This episode was recorded at the 2025 Western Dairy Management Conference in Reno, Nevada.Dr. Kononoff begins with some renewable fuels history. Since the renewable fuels standard in 2007, corn production for ethanol has increased to around 50% of the crop going to ethanol production. With the subsequent increase in fuel has come an increase in distillers grains and the industry has learned how to use them to feed cattle better. Later, the government created additional policy for next-stage renewable fuels, which has spurred biodiesel production. Currently, just under 50% of the soybean crop goes to fuel production. Soybean meal availability has increased and costs have decreased over the past few years. Most of the soybean oil is solvent-extracted. (5:57)Dr. Lock talks about increased acres of high-oleic soybeans in dairy-soybean crossover states. He summarizes some of the work his group has done on feeding high-oleic roasted whole soybeans as a replacement for soybean meal in the diet, citing the benefits of the oil in the diet as well as increased bypass protein. (15:41)The panel discusses whether canola meal, which is fairly high in oleic acid, would show similar benefits to feeding whole roasted soybeans. They also talk about how tariffs may or may not impact canola meal and canola oil prices. (24:26)Over time, the dairy industry has moved away from alfalfa as a protein source and toward soybean meal. The panel discusses the pros and cons of this change. (26:46)Dr. Kononoff gives his perspective on just how much soybean meal can be fed in dairy cow diets. Nitrogen excretion is an important consideration. He reminds the audience that renewable fuels policy is the reason behind many of the feed ingredient changes we've observed in the past 15-20 years, and that policy can change very rapidly. He emphasizes the industry needs to remain nimble and prepared to adapt. The panel also touches on pricing of feed ingredients in different parts of the country and how distillers grains are currently used in dairy diets. (31:08)Panelists share their take-home thoughts.

Amidst the pancake breakfasts and rodeo fun at the Calgary Stampede, canola farmers were looking for updates on tariffs with China. Andre Harpe, Chair of Alberta Canola and the Canadian Canola Growers Association, met with Prime Minister Mark Carney face-to-face, and trade with China was top of mind. "It was a great opportunity to have," says Harpe. "It's not every day you get the chance to chat with the prime minister. All we did was share our concerns about what's going on right now with China and the tariffs, so it was a good conversation." Earlier this year, China slapped retaliatory tariffs on canola and other ag products in response to trade restrictions imposed by Canada on Chinese-made electric vehicles, steel, and aluminum products. It has created considerable concern among canola growers.

