  • Dr. Chris Knobbe is a physician, researcher, ophthalmologist, public health advocate, and Associate Clinical Professor Emeritus, formerly of the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas, Texas. He is known primarily for his research, publications, and presentations connecting Westernised diets and highly polyunsaturated vegetable oils to numerous chronic diseases, including coronary heart disease, hypertension, stroke, cancers, type 2 diabetes, metabolic syndrome, obesity, Alzheimer’s disease, autoimmune diseases, and age-related macular degeneration (AMD).
    Dr. Knobbe’s research has focused greatly on the “vegetable oil hypothesis” as the primary driver of overweight and chronic disease. In 2016 he formally introduced the hypothesis that processed foods and vegetable oils are the primary drivers of AMD, which is the leading cause of irreversible vision loss and blindness in people over the age of 50, worldwide. Dr. Knobbe has presented his research on ancestral dietary strategy and macular degeneration at various conferences and has also authored a book titled 'The Ancestral Diet Revolution: How Vegetable Oils and Processed Foods are Destroying Your Health'. His research suggests that macular degeneration can be prevented and treated through an ancestral dietary strategy and “sacred” foods.

    The wife and I both late 50s. Been eating wrong all our lives. She's got breast cancer, I was morbidly obese with T2D. I've turned it around on Carnivore but cancer is harder to defeat. The worst thing is watching the next generation destroy themselves on a fast food, seed oil based diet. Take away pizzas, burgers and french fries are so much more convenient than having to make the effort to eat the Proper Human Diet.

      It's simple: stick to things that have only 1 ingredient, but no isolates like sugar and oil (you can throw them together obviously for a meal)
      I consider whole grain pasta to be healthy, but you should have them split up in to maximum 2 meals a day. Other than that I eat oats, nuts and vegetables. Only drink water, coffee, and tea without additives. If you're vegan have your vit.B12 and a good source of omega-3 fatty acids (like algae oil), maybe vit.D if you're a nightshift worker or not out in the sun much, and you're good. I'm 40 years old, athletic, everyone thinks I'm much younger. Take good care of your bodies folks 💟🌌☮️

      You would do even better without the olive & coconut oil, due to the unhealthy cholesterol-lowering effect of the plant sterols that they contain --- see ua-cam.com/video/XFFT4C1OcPY/v-deo.html. You can collect the melted fat from the beef or lamb that you roast or fry --- pour it into a heat-proof bowl & it will solidify & can be kept, unrefrigerated, for months. You can also keep chicken, pork, & duck fat, but since they don't solidify to the same extent, they will need to be refrigerated & used sooner (or they could be frozen).

    I am sharing this in the hope that it motivates someone to act sooner than I did.
    I got sensible with sugar and carbs, and quit 7 very common things altogether - 1) anything battered and fried, 2) bread, 3) pasta, 4) potatoes, 5) corn, 6) rice, and 7) all fruits but rasberries, blueberries and strawberries. Plus, the only deserts I eat are an occassional bit of sugar free jello or pudding, sprinkled with nuts and a bit of whipped cream. This isn't a true KETO diet, but it's along those lines, and the 7 things I listed were the main staples of my unhealthy diet. I also replaced seed oils with butter, lard, bacon grease and olive oil. I eat all the meats of every kind I want, as long as they are not fried in seed oil, along with lots of eggs, cheese and low carb veggies. Bacon is wonderful, and I eat LOTS of it. Three months after I started this, my doctor took me off all T2D meds, as I no longer needed them. Two years later, I have lost 35 pounds and my cholesterol and triglycerides are perfectly normal for the first time in my life. {My overall cholesterol after fasting was once 600, and my triglycerides were 1400 - seriously.) My heart checkups have also improved exponentially.
    Wish me luck, and please do not wait . Start a more healthy diet today.

      He'll pure sugar cane is actualy a health food. Not the juice or the crystals.
      Juicing foods isolates sugar and concentrates it. 😅
      Fruit juice may as well be soda
      Should we ban refined sugar. No. Find away to do no chemicals
      But it shouldn't be added to anything.
      But bakeries the like should have access pure sugar in stores. With a surgeon General warning.
      Kinda like alcholol u can't just add it to everything in store. Atf.
      Also homemade coldpressed seed oils on rare occasion.
      Sunflowers. Say if u home press.
      No Chem refinement
      As a treat. May not be bad.

      Jenna, when you say your diet is 90% meat based do you mean carnivore? My situation is similar situation to yours. I got rid of processed food, vegetable and seed oils, added sugars and most carbohydrates. I've been getting closer to carnivore but it is difficult to shake what we were taught. The emphasis on eating lots of fruit and vegetables comes from beliefs that have been largely debunked.
      I was going to join Dr Andrew Chaffee's community, I'm not sure if you're familiar with him, he is an MD, surgeon and advocate for carnivore diet. He does carnivore in its purest form, meat, salt and water. He is extremely healthy and there are many, many testimonials from people whose lives have been radically changed for the better.
      Do you practice intermittent fasting? I generally do from about 7:00 p.m. until 11:00 a.m. or early afternoon. I have coffee with heavy cream but no usually food until then unless I am hungry. Do you eat avocados or any other fruits or vegetables?
      I would love any other details you are willing to share.

