Let’s take a look. Saturated fats are very stable and don’t react much to oxygen because they don’t have double bonds. Fats with double bonds are more unstable and react more readily with oxygen, resulting in increased oxidation. Monounsaturated fats have one double bond, while polyunsaturated fats have many double bonds. More double bonds mean more oxidation. Avocado and olive oil are monounsaturated fats, so they’re moderately stable. Polyunsaturated fats, such as corn oil, sunflower oil, safflower oil, soy oil, canola oil, and cottonseed oil, contain many double bonds, so they’re unstable and prone to significant oxidation. Hydrogenated oils are unsaturated fats that have been chemically turned into saturated fats. Saturated fats such as lard, tallow, and butter are solid at room temperature and are very stable. Although they are unsaturated fats, fish oil and cod liver oil have potent anti-inflammatory benefits and omega-3s, but can sometimes be rancid due to their instability. Be careful where you source them! Heat and light create toxic byproducts in unsaturated fats called aldehydes. These toxic compounds destroy your DNA, lodge in your cell membranes, and damage the insulin receptors on the surface of your cells. They can also make your cells stiff and fragile. For years, saturated fats have been demonized, and unsaturated fats have been recommended! This has also occurred with other foods, such as red meat and grains. Check out this comprehensive list, which ranges from the most harmful fats to the healthiest. Number 1 is the most dangerous! 1. Partially hydrogenated fat 2. Hydrogenated fat 3. Reused PUFA frying oil 4. Soy oil 5. Corn oil 6. Sunflower oil or safflower oil 7. Cottonseed oil 8. Canola oil 9. Grapeseed oil 10. Rice bran oil 11. Peanut oil 12. Refined avocado oil 13. Refined olive oil 14. Conventional lard 15. Conventional tallow 16. Coconut oil 17. Grass-fed butter 18. Cold-pressed avocado oil 19. Cold-pressed, extra-virgin olive oil Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio: Dr. Berg, age 60, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting.

How to STARVE Cancer (The Ultimate Anti-Cancer Eating Plan)

Cancer prevention starts with the diet. Depending on what you eat, you’re either starving cancer or feeding it! Discover the best cancer prevention diet and my expert tips to prevent cancer and support the immune system. Watch this episode next: Reset Your Body in 5 Days (With Zero Food) [https://open.spotify.com/episode/4oKZ046rIAE3zwxDb06ZaO] 0:00 Introduction: The best cancer prevention diet 1:26 Cancer explained 2:39 Cancer and your immune system 3:30 Starving cancer 5:45 Cancer prevention tips 6:39 The best cancer diet 11:13 Healthy eating for cancer prevention 12:36 Starving cancer with fasting 13:27 More cancer prevention tips Trillions of dollars are spent on cancer research, yet the mortality rates haven't changed in decades. Cancer is a heterogeneous disease, which means there are many different types. Understanding how cancer works is key to cancer prevention. Cancer tends to spread to areas of inflammation and to regions in the body where oxygen is scarce. Cancer is constantly evading your immune system! Vitamin D is essential for the health and proper functioning of your immune system. Cancer cells tend to block the receptors for vitamin D to combat this. It's beneficial to increase your vitamin D levels to penetrate the resistance created by cancer. Understanding which fuel a specific cancer uses is key to starving cancer. The majority of cancers utilize glucose and glutamine as their primary sources of fuel. Some cancers live on lipids and BCAAs, and some can even live on ketones! Cancer is highly adaptive, so effective cancer prevention requires multiple strategies, including diet rotation and intermittent fasting. Different types of cancer require the removal of different foods from the diet. Rotating the diet and removing the fuel that a specific type of cancer needs to survive prevents cancer from growing and taking over. Healthy Keto paired with intermittent fasting is the best diet for cancer prevention. Prolonged fasting is one of the best things you can do if you have cancer. Although some cancers can survive on ketones, ketones from fasting do not feed cancer cells. To prevent cancer and support the immune system, keep your blood levels of vitamin D at around 90-100 ng/mL. Incorporate regular exercise and prioritize both intermittent and prolonged fasting.