Cooking oils are fundamental to culinary practices worldwide, bringing unique flavor, texture, and nutritional profile. The variety of cooking oils available today is vast, ranging from traditional options like olive oil and butter to more modern choices like avocado and coconut oil. One of the most widely recognized cooking oils is olive oil, particularly extra virgin olive oil. This oil is appreciated for its rich flavor and high monounsaturated fats, which are popular and support heart health by reducing harmful cholesterol levels. Olive oil is ideal for salad dressings, low to medium-heat cooking, and drizzling over finished dishes. However, its low smoke point makes it less suitable for high-heat methods like deep-frying. In contrast, refined olive oil has a higher smoke point and can handle more heat, though it lacks the robust flavor of its extra virgin counterpart. Another popular oil is coconut oil, which has gained a reputation for its unique composition of medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs). The body metabolizes these fats differently, potentially providing a quick energy source. Coconut oil is solid at room temperature and has a distinct tropical flavor, making it a favorite in baking and sautéing. However, its high saturated fat content has sparked debate among health experts, with some cautioning against excessive consumption due to potential links to increased cholesterol levels.Oils with high smoke points are essential for high-heat cooking methods like frying. With its mild flavor and impressive smoke point, Avocado oil is an excellent choice for searing, grilling, and roasting. It is also rich in monounsaturated fats and vitamin E, contributing to its heart-healthy profile. Similarly, peanut oil, commonly used in Asian cuisine, is another high-smoke-point oil that adds a nutty flavor to stir-fries and deep-fried dishes. Its stability at high temperatures makes it a reliable option for frying.Canola oil, derived from rapeseed, is another versatile option with a neutral taste and a moderate smoke point. It is low in saturated fat and contains a precious balance of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, making it a heart-healthy choice for baking, sautéing, and frying. Conversely, butter and ghee (clarified butter) are cherished for their rich, creamy flavors. Butter is a world staple in baking and other applications and adds depth to sauces and sautéed dishes, but its high saturated fat content should be used in moderation. With its lactose and casein removed, Ghee has a higher smoke point and is suitable for higher-heat cooking. It is also a key ingredient in many traditional Indian dishes.Seed oils, such as sunflower, safflower, and grapeseed oil, are often praised for their light flavors and high smoke points. These oils are typically high in polyunsaturated fats, particularly omega-6 fatty acids. Moderation in use and consumption is key when incorporating these oils into your diet. More importantly, continue to document yourself for better options.Health considerations are paramount when choosing cooking oils. Oils high in unsaturated fats, such as olive, avocado, and canola oil, are generally considered healthier due to their potential to improve cholesterol levels and drastically reduce The risk of heart disease. Trans fats, primarily found in partially hydrogenated oils, are particularly harmful and should be avoided altogether. They are linked to increased risks of heart disease and other chronic conditions. In addition to health, the environmental impact of oil production is an essential factor to consider. Palm oil, for instance, is widely used in processed foods and has a high smoke point, but its selection and production are often associated with deforestation and habitat destruction. Opting for sustainably sourced palm oil or alternative oils can help mitigate these tragic environmental concerns.Read the Complete text here.
If you've been hearing that canola is a killer, you're not alone. It's one of the so-called "hateful eight" seed oils: Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. says it's among the most deadly things you can eat, and Joe Rogan agrees. But is it true? This episode, we get to the bottom of the debate over the plant formerly (and still, in some places) known as rapeseed. Why does it have such an unfortunate name, and how did it transform into canola, at least in North America? Is it really engine oil? Does it actually contain a poisonous solvent? And why on earth are Brits buying up a fancy cold-pressed version by the gallon, as the new, home-grown olive oil? Are they roasting their potatoes with an inflammation- and disease-causing disaster? Listen in for the forgotten history and slippery science of this much discussed, little understood oil. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Today we're diving into an interesting topic that's been getting a lot of attention lately—linoleic acid from seed oils, and how it can influence fat cells, metabolism, and ultimately, our weight. Today, we're not diving into a particular peptide. Instead, let's shine the spotlight on linoleic acid, a PUFA (polyunsaturated fatty acid). Understanding how PUFA's work is crucial for optimizing our health journey, especially when we're incorporating peptide therapy, as these fatty acids play key roles in inflammation, impacting our fat cells, metabolism, and cell structure. Stick around as I try to break it all down. How do fat cells work in the body? First, let's take a step back and understand how fat cells work in the body. Our fat cells, also known as adipocytes, play an important role in regulating our energy balance. They store fat to be used as energy later, and they release hormones that help manage our hunger, metabolism, and inflammation. When we consume food, particularly excess calories, our bodies store this energy in fat cells. These cells don't just sit around passively; they grow, divide, and release various substances that help maintain homeostasis—or balance—within the body. But what happens when these fat cells are exposed to certain fats, like linoleic acid? What is linoleic acid? Linoleic acid is an omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA). It's essential for our bodies, meaning we need to consume it through food, because our bodies can't produce it on their own. However, in recent years, there's been growing concern about the overconsumption of linoleic acid, especially from processed foods containing seed oils. You might be asking, "Where do we find this linoleic acid?" Great question! Seed oils are extracted from the seeds of plants and are often used in processed foods due to their ability to stay stable at high cooking temperatures. They are also found in salad dressings and fried foods. Additionally, linoleic acid is found in nuts and seeds, though the concentration is much lower than in seed oils. Some of the most common seed oils include: Canola oil (from the seeds of the rapeseed plant) Sunflower oil (from sunflower seeds) Safflower oil (from the safflower plant) Soybean oil (from soybeans) Corn oil (from corn) Grapeseed oil (from grape seeds) Cottonseed oil (from cotton seeds) These oils are highly refined and contain high levels of linoleic acid, which, as we discussed, is a polyunsaturated omega-6 fatty acid. While they're widely used in cooking, baking, and processed foods, the problem arises when these oils are consumed in excess, especially in comparison to omega-3 fats like those found in fish and flaxseeds. So what does all this linoleic acid do to our fat cells, particularly in large amounts? Research has shown that excessive consumption of linoleic acid can have several notable effects on fat cells. 1. Fat Cell Hypertrophy Fat cell hypertrophy refers to the increase in the size of fat cells. When fat cells become swollen with fat, they can't function as effectively. In fact, linoleic acid has been shown to promote fat cell enlargement. In other words, when you consume too much of it, your fat cells may grow larger than they should, potentially leading to unhealthy weight gain and obesity over time. But there's more. As fat cells get larger, they also produce more of the hormones and signals that regulate your metabolism. This can cause an imbalance in your body's overall fat storage and energy regulation, leading to potential metabolic issues. 2. Impact on Fat Cell Hormones Fat cells secrete important hormones such as leptin, which regulates hunger and energy balance. However, excessive linoleic acid can alter this hormone regulation. When fat cells get too large and full of linoleic acid, they may lead to a decrease in leptin sensitivity, which can confuse the brain's hunger signals, potentially causing overeating or poor appetite control. This, in turn, may hinder your body's ability to regulate weight. And it doesn't stop there. Linoleic acid also affects adiponectin, another important hormone produced by fat cells that helps with fat breakdown and insulin sensitivity. Higher levels of linoleic acid have been linked to lower levels of adiponectin, which can result in poorer fat metabolism and higher risk for insulin resistance—a key factor in obesity and Type 2 diabetes. 3. Impacts fat cell division Now, let's talk about fat cell division—also known as adipogenesis. When the body does not have an excess of energy, fat cells primarily store energy in the form of fat (triglycerides) for future use. They remain relatively stable in size, and their role is to maintain energy balance by releasing stored fat when the body needs energy, such as during fasting or exercise. In contrast, when the body has excess energy, typically from overeating, fat cells take on a more active role by expanding in size (hypertrophy) to store the surplus calories. Once existing fat cells reach their storage limit, the body may also create new fat cells (adipogenesis) to accommodate the extra energy, contributing to weight gain. Studies suggest that excessive linoleic acid may interfere with fat cell division. This means the body could end up with fewer, but larger, fat cells. These large fat cells are not only inefficient at storing fat but are also linked to inflammation and metabolic diseases, including cardiovascular disease. How can I reduce my linoleic acid intake? Now, if you're worried about how much linoleic acid you might be consuming, you're not alone. In the modern Western diet, a typical person gets a significant amount of linoleic acid from seed oils (as we mentioned earlier) that are mainly found in processed foods. While these oils aren't inherently bad in moderation, the key, is balance. The body needs both omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids in a certain ratio, but many people today are consuming far more omega-6 than omega-3s, which can skew this balance and potentially lead to inflammation and metabolic issues. So, what can we do about it? Well, the first step is to be mindful of the oils you're using. Olive oil, avocado oil, and coconut oil are all great alternatives to seed oils, as they contain healthy fats that are less likely to promote fat cell enlargement or disrupt hormone function. And of course, whole, nutrient-dense foods—like vegetables, fruits, lean proteins, and fatty fish—can help keep your body in balance, supporting healthy fat cells, metabolism, and overall well-being.

