tiniest spray of oil and then baking it. Looks and tastes a million times better.
Yeah let's stop capping and acting like it tastes better just because there are half *ss alternatives seed oil is bad we don't need to be preforming

Your dry sense of humor and sarcasm at the beginning was hilarious!! I’ve tried explaining it to my mom and some friends like this- if you cook a vegetable, which ones produce fats/oils? None of them. So, there is zero reason you should EVER buy it, let alone consume it!
Sunflower seeds, among others
@@darkestkhan nuts and seeds aren’t considered veggies…
@@charityGFenc3 usually. Canola oil is actually rapeseed oil. It is made from seeds. Just like linseed, hemp, and sunflower oils. For whatever reason they are called vegetable oils in English.
No wonder seed oils are widely popular, cheap and available to deep fry ultra processed/junk foods providing more customers for big pharma 👌
pahahahahahhahaha

Loved to see you've uploaded another video in your 'Keto Recipes' channel with your wife. Never mind haters, your work is always appreciated by the ones who are genuinely interested in your content. Thank you, Dr Berg ❤
@Dr.Debashish1 that one was up there with canola oil?
You said sunflower oil is the best cooking oil but it's just as bad as canola oil on the chart.

I appreciate your kind words.
@@Drberg always grateful for your amazing work. Thank you ❤
Thank you so much for your videos Dr. Berg. You’re very appreciated!
Most welcome!
We are Australians, and we have been following Dr Berg now for about 3 years. Wow has this man changed our lives. But stop press- we have put over 20 people onto Dr Berg's videos and the list is growing. Every single one of them has now adopted his food philosophies. Well done Dr. Mr Berg - you have made so many of us much more healthier in our retired years. Thank you.
Consult a real doctor.

Wrong. This guy is not a doctor, he's a youtuber scumbag. Look him up. He just talks random crap you can find it on google without a problem.

You know... the confusion about saturated fat and cholesterol consumption is a bunch of FOOLISHNESS. I just got done reading about how cholesterol has an important role in muscle tissue repair and how it's a critical component in building muscle mass. Then, I checked out a picture of "the guy who discovered statins," and he doesn't appear to have any muscle mass whatsoever! 😂 WOW! One thing I'm learning is to NEVER raise my hand to someone hiding behind a paywall! 😐 Y'all have a beautiful day! 👊
Yes, its a bunch of lies. There is NO feedback mechanism in the body for Cholesterol, except with zero cholesterol, you are dead in 3 days. Saturated fat in moderation is great and we NEED EFAs, ie essential fatty acids, ie Omega 3 and 6. Please go read Brian Peskin's book that you can even get free online....The Hidden story of Cancer.
All credits goes to Dr Ancel Keys who propagated the bandwagon which is destroying the quality of lives
I see it as the same as carbs.
A potatoe out of the garden is not harmful compared to a bag of chips of the shelf. Unprocessed fats are good processed is a no no. Or am I high?
@@jakeschmidt4320you are. No one consumes "unproscessed" (raw) potatoes, and "refined oils" does not equal "bad oils" or even "chemically treated oils"
Cholesterol helps men produce testosterone. They don't want manly men, obviously.
I started hauling asphalt oil to the paving road crews in the 1980's.
AC-20 and AR4000 is your highway asphalt oil and rock mixture.
all the trucks carried a bottle of vegetable oil for cooking.
anywhere you got asphalt oil, on your hands, clothes or equipment
you rubbed vegetable oil on, then washed it off with water.
vegetable oil breaks down the properties of asphalt oil to the point it washes off.
smear your hands on a greasy motor under the car hood then rub vegetable oil on your hands, then faucet water.
always keep a bottle of vegetable oil handy
When I was about six I fell over on a hot day, coming out of church, onto a newly tarmaced road. I got hot tarmac on my knees and hands which set hard. Granny got it off with........butter
What I learned in chemistry - "like dissolves like".
So what is your point? Oil dissolves tar and is not harmful to skin as diesel or gasoline would be.