Foods You Should NEVER Consume Organic

Is organic better? Most of the time, yes! Organic foods are produced without toxic chemicals, but some foods are not worth buying organic. Save your money and discover the 13 foods you DON’T need to buy organic. Watch this episode next: Reset Your Body in 5 Days (With Zero Food) [https://open.spotify.com/episode/4oKZ046rIAE3zwxDb06ZaO] 0:00 Introduction: When NOT to buy organic 0:20 What is organic? 1:49 Is organic food healthier? 2:29 13 foods you should never buy organic 6:29 Foods to ALWAYS buy organic Organic foods are foods without synthetic chemical input, such as pesticides, insecticides, herbicides, and fungicides, which are harmful chemicals that build up in the body. Organic animal foods are given organic feed and raised without antibiotics. The term “foods made with organic ingredients” means that at least 70% of the product must be organic. “Organic” means 95% of the ingredients must be organic, and “100% organic” means 100% of the ingredients must be organic. Just because something is labeled organic doesn’t make it healthy. Beware of organic junk food! The following foods are not worth buying organic: 1. Sea salt 2. Wild-caught salmon 3. Avocados 4. Baking soda 5. Water 6. Walnuts 7. Pecans 8. Brazil nuts 9. Macadamia nuts 10. Coconuts 11. Cabbage 12. Banana 13. Game meat Always buy organic for the following foods to avoid pesticides, fungicides, and herbicides: 1. Peanuts 2. Strawberries 3. Coffee 4. Chocolate 5. Cotton 6. Spinach 7. Apples 8. Grapes 9. Tea 10. Cherries 11. Wheat, oats, lentils, pulses It’s important to note that organic means non-GMO, but non-GMO doesn’t always mean organic!

episode Big Pharma Alarmed by Tylenol & Autism Truth artwork

Big Pharma Alarmed by Tylenol & Autism Truth

Big Pharma is freaking out about the recent information RFK Jr. has released to the public. Is there a Tylenol and vaccine link to autism? Is this another instance of medical corruption for Big Pharma profits? Find out now! Watch this episode next: Reset Your Body in 5 Days (With Zero Food) [https://open.spotify.com/episode/4oKZ046rIAE3zwxDb06ZaO] DATA: https://protocolocoimbradrcicerogalli...https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama...https://hsph.harvard.edu/news/using-a... 0:00 Introduction: Big Pharma scandal, Tylenol, vaccines, and autism 1:44 Vaccine safety studies 6:22 Fever remedies 7:33 New medication for autism 12:52 Vaccine cover-ups and medical corruption RFK Jr. is being called everything from irresponsible to anti-science for trying to revive “debunked vaccine myths”. Autism rates have skyrocketed from 1 in 100,000 to 1 in 31, so we need to look at everything! Vaccine safety studies do not compare vaccines to placebos, they compare vaccines to other vaccines! RFK Jr. did not say that Tylenol causes autism, but that it could be a contributing factor that can influence susceptible people to develop autism. He has raised awareness of this link and has called for further research. Tylenol is used for fevers, headaches, pain, menstrual cramps, and more. Most people think it doesn't have many side effects, but it’s the leading cause of acute liver failure. Over 80,000 people each year end up in the ER because of too much acetaminophen. Tylenol’s active ingredient depletes glutathione and is found in over 600 medications. A fever is a natural immune reaction to an infection, and suppressing this can increase the infection’s duration. There are multiple causes of autism. One involves a genetic component with the MTHFR gene, which weakens your ability to detoxify and increases your risk of a folate deficiency. Leucovorin is a synthetic folate derivative recommended for some instances of autism. This medication could be beneficial and may provide optimal results if taken with B12, B2, B6, magnesium, and zinc. One study found that between 56% and 75% of those with autism had a folate deficiency! In another trial, synthetic folate boosted IQs by 25% to 50% compared to the placebo. Independent research is needed to explore the vaccine link to autism. We can’t simply squash vaccine controversy by claiming the “science is settled.” Disclaimer: Dr. Eric Berg received his Doctor of Chiropractic degree from Palmer College of Chiropractic in 1988.

