hi it's dr. Barry today I want to talk
to you about which oils you should cook
with and which ones you should avoid
this is very important
cooking your foods in the wrong oil can
lead to substantial inflammation weight
gain and other bad health outcomes so if
this sounds like something that you'd
like to hear about today and more like
this in the future hit the subscribe
button it's right down there and hit the
little bell so that you get a
notification every time I get a bright
idea now let's talk about which oils you
should cook within which you should
avoid at all costs
now this is a very muddy water because
there's been so many billions of dollars
spent advertising for certain oils and
then there's been millions of dollars
spent trying to demonize other oils in
order to try to make the advertised oil
seem even better and so it's really hard
to understand if you just watch TV or
you read magazines and then you think
you know which oils are healthy but you
really do not so let's talk about this
now the most healthy oils that you can
cook with and eat are the saturated fats
natural organic if possible grass-fed if
possible saturated fats and these
include butter lard coconut oil and to a
certain extent avocado oil these are
full of good saturated fats that are
good for your body they're good for your
brain they will not raise your
cholesterol level despite what you've
been told 100 times when you actually
look at the research that's not the case
at all the average human body makes
3,000 milligrams of cholesterol every
day and so eating 10 or 20 or 30 or 40
or 50 milligrams of cholesterol versus
your body making 3,000 milligrams of
cholesterol that seems kind of silly to
worry about even if it did elevate your
cholesterol which it has been proven not
to so stop worrying about the
cholesterol issue what you're trying to
start to worry about is the inflammatory
issue the weight gain issue and the bad
health outcomes issues that's what you
need to think about not oldest raise my
cholesterol if you're thinking about
that
then you're behind you need to do some
more reading this more research watch
some more my videos on the ketogenic
diet so that you'll understand you're
worrying about the wrong thing because
sometimes the best of intentions they
lead to bad results if they're based on
false information
now another class of oils that are
pretty good to cook with are the
monounsaturated fatty acids such as
extra virgin olive oil macadamia nut oil
and then also to a certain extent
avocado oil it's kind of a blend you can
cook with these these are fine they have
good quality fats that feed your body
they feed your cell membranes they feed
your brain tissue and your nerves you
actually need the fat in saturated fat
and in money mono unsaturated fatty
acids another class is polyunsaturated
fatty acids and a good example this is
walnut seed oil that's also a pretty
good oil to cook in now if you didn't
hear me mention any oils then basically
if you know me I talked about good to
bad right and so the very best you can
do is to cook your foods with butter
lard coconut oil avocado oil that's the
best of the best a little less best
olive oil avocado macadamia nut oil a
little less and then walnut and then
everything else over here you just want
to avoid it you don't use it at all
because it's going to lead to chronic
inflammation in your body it's going to
lead to weight gain and may even
increase your risk of cancer now I'm
going to tell you about the worst
possible oil you can eat in the world in
just a second right at the end of this
video but I want you to avoid oils that
have names like safflower cottonseed
soybean all those oils are not good for
you they raise your inflammatory markers
in your bloodstream they tend to promote
weight gain not weight loss they tend to
promote heart disease not the opposite
so you want to avoid these now the very
worst oil of all to cook with if you
have this in your kitchen right now then
I want you to go get it and throw it
away right now okay and you if you've
watched my videos I'm all about saving
money I'm all about doing ketogenic diet
on the budget and just because you're
poor doesn't mean you can't eat right
and so I usually don't
tell people to throw foods away I say go
ahead and finish them and then the next
time you go to the store do better but
in this case you need to go and get this
bottle and throw it in the garbage if
you have it right now there's two
there's a liquid and there's a solid a
liquid is canola oil if you have canola
oil in your kitchen go get it right now
and pour it down the drain and throw
away the bottle it's that bad for you if
you have Crisco or any of the the fake
oils like that Crisco or margarine and
you've ever used those to cook with go
in the kitchen right now and throw them
in the garbage they are that bad for you
if you throw away a huge bottle of
canola oil or a huge tub of Crisco
you're not wasting money you're actually
saving money in the long term okay so
remember cook with your saturated fats
cook with your monounsaturated fatty
acids cook with your polyunsaturated
fatty acids and avoid the seed oils and
especially the the GMO seed oils like
canola just avoid them because they're
really really bad for you okay