Are seed oils healthy? The truth lies in the research. Dr. Roxie Becker does a deep dive into the data surrounding the controversial cooking oils. In a conversation with "The Weight Loss Champion" Chuck Carroll, Dr. Becker highlights misinformation surrounding seed oils, particularly the claim that they are inflammatory. Critics often reference a systematic review showing no significant difference in arachidonic acid levels in the body, regardless of linoleic acid intake. However, Dr. Becker also emphasizes that seed oils should not be the primary focus of a diet due to their high fat and caloric values, both of which contribute to obesity. The interview concludes with personal anecdotes about their vegan diets and health outcomes, underscoring the importance of evidence-based nutrition.

What You Will LearnStrategic Farming: The necessity of treating farming as a business, focusing on long-term planning and risk management.Crop Rotation: The benefits of a diverse cropping system to enhance soil health and yield.Market Awareness: The importance of prioritizing agronomic factors and weather conditions over short-term market fluctuations.Community Engagement: The role of educating landlords and fostering community connections to support sustainable practices.Mental Health in Agriculture: The emotional challenges of farm transitions and the need for creative outlets to manage stress.Strategic FarmingThe Joneses emphasize that farming should be treated as a business. This approach involves long-term planning and effective risk management to ensure sustainability and profitability. They highlight that the margins in farming are too thin to operate without a solid business strategy.Crop RotationImplementing a diverse cropping system is vital for improving soil health and reducing reliance on single crops. The Joneses advocate for a five-crop rotation system, which includes canola, wheat, grain sorghum, soybeans, and corn, to enhance overall yield and sustainability.Market AwarenessWhile market prices can influence farming decisions, the Joneses stress the importance of focusing on agronomic factors and weather conditions. They believe that understanding these elements is crucial for making informed decisions that benefit the farm in the long run.Community EngagementKaren highlights the significance of educating landlords and fostering community connections. By building relationships within the community, farmers can support sustainable practices and create a network that benefits everyone involved in agriculture.Mental Health in AgricultureThe emotional challenges of transitioning farm management can be daunting. Karen shares her experiences discussing mental health with fellow farmers, emphasizing the need for creative outlets, such as sewing, to manage stress and maintain well-being in the agricultural sector.Important QuoteRod Jones stated, "You have to treat farming like a business; the margins are too thin to do otherwise." This quote encapsulates the essence of their message about the importance of a business-oriented approach to farming. RedDirtAgronomy.com

Dr Steve takes a deep dive into the medical literature on the risks, benefits and alternatives to Canola Oil, a commonly used seed oil in the US and elsewhere. By the way, Canola oil gets its name from "Canada Oil Low Acid," (THANKS Canada) which is a more marketable name than "Rapeseed Oil." If you call it "Canola Oil" it is recursive since the 'o' in Canola stands for the word "oil." Therefore you're saying Canada Oil Low Acid Oil, which is stupid, so we should just call it "Canola" or Canada Low Acid Oil ... but I digress.