Curious to try next time i wrench on my old Jeeps.. i nornally use gojo.. but this would be neat to try
I have not deep fried for years now, I threw out my chip pan many years ago! I feel the benefits from doing so!
I love the sarcastic intros.
Was actually pan frying chicken thighs in my cast iron with my homemade ghee when this came on.
Had me chuckling anyway.
You should start a cooking/food prep channel. Subscribing now. ❤
Yes even me coconut oil avocado oil and olive oil
Grapeseed oil has the highest smoke point, it's another good one!
Olive oil is not healthy. It's been proven by a specialist hospital that tests foods that olive oil is ok when used cold in salad dressing etc but becomes unhealthy and slightly toxic when heated.
It's only popular because olive oil and garlic are pushed by celebrity chefs who can't even boil an egg or make toast without olive oil and garlic.
Grapeseed oil is toxic too do your research.
As a brit i just wanted to say that your sarcasm is top notch 😂
😂
Eat all the seed oils please clean the gene pool
@@RussiaisAriddle-ih6bg... show us the way first. 😅
@@jamesogden7756 They are. With all that vodka consumed, Russia is #1 for heart disease.
Germans used it a lot in ww1 and ww2 for their military equipment and cooking food all at once with seed oils.
These videos are pure gold. Even though I gave up canola and veg oil years ago, this helps explain why. Keep up the great work Dr Berg, and thank you for sharing the books you are reading
You're absolutely welcome!
I have got rid of all my seed oils now, i fry in a bit of lard or coconut oil and use olive in salads. Thank you for your videos, they are fantastic. Thanks.
Teow oil? Is teow animal fat?
You're absolutely welcome!
Congrats on getting 12 Million subs, Dr. 🥂 Stay genuine. 🏆
I remember dr berg saying in one of his videos when he reached 10m, his new goal was 15m.
Chance of bad weather today is really high in a lot of areas. Stay informed and safe and have a plan. On the subject of oils I agree and keep seed oils out of my diet and learned long ago to cook low and slow when frying things in a pan. Or use a air fryer.
Lard is a good option. All seed oils, New or used, make good scented liquid candles that also repel insects when mixed with used coffee grounds clove and cinnamon. It also makes a very long burning emergency candle.
Test your olive oil by placing in the refrigerator for a day, if portions don’t solidify, those portions are most likely seed oils; pour them off.
Good idea, thanks!
Not necessarily, water condensation happens in the pan from the hamburger patties I make and most of it turnshard but some doesn't
He is talking about bottled olive oil..
Not whatever you do in a pan. Read the comment again.
It’s fighting the culture we live in that’s the problem. I have 4 kids and we are very strict about juice/soda/candy/biscuits/chips etc but when they are surrounded by all this junk it causes huge arguments and behavioural issues when they are denied it. We get it less now as they have been used to it for years so they are used to their treats being strawberries and cream or dark chocolate hot chocolate with cream but so many celebrations are centred around unhealthy foods 😢
I can totally sympathize. Everything has been compromised and unless you are wealthy it’s near impossible to eat clean.
Bless you, may they grow to greatly appreciate your strict love for their health!😊
If you do well, you may have one spoon of honey on your after dinner fruit.
Consuming trash foods can also cause behavioral issues in my opinion 🤷🏼♀️ and they treated my husband’s ADD as a child in the 70s by removing preservatives and additives and colors instead of big pharm
I smashed the like button here. I'm worried of when I'll have kids in the near future hopefully, about the way I'm going to deal with this lol.
These seed oils are killing us, and you are absolutely right dr. B . We love and appreciate all the hightlights.
I've been cooking mostly with virgin coconut oil for just over a decade now. I also use olive oil, butter, and make my own beef tallow, lard, and schmaltz. With the rendered animal fats, I'll typically season it up with sea salt, herbs, and spices, just to jazz 'em up. And they are great for pan frying and stir frying.