    @gastropodahimsa 5 місяців тому +231

    There is one thing that I haven't heard mentioned in this line of reasoning that I think is worth considering. All of the vegetable oils that are used for frying, especially in restaurants, are treated with strong synthetic antioxidants because they have to be, otherwise they wouldn't even last a few hours in the fryer. Those antioxidants are, of course, oil soluble, and are eaten with whatever food has been cooked in the oil. They are formulated to resist degradation even in the harsh conditions of industrial frying and are certainly resistant to biological/human-enzymatic degradation, and so they must end up dissolved in the fats of human cells, both storage fat and structural. The nature of the antioxidants is to inhibit chemical changes to fats and they must continue to do that in the body. That is metabolic havoc for sure.

I was drinking a smoothie every day (I'm a skinny person working a manual labor type job and I needed something convenient and high in calories) so I added oil to my smoothies. I found my inflammation got worse having seed oils / canola oil in my smoothies, so I stopped. It was only after that, that I learned of some of the other negative effects of seed oils. I still struggle to eat healthy but I'm definitely avoiding seed oils.

As a scientist myself, while this talk is convincing with the fancy graphics, scientifically it's unconvincing to me (though, very interesting!). He could have made the exact same argument with any other uncorrelated thing. Such as the number of hours in front of a screen or the number of micro-plastics we consume.
      To be sure something actually causes something else it MUST be in a controlled study. Luckily, there are many controlled studies that have been done with omega-6, they just aren't as exciting as a plot. For more info, I'd recommend looking into the following other people:

    Four years ago I started intermittent fasting and became keto and after a few month carnivore. A few month later my mother also started fasting and ate low carb because she saw how well it worked for me. She lost weight, improved prediabetes and high blood pressure. But she still had seed oils back then. Two years ago she told me about her macular degenaration. I told her about your presentations and that she should stop eating seed oils and margerine (she does't understand English well enough, so I could't really show her your talks) But she listened to me (probably also because her mother is almost blind and had margerine and seed oils most her life) and cut out all seed oils, which was hard for her because she never ate butter and is not a dairy fan. But one year later when she had her next eye exam the doctor was stunned. He could't believe that her macular degenaration could improve. But it was what the eye exam showed. He never saw that before. 😊Now she doesen't even need her eye drops anymore. When people ask me why I am not eating seed oils and I don't let my kids eat french fries etc. I tell them I am too afraid of getting blind. I also think lipomas might be related to seed oil intake. I have some of them. After cutting out seed oils I didn't get new lipomas. It is also as if my lipomas shrinked a little, but they are still there... I wonder if there is research about lipomas and seed oil intake and if it is possible to reverse lipomas by diet only. 😊

    • @gins8781
      @gins8781 4 місяці тому +3

      That’s a good question. I’m curious about a connection between seed oils and lipomas too, more specifically omega 6 oils. I’ve developed lipomas around my ankles starting about 10 years ago and more recently my inside elbows. I didn’t grow up eating a lot of refined food and I’ve never knowingly consumed a lot of refined seed oils; though I’m sure I’ve eaten some hidden in the occasional restaurant food indulgence. I also make the occasional sweet “keto” treat using almonds and other nuts, which are high in omega 6 oils. Tightening up my macros to 80/15/5 keto has kept the lipomas from getting bigger, but I can’t really say they have shrunk in proportion to my weight loss.
      I have read that lipomas sometimes occur at the location of an injury. The first one I noticed was on an ankle that had been severely injured in my childhood and bears a large disc shaped scar. I have also sprained and fractured my ankles multiple times in my life. So that seems to support the injury hypothesis. More recently I began getting lipomas around the medial epicondyle on both arms. I have suffered from tendinitis off and on in both arms and also had frequent infusions and phlebotomy in those locations. The size and density of each lipoma seems to be relative to the severity and frequency of injury at each location. So it seems the relationship to seed oils may be possible, but it is probably very complex. If your lipomas are near a joint or located next to an old injury, I wonder if that might also be a factor.

    Thankyou Dr Knobbe, this presentation has turned my head. I have been aware of the dangers of seed oil consumption, but had primarily focussed on sugars and carbohydrates to be the main drivers of metabolic disregulation. An essential adjustment of thinking was needed, and this presentation has provided sufficient, quantified and qualified information for me to do so.
    Thankyou once again.

    • @Kiihhu2
      @Kiihhu2 5 місяців тому +6

      The way I see it, the RELATIVE amount of sugar and carbs (which Knobbe had on his graphs) is not the whole story, but the ABSOLUTE amount is. Even if your refined carbs percentage goes down 10 %, it doesn't matter if you eat twice as much food than previously (Knobbe said we eat more food than before), because the chances of exceeding your carbohydrate tolerance limit increases when you eat more food. Not saying that seed oils don't play a role, but I still consider sugar and refined carbs to be the primary driver of modern disease. Especially for type 2 diabetes I find that crystal clear (if your cells are not willing to accept glucose, then why would you eat foods rich in starch where one molecule consists of hundreds of thousands of glucose units that will be unleashed in your blood within minutes of eating it?). Like if you're allergic to peanuts, then why would you eat that?

