Cultured Oil, Zero Acres’ Answer to Seed Oils; Interview of Jeff Nobbs on A Neighbor's Choice with David Gornoski

Zero Acre launched their product today. See their website and their blog for lots of information. 

I think these two graphics, from their article "Cultured Oil Health Report" really get to why this is going to be a game-changer.

"How cooking oils turn toxic" shows how superior a low-linoleic acid oil like Cultured Oil is to the alternatives we've been told to use.

It's a game changer, especially for stir frying or sauteing which is a major cause of lung cancer.


And "Susceptibility to oxidation" shows how Cultured Oil is superior to all but the most traditional animal fats. (It's better than lard or duck fat since both those animals are fed high-grain & seed oils diets currently. Fix the feed, and they become a better option.)



What's the reason for this superior performance? It's obvious. "Linoleic acid content of liquid oils" shows Cultured Oil has the lowest linoleic acid content of any available liquid oil, comparable to only coconut oil, which has it's own oxidation issues due to the short-chain fats that comprise that oil.



David Gornoski and I interviewed Jeff Nobbs, the founder of Zero Acre a little while back, and had a great talk about the new product.

"In this special nutrition science podcast, David Gornoski and Tucker Goodrich are joined by Jeff Nobbs, co-founder of Zero Acre Farms. The discussion starts off with the realization that seed oils are harmful to our health. Jeff Nobbs and Tucker Goodrich also explain the mission of Zero Acre Farms, the development of cultured/fermented oil, whether cultured oil will be safe for consumption, whether we can feed the world with existing fats, and more."

Podcast Ep. 4: Jayne Rees Buxton on "The Great Plant Based Con"—with Dr. Brian Kerley

Brian and I have an interesting discussion with author Jayne Rees Buxton about her new book. She does a fantastic job of going through the evidence for and against a plant-based diet as a prescription for health and environmental salvation, and finds it wanting on both counts. 

While "Con" in the title doesn't solely refer to "confidence game"—we have a lengthy discussion about the legal review of the book—it's certainly an important element of this story.

This is an important book looking at the evidence behind the plant-based diet movement, as they are coming for all of us, and want to force us to follow their ideology regardless of our feelings.

I'm mentioned in the book in the discussion about seed oils, btw.

Physician's Committee for Responsible Medicine is run by Neal Barnard, not David Katz.

There are ~1 million physicians in the U.S. (https://www.statista.com/topics/1244/physicians/#topicHeader__wrapper), according to PCRM, they have 17,000 physician members (see link above), so that's 1.7% of practicing physicians as members. Of course the vast majority of the rest are *also* in favor of responsible medicine, so the name is a bit of a slander.