Much thanks to the invaluable knowledge and info you provide and continue to provide. I've put many of the recommendations and suggestions you've put forth and they have benefited me greatly. Much respect! 🤘
I was totally ignorant to the health implications of using seed oils. Only recently did I become aware. This 7:50 minute video on the subject is a gem DR Berg. Not only did you show reasons not to use seed oil but you highlight healthier options. I salute you for taking the time to inform us normies and I’ll do my part in sharing this video with others. Again thank sir.
I prefer just regular lard.
Lard is absolutely amazing to fry chips/fries in. This was popular in 1970s uk for chip pans…best chips you’ll ever have.
Save my bacon fat too . Great for pan and stir fry . Adds a b it of flavor , and who don't like bacon !!!
@@garyhooper1820 agreed mate! I have a two pint tub of it int fridge
Ghee has a very high smoke point of 485 degrees. Great video! 💚🎸
Check your frying pan after half a year of frying in vegatable oils. Covered in a sticky brown gunk. Do the same with saturated coconut fat. No issue at all. Says something about reheating PUFA oils several times. Linseed oil(PUFA) is heated several times to produce old style oilpaint.
Whole heartedly believe this to be 100 percent accurate. My body immediately becomes inflamed after consuming food cooked in these oils
DrBerg recommends Red or i call it purple cabbage juice . I do smoothies and fine chopped salad . Best for me reduce pain in a few hours . Personally never cooked in any oil .
hahaha your whole body becomes inflamed 🤣
I once watched my friends' daughter while they attended a 3 day conference across the country. They kept their oil in a decorative bottle on the counter. Thinking it was olive oil I sauted some vegetables in it. One bite and my throat swelled up so much I could barely swallow or sip water!! I almost drove myself to the nearest medical facility. It was dark and I wasn't familiar with the area and had just dropped off the child for a 2 hour music lesson. I didn't want to be stuck unable to pick her up (she was 12 and didn't get her 1st cell phone until 13). So I waited. It finally calmed down with focused breathing and sipped tea. Searched pantry until I found the restaurant size container they filled the oil from. It said vegetable oil on the front but tiny print ingredients listed on back said canola oil. I'll never do that again. If needed I buy olive oil upon arriving at any place while traveling. Lesson learned. Anything besides pure olive oli or coconut oil is highly allergenic for me. It was a scary incident I'll never forget.
Watching to the end of the video I just remembered the oil was a mix. The other oil listed was soybean oil as 1st, canola as 2nd.
lol your body becomes inflamed? What does that even mean
Classic Berg! Favorite this! Congratulations, Dr. B & team, for the 12 million subscribers!
Vegetable oil makes the fires in my burn barrel look like bonfires. Bottle says soybean oil. I use bacon grease or butter for cooking
Thanks! Was wondering what to do with my trash oil.
TBF , bacon grease would make a fire burn bright too.
@@DOGOID so does motor oil, bacon grease also cures constipation, for humans and cats
@@pt6108 if you mix it with oatmeal, it is good for feeding birds
Yeah just the grease from meats sometimes enough especially bacon
There was a big university study about healthy oils for consumption unheated and their heated byproducts.
Avocado oil for high temperature. Olive oil for low temperature around boiling point of water. Butter is also fairly benign in medium heat. Anything else tends to be unhealthy cold or as partial combustion byproducts.
Palm oil and beef tallow are unsustainable. Coconut oil is extremely unhealthy.
The worst possible oil would be to use rapeseed oil; it's only for seasoning cast iron pans.
Why coconut oil is unhealthy ?
@@ThatDruidDude "Big university study" says so.. LOL. Must be Harvard, the source of the best fraudulent studies today.
Grear content, Dr Berg. Always love your sarcastic remarks in your videos. I stopped consuming deep fried foods and only using lard, beef tallow or butter for stir frying. Extra virgin olive oil is just for my salads. Thanks for your helpful advice ❤
The water pump we bought recommended to use "vegetable oil" after every use to keep it lubricated. It's still working flawlessly after a few years lol
The director for the Supersize Me documentary died recently. His video ended the supersizing, even though it was mostly a lie. His liver damage was from binge drinking alcohol, not eating at a fast food place all the time with big amounts. Now, the fast food price is so high, you can eat better for less shopping in the frozen food section of a grocery store, looking at ingredients for no added crap.
