so i wanted to create a video to talk about dietary fats

and what specific type of fat your body thrives on

so the definition of thrive means survive very well on because there’s a

lot of different fats and it’s very confusing

and so let’s just take a look at this from the viewpoint of

the size of the fat you have short chain fatty acids

medium chain fatty acids and then you have long chain fatty acids and then you

also have another category over here which i’m not going to get into but it’s

a very long chain fatty acids let’s just try to make

this really really simple these right here are made from

fiber so your microbes actually break them down and turn them into

short chain fatty acids okay right here butyrate is one

and then it feeds your colon cells it also

decreases your risk for cancer it will also

help with insulin resistance that’s short chain fatty acids then we get

medium chain fatty acids as in mct oil now also realize that

some of the fats that provide this are over here too

like there’s some in butter coconut oil palm oil can make mct fats

now the unique thing about medium chain fatty acids

is that it doesn’t require bile to get absorbed so if someone has no

gallbladder or they have a liver problem like

cirrhosis especially or they have some type of malabsorption

issue or they just don’t have enough bile then

this would be a really good source of fat for fuel energy that’s a good thing

to thrive on right now let’s talk about long chain fatty

acids animal fats butter coconut oil palm oil

vegetable oils nut oils even seed oils and omega-3 fatty acids

these fats provide not only fuel and certain elements for structural parts of

our body but also they provide something called

the essential fatty acids okay that’s the omega fatty

acids and you have three and six now i don’t want to get

into six because i really think that the amount of omega-6 fatty acids that

we need is a lot less important than the omega-3 and i’ve

done a video on that and i’ll put the link down below

but the most important fat out of all of these right here is right here

omega-3 fatty acids epa and dha

because a good portion of your brain and your retina

needs this type of fat also this is anti-inflammatory and the majority of

the population is very very very low in this right here

so what dietary fat does your body really thrive on

it’s right here and you get this from fish oils cod liver oil

salmon you can even get it from algae now these other fats do provide energy

and they feed your colon but if you lower your carb your body

actually will get its energy from your own body fat

it won’t necessarily be dependent on the dietary fat

until you run out but most people have enough of that out of all the fats

that we need the one that’s most important is right here

all right thanks for watching
