I just found your channel today and watched 3 full videos. What an amazing source of information. Well explained, many charts and references and we are clearly informed about both sides of the equation for each item being explained. I intend to not only watch all the videos I relate to over time but to regularly re-watch those that are most important to my health. Thank you so much Doctor Liu.

10:21 chart of smoking points of oils

[AlsanPine]

lol, this is why i have been a vegan since mid 80's. it was also when i cut out all synthetics, processed foods and added sugar. you are absolutely right here. i am not used to seeing this! cheers 🙂

[NitaP]

Confused ! So what should we be eating? Lot of information, no conclusion 😮

[WholeCosmos]

I switched to cooking with avocado oil a few years ago. The closer you get to the smoke point the faster the oils unsaturated double bonds oxidize creating trans fats and free radicals. avocado oil is the healthiest to stir fry or pan fry with IMHO. don't let any oil get close to smoking..this is the best way to avoid creating trans fats and cancer causing oil breakdown. I always steam my veggies in the microwave, quick easy healthy and convenient.

[eileensullivan]

Wow! That's a lot of information! 😓I'm enjoying watching you! Have followed a lot your advice!

[zsekbxz]

Consuming saturated fat in diet = increased LDL / bad fat ... - experienced this💡

[bonniek]

I love that you explain the “why’s” and physiological mechanisms! So interesting!

[cillamannie]

Hi from South Africa. Really enjoying your information. May I ask you keep the charts a few seconds longer on view just to quick read and hence follow more closely. Appreciated

[jimn.]

Bravo, Doc! You hit another Home Run with this video!

[latifnouri]

I love your presentation, alot of beneficial knowledge, intelligent and beautiful lady.

[jgs]

The knowledge that you share is incredible. Thank you

Good, but your chart at 5:50 (in which the ALA grams is per tbsp, which was not noted) left out two great cooking oils with high smoke points and very high ALA content: Camelina oil and Perilla oil! The two best oils no one ever heard about, excepting Koreans who know all about Perilla oil! Camelina oil has 5.4 g ALA / tbsp with a smoke point of 475°F, and Perilla oil has 7.8 g ALA / tbsp with a smoke point of 330°F!

[lu_Castillo]

Great way to present, very useful information I love your channel.

[congero]

Good information but we need a short concluding summary about what we SHOULD eat.

[mitchcalmes]

Very informative, but you never answered or addressed the question. So what is the best cooking oil? I never heard you answer the question. I guess it is olive oil and avocado oil, but not sure. I find this informative and confusing, please simplify and give us a conclusion with your recommendations for a healthy diet.

[lisengel]

I really appreciate the very nuanced info and especially noted best Methods for prepairing food boiling, stirfrying and microwaving and also noted that you have to eat complex carbohydrates if you exercise and avoid fasting because it can mean that you loose muscle mass especially when you are Old. And I noted that it is important to avoid high temperatures and that good quality oils can be used such as extra Virgin olive Oil, canola Oil and avocado Oil and that it is important to have a good balance of omega 3 and omega 6 Oil and that Vegan ressources are walnuts, flaxseed and hemp can be used … but its a lot of info and I Will Watch once more and take notes 🎶🍀🎵💚

[anonymous-zniv]

Thanks for not using sound effects. It is much better just to hear your voice and it must also save you some work making your videos.

[condor]

I love the way you break it all down, in a language that can be understandable!
The trouble is, we still are fed by "expert" doctors who may have given details that are somehow close to your content, on the one hand; some other information may sound a bit different, on the other hand.
Nevertheless, you are clear, concise, and truly informative in the sense that it's all believable! So thank you very much.
You have a subscriber, after I've watched your YouTube channel, several times!

i've been using the Avocado oil from Costco for cooking.