He was a sad empty hollow lying husk🤥 RIP💀🍔🍟🍸
His starting labs were faked?
Do you mean Morgan Spurlock? I watched that years ago.
@@johnricharddowling3276 Yup ol' Morgan finally kicked it late this week ⚰️🌾
He died from cancer
October 7, 2024 - I sat chuckling while I was watching this video and saying to myself.. "I love this guy!". For a number of reasons I haven't watched Dr. Berg's videos as frequently as I did a year or two ago. Life happens, but I was able to share with people that are definitely overweight, Dr. Berg.'s channel and I hope they follow up on my suggestion. Over the years, Dr. Berg has been of immense help in me understanding food, chemicals used in foods, and what a healthy diet is. Without viewing this video. I did start frying my "French fries" in butter, because I prefer the taste to Olive oil which I use exclusively for other oil based cooking. Further, I highly recommend his video on drinking an emulsified a whole lemon in eight ounces of water. It prevented me from experiencing acid reflux, and of course it provided the daily vitamin C that I require.
Thanks so much for telling people about why we need to completely cut all seed oils out of our diet.
Everyone who care about themselves really needs to actively exclude it from their and their families diet.
And start teaching their kids to be on the look out for it.
Good morning. Could you please do a video on endometriosis. I really appreciated the video on fibroids but I am also suffering from endometriosis. From Canada 🇨🇦
How to know if you have that
Best wishes ❤ Both of the ladies I know w endo enjoy very successful accomplished full lives, may you find the best path! 👣 🔦
As a Journeyman Diesel Tech, I can say that what we use for doors, rollers, guides and seals looks and smells just like this oil shown here. At my home I have soaked rusted tools in this seed oil only to find it had the same effect as other commercial automotive lubes.
Thanks for sharing this information 😢. Those seed oils are no good for eating. Restaurants love to cook with them because they are cheap and save costs. But very unhealthy for eating. Thanks journeyman,all the best.
In biology I was lead to believe polyunsaturated fat was decent. Saffola was even better. But as you say, seed oils are poison. So I will endeavor to shift to avocado or butter or beef lard.the old standby olive oil still allows me to if I have a quarter to a half coffee mug full, a decent bowel movement when I am constipated. I will make an honest search for avocado or bacon grease or olive oil. Thanks Dr. No wonder I am easily frustrated, it's the seed oils fogging my brain. I will use up the last of my soy,olive oil and begin a new search. I am also now using cayenne pepper to unclog my arteries. I've quit smoking 10 years ago and try to drink only distilled water. I've switched to non fluoride non sacharine toothpaste. I do feel better since distilled water shift. Thank you Dr. Berg!
I switched. Mainly I use my air fryer. For several reasons-it doesn’t heat up your home in the warm months. In all months it saves on electricity. Besides the fact that it’s much healthier. What a difference not using seed oils makes!
Full of teflon... another potential toxin. There's nothing that isn't bad.
@residentzero I know someone who had that problem. She said she thought it was from overcrowding the basket. I’m not an expert on air fryers but I do know you will have better results if you don’t try to cook too much food in them at one time. Less cook time. More thorough cooking.
Dr. Eric kindly makes a video on thyroid nodules releasing thyroid hormones and causing hyperthyroidism and also tells us how to shrink nodules.
I will have to find the video
@@deassfgh7807 Thank you very much, Dr. Eric talked about hyperthyroidism but not hyperthyroidism due to the secretion of thyroid hormones from nodules. I would appreciate it if you could find a video of Dr. Eric addressing this issue.
Does giving up seed oils mean never eating outside again?
Yes 👍
Unless the restaurant uses tallow
I don't
Only way i do is with my charcoal grill
Yes, and it's frustrating. Maybe I'm lazy, but my schedule makes it so getting fast food works so well.
I always buy briskets and trim off the fat to make tallow for cooking and frying. I love frying purple sweet potatoes in tallow. It’s so good
Thanks Doctor,your videos are amazing and I love how you break things down to everyone's understanding💯
