I quit margarine aka plastic grease, in 1979!! I was highly criticized for eating butter instead but now that I'm in my 70's, I was smart to take it away from my family.

[dianechilds]

My dad was a farmer who used cottonseed oil as a weed killer and lube for machinery. In my family we call margarine congealed motor oil. My dad refused to let the family eat vegetable oils. Butter, full fat dairy only.

So glad to see this. I saw a talk about macular degeneration 4-5 yrs ago and had “wrinkle in my retina “. Stopped seed oils, was pre diabetic, had high BP. The wrinkle has not progressed and I feel eyesight in that eye is improving. Down 45 lbs, no high BP or pre diabetes. My retina specialist will not use seed oils or allow his family too. I know people wouldn’t believe me but this video is my confirmation! Thank you!

Try telling someone who was indoctrinated for years that margarine is bad for you. It’s almost impossible to get through to them. I’m a butter lover, always have been. I don’t go overboard with it though. My most frustrating moment was when I was hospitalized and they pushed margarine for the patients with their meals. I complained to no avail. I’m sure this hospital is still doing this. This is a well known hospital in my area of Pennsylvania.

I think another important aspect of the ancestral diet is the small eating window. I believe their bodies had time to get rid of toxins without consuming fake oils and concentrated sugar, due to the lack of availability naturally. Preparing food those days was a BIG job, if food was in supply, as jou will realize when not relying on processed food and takeaways. From gathering fuel to hunting, never mind tending to animals and facing danger. So, in my humble opinion, intermittent fasting plus extended fasting goes with the above mentioned as a long-term strategy for health and longevity. Good channel! Keep up the good work, and God bless.
Ps. I lost 45 kg's and recovered completely from a stroke. I am on no medication and never visit a doctor. Thanks to people like you!

Back in 2017 on Bulletproof podcast, a doctor noted this -- When we biopsy human fat tissue, we now have a more LIQUIDY type of fat than 50 years ago. We are eating industrial fats - vegetable, canola oils. ONE consequence is Cellulite. We can see when our fat is more liquid and inflammatory. Normal fat has collagen to keep fat organized. Skin will stay smooth rather than dimpled.

Omg I use to eat margarine cook with vegetable oil because i really though it was healthy and drink Diet Coke because I didn’t consume sugar 😂 and i became a vegetarian, then my health problem almost killed me, hypothyroidism i ballooned to 380 what a joke, takes years to heal but I did, I never gave up, and i am still researching, love this kind of podcast ❤

[lenbrian]

Dr. Chris Knobbe's presentation on seed oils changed my life.

[kaygibson]

Never given up butter. Tastes way better than margarine ever has.

[johnallen]

Hi. Australian man, 63. Carnivore for 7mths. Fabulous results across the board. I listened to this dr the other day with his presentation on seed oils. Unbelievable. I have been attributing all my success to elimination of sugar, carbs, plant foods, processed foods. Indirectly, i have eliminated seed oils almost completely as well, and I now believe that alone could be a wonder treatment for people who cant/wont engage in Carnivore.

[Silphwave]

Glad I found out about this 5 years ago whilst still young. I'll get to live out my entire adult life with zero seed and vegetable oils.

[freedomfighter]

THE COOKING OILS TO AVOID LIST: (1:00:55)
Soybean
Corn
Canola
Cotton seed
Rapeseed
Grapeseed
Sunflower
Safflower
Rice bran
Sesame
Peanut
If you eat any typical pre-packaged foods, you will definitely find one of these oils on the label.

Thankseverso for having Dr.Knobbe on!

[warrenhorton]

Dr Ken I'm just a old country boy after losing 160 lbs in a little over a year now. I have been doing carnival I love it I was thinking about coming up on the farm and it hit me like a ton of bricks we used to feed the hogs chicken and cows grains to fatten them for food basically the same things I was putting in my body I had the answer right in front of me years ago and just didn't see it till a year ago thanks to you keep up the good work and God bless y'all.

[SarahLynn]

DR. Berry deserves so much more views & followers !!! God Bless you & your family and all the others you have on here that help us !!! :)

[susanfowler]

Butter is very expensive in the UK right now but I still eat it. Worth the cost

[kathym]

Saying "hey" to Dr. Knobbe. I learned a lot from your book on macular degeneration including the best thing for MD is also the best thing for the entire body! I'm eating liver twice a week and feeling good from it!

[barbibassett]

Great interview. I think more time should be emphasized on the foods that have veg oil in it. Most people I know would say they don’t really eat vegetable oil, not considering all the foods that have oils in them. Most people don’t pay attention to labels.

[JtxCarnivore]

I forgot to mention, since last Sept I have been on the carnivore way of eating with zero carbs. Before that I was on the Mediterranean diet for 6 months (Mediterranean diet is a huge scam by the way. Carnivore diet is an ancestral proper human diet.) But for a year I have been off processed plant sugar foods, and off vegetable oils. My whole life (I turn 47 this year) I have had 20/20 vision but with a slight stigmatism. I visited my optometrist for my yearly check up this past March. She didn’t know about the carnivore diet/ proper human diet so I shared that info and gave her Dr. Berry, Dr. Baker, Dr. Chaffee, and Dr. Knobbe’s names. She was amazed as my stigmatism is improving! She said it has improved by a quarter! She plans to look into all this diet info and hopefully start informing her other patients about it. Glaucoma runs in my family and that I am trying to avoid. My optometrist looks forward to seeing me in a year to see if my stigmatism improves even more. I am her first guinea pig carnivore patient. Haha

Fantastic show! Two gentlemen scholars discussing with civility, humility and great knowledge a major public health issue today. Thank you very much.