    The thing about this is, you also have to take into account the more advance detection techniques we have developed as well. While there is certainly a large finger to be pointed at seed oils in our diets, it still needs to be cross referenced and balanced with how much better we are at detecting those things earlier. That being said, even if you cut these numbers by 90%, the fact that they are simply that much more prominent speaks volumes.

Reynolds acquired the major food companies Kraft, General Foods and Nabisco, allowing tobacco firms to dominate America's food supply and reap billions in sales from popular brands such as Oreo cookies, Kraft Macaroni & Cheese and Lunchables.
      The addiction hawks from the tobacco industry therefore moved on to the food industry when it started to burn under their feet due to stricter smoking laws.

    Longevity has not been mentioned up to now. People in 1890 didn't live as long as they live now, they died of other illnesses that are not life-style related and not longevity related. That native tribe who ate mostly sweet potatoes and had no diabetes or heart disease or macular degeneration, what average life duration has? Many of our death causes are related to longevity. But (big but here) obesity, non alcoholic liver disease, hypertension, type 2 diabetes, are seen in a more and more younger people. Life style, and very much diet play a big part. Likely sugar and seed oils are big culprits among other helpers present in processed food.

    • @Gregory-kv8vj

      Most of the increase in longevity is due to reduced premature mortality, ie lower infant mortality, reduced accidents, etc. You may be interested to learn that life expectancy in the USA has been decreasing for the last four years.

      You will know more than any doctor if you read Dr. Knobbe's first book: Ancestral Dietary Strategy to Prevent and Treat Macular Degeneration. I would live and breathe this book until I'm following every last part of his diet. You have to figure out what and how you can accomplish it. You may find yourself looking for wild caught salmon. Some times of the year you have to find it frozen because it doesn't come fresh all year round. Zero tolerance of seed oils is required. This will mean making your own salad dressing. If you like blue cheese dressing you are in luck! It is very hard to find good tasting mayonnaise without seed oils so there's another place to find and make your own recipe. It all starts with his book!! I would say that this book has the "ophthalmology point of view" you are looking for. Treat yourself to the hard cover version.

    Whilst carbs by themselves may not be so problematic, it might be a significant problem in a mixed macro diet with large amounts of both carbs and fat.
    I haven't touched seed oils for many years. I consider them toxic; high heat treated, processed with chemicals, oxidized before getting in the bottle, often further oxidized when used for cooking, contain aldehydes.

    Wow. I would have never expected to see carb and sugar consumption are on the decline from 1960 to now. As I have cut carbs and gotten healthier, I've probably also somewhat unconsciously been cutting vegetable oils. I've been thinking carbs are the devil. You might be onto something!

    • @dfunckt
      @dfunckt 5 місяців тому +4

      I think all of us who have made progress with health and weight loss on low carb or carnivore diets may attribute the bulk of our success to cutting all the processed food. I notice now when reading labels how many ingredients are added to everything, but primarily hydrogenated veg oil and sugars. Carnivore and fasting are great for health restoration, but I think a return to a diet with some carbs in the form of fresh fruit and vegetables is in order once a healthy body weight is achieved. I have demonized carbs for too long. But I will never return to processed foods, anything made from wheat, or refined sugars.

    • @Kiihhu2
      @Kiihhu2 5 місяців тому +3

      Me neither. But those numbers that had come down were percentage of carbs from the eaten calories and number that went up was percentage of seed oils from eaten calories. Even if the relative amount of carb calories comes down, the absolute amount of carbs could still go up if we eat more food than before (Knobbes claimed we eat more food these days). If the absolute amount of eaten carbs exceeds your personal carbohydrate tolerance limit, you start to become insulin resistant and eventually develope type 2 diabetes. So I think it's misleading to say the carb consumption has come down, though the percentage of eaten calories from carbs could have, if his data is correct.

    Very interesting talk. I've gone full blown carnivore, which has eliminated ALL my problems inflammation, brain fog, knee pain, anxiety etc. and I am losing excess weight at a really good rate towards my ideal weight. However, I was always weary of seed oils previously and avoided them like the plague. So for me, carni and added animal fat and eliminating inflammatory vegetables seems to have provided amazing benefits. However, if the good doctor considers olive oil to be a seed oil too, then yes, I have eliminateed a fairly major seed oil recently. It was the one plant oil I did consume - could that have had a positive effect as well, couple with increased animal fats?

      Thank for sharing your experience with olive oil It is not a seed derived but from the fruit and its content is different from seed oils, namely high in monounsaturates.
      However, it has been said somewhere in the net that before 1900, it was used for cosmetics and for oil lamps, ingestion began after that.
      I believe it is beneficial, but must be kept low so as to not make omega 6 significantly high in your diet.
