  @sunsunsun said: @ZackVegas whole food pufa like nuts seeds and avocados (uncooked) are probably healthy in normal amounts in diet deep frying even with saturated fats is suboptimal imo Avocados don't have that much PUFA. An Avocado is about 5 ounces, and that would have about 13 grams of total fat. Of that total fat, only 1.5 grams is PUFA. The majority of Avocado fat is monounsaturated. Almonds are fairly high in PUFA. 2 ounces of almonds have 29 grams total fat, but only about 6 grams of PUFA. So, in normal amounts, those two examples might contribute 8 grams PUFA to a daily total. If other fats are eaten, they might be getting about 15 grams or so a day, which is close to the 1930 numbers. I'd agree that deep frying in things like beef tallow is sub optimal, but then again, so are nuts and avocados. But let's be honest.... avocados taste good, and french fries taste gewd. You should get enjoyment out of eating, and if something tastes great, you shouldn't have to avoid it just because it's not optimal. Deep frying in things like Tallow or HCO is benign to slightly healthy, as opposed to deep frying in high PUFA oils, which is certainly unhealthy.

  There's something fishy about Hans. He claims he's been doing all these self-experiments where he takes a mega dose of something for 2 weeks and does before and after blood tests, and frequently other tests like stool tests. If it were all true, he'd be practically living at a clinic! He says doctors are useless and that he pays for all his own private tests. But then makes a post about having a chat with his doctor, and discussing various results with him. He never posts his labs, as others have pointed out. He could just be making it all up, for all we know. What he does do, constantly, is try to make money off his claims. So I'm a bit dubious.