Well today we talk about Mike Israetel with @RenaissancePeriodization and how his opinion on rape seed oil (Canola oil) and seed oils is a bit misguided. Dr. Chris takes the route of explaining the poor studies that Mike is looking at to develop his opinion, and Bill just throws low brow insults. This is in response to his episode where he critiques Joe Rogans Diet/workout and he mentions his opinions on Seed Oils. We also answer a couple listener questions about implementing RP style work loads into BJJ. Time stamps coming soon.

Welcome back to our weekend Cabral HouseCall shows! This is where we answer our community's wellness, weight loss, and anti-aging questions to help people get back on track! Check out today's questions: Anonymous: Hi, I've listened to lots of your podcasts on oils, which are ok to cook with, which shouldn't be heated. I posted a comment about it online & got a lot of heat from someone saying seed oils are not unhealthy... they sent me 30 PubMed research done on people (not animals) also concluding they are not so bad, especially sunflower oil. Their explanation: Heating won't be an issue. Canola, sunflower and rapeseed have some of the highest smoke points (400-450 F), yes they produce polar compounds when overheated, but the lesson there is to simply not overheat them. On a household stove, this really isn't a problem. As for the whole processing thing, doesn't matter either. During the refining process, seed oils are heated to a temp that drives off volatile compounds (steam distillation, it drives off aldehydes, ketones, alcohols, short chain fatty acids), which makes the oils MORE stable. That's why refined oils have higher smoke points and a longer shelf life than their unrefined counterparts. And that temp that the oils are heated to is lower than the temp necessary to oxidize the oil. As for hexane, we've been using since the 30s, and there's no evidence to substantiate any risk/danger to our health when trace amounts are ingested. Refined oils extracted with hexane contain < 1 ppm of residual hexane. Filling your car with gas or using quick-drying glues give you loads more. Seed oils being dangerous is an unfounded and Seed oils being dangerous is an unfounded and insanely pervasive myth in nutrition, and it leads people to have food phobias and reach for tallow and butter (WAY worse, for a variety of reasons). This is what they said, a registered dietitian, citing 30 PubMed studies and when I wanted to send them your research from your shownotes, I couldn't find anything on this scale.. could you please link the research you cite so we can actually substantiate why seed oils are unhealthy to cook with and which? Is sunflower oil ok to consume when unheated and organic? Thank you for being amazing! Anonymous: Hi Dr Cabral, I recently heard that taking laxatives for over a year can cause nerve damage to parts of the GI. I wanted to ask if Magnesium also carries this risk, particularly oxygenated magnesium like Oxypowder or Mag07? Ive been taking Oxygenated Magnesium everyday since 2020 as its helpful and I seem to have some difficulty going without that. I had a hyperparathyroidectomy for hyperparathyroidism in July 2023. I believe my motility or peristalsis was impacted since atleast 2020, as such a disease can take years to manifest. I find that my motility has improved some since, but not enough for me to discontinue the Magnesium. I often times combine 2 capsules Oxypowder with 1 capsule of Equilifes Full Spectrum Magnsium every night. Even with this, I often times do not get complete evac. Lee: Hi Dr C. Im male an I often times get what feels like hotflashes almost immediately after eating. It feels like the body wants to get rid of whatever I just ate, right away. My Testosterone levels are at over 700 when I had them checked, so I dont think its low T. It seems like a histamine response thats often accompanied my heart burn and upper GI pain and discomfort. I do take quercetin and histapro, but I might only get relief from the hotflashes for short time. When I press against my stomach (right below the sternum) and take deep breaths, I can make my stomach gurgle. Its pretty loud and can do it consistently. Is that normal? Sometimes I get a bit of pain relief doing this, but it may only last a few seconds before the usual discomfort returns. This discomfort is there 24/7. Thanks Lara: Hi, I noticed you listed Wholetones in your resources page as your Binaural Beats go-to.. I understood that you need to listen to those over headphones for best results but Wholetones offers speakers with prerecorded music in specific frequencies.. could you please explain how it works and if it is better with this speaker or over headphones? Also, can you provide any free binaural beats resources that work? I would think probably not from youtube, but I could be wrong? Thank you for your explanation and help, you're amazing! Anonymous: Hello, I've always had achy teeth, receding gums & lots of problems. Now it looks like my enamel has “chipped off” on the tops of the teeth, next to the gums - before you could just see some of the roots because of the receding gums but now there's a lot of it and it's darker than the rest of the teeth (I eat a lot of blueberries). I don't remember if you ever said whether electric toothbrushes are ok or not and what would you recommend for this problem?