episode How to Reverse Hair Thinning artwork

How to Reverse Hair Thinning

What’s really behind age-related hair loss, like male pattern baldness and thinning hair in women? In this video, we’ll address the root causes of hair loss and the best way to reverse hair loss naturally. Watch this episode next: Reset Your Body in 5 Days (With Zero Food) [https://open.spotify.com/episode/4oKZ046rIAE3zwxDb06ZaO] 0:00 Introduction: How to reverse hair loss naturally 0:47 Hair growth explained 1:27 Causes of hair loss 4:44 The best way to reverse hair loss 8:28 Natural remedies for hair loss 10:14 Foods that reverse hair loss Today, I’m going to show you how to reverse hair loss naturally, without damaging side effects. Most hair loss is androgenic, typically resulting in male pattern baldness and thinning hair in women. The hair follicle requires significant oxygen and mitochondria for optimal hair growth. Testosterone decreases with age in both men and women and is replaced by DHT, a more powerful form of testosterone. Many hair regrowth treatments work by inhibiting DHT. Too much DHT can decrease hair growth, reduce oxygen, increase inflammation, and increase scar tissue in the hair follicle. Drugs for hair growth that work by lowering DHT can come with side effects like decreased libido and erectile dysfunction. Beyond age and genetics, the primary driver of DHT is insulin resistance! To reverse hair loss and stimulate hair regrowth, you must support the environment of the hair follicle. Mechanical scalp stimulation is one of the most overlooked yet effective remedies for hair loss, with microneedling being the most effective method. Other natural remedies for hair loss include: •Red light/NIR light •Rosemary oil (natural Rogaine) •Correcting insulin resistance. This FREE mini course can show you how: https://drbrg.co/4pBHk9O •Increase zinc (30-40 mg) and vitamin D (10,000 IU) •Natural 5 alpha-reductase inhibitors: saw palmetto, pumpkin seed oil, EGCG, peppermint oil, zinc The best foods that reverse hair loss and support hair regrowth include liver, onions, sauerkraut, and pumpkin seeds.

The BEST Way to Unlock a Tight Psoas Muscle for Low Back Pain and Poor Posture

This is the best stretch for the psoas muscle—it’s simple, and I think you’ll notice a big difference after you try it. Check it out. Watch this episode next: Reset Your Body in 5 Days (With Zero Food) [https://open.spotify.com/episode/4oKZ046rIAE3zwxDb06ZaO] 0:00 Introduction: What is the psoas muscle? 0:10 The effects of a tight psoas muscle  2:45 The best psoas stretch  5:45 Learn more about the psoas muscle! Today, I’m going to share the best stretch for your psoas muscle. The psoas muscle connects the upper part of your body with the lower part. A tight psoas muscle can lead to low back pain, poor posture, and problems with the hips. Problems with the psoas muscle can make it difficult to: • Get out of bed  • Stand from a seated position • Walk and run  • Have good posture  • Keep a low back curve  • Climb stairs When the psoas is too tight, it affects a lot of other muscles, and those muscles start to compensate. Typically, a person will have a tighter psoas muscle on one side more than the other side. It’s very important to fix that and keep the psoas symmetrical. This simple psoas stretch that I’m going to show you will also help you strengthen and stabilize this muscle. I think it’s going to give you a lot of relief. Over the course of two to three weeks of doing this stretch, you’ll find that when you walk, your pelvis, hips, and gait are more free and open. You’ll also notice that your low back pain is much better, your hips are less tight, and your low back curve is in a good position. Watch the video for an in-depth demonstration of the best stretch for your psoas. Disclaimer: Dr. Eric Berg received his Doctor of Chiropractic degree from Palmer College of Chiropractic in 1988.
