    *Roasting nuts at home: Roasting nuts is a tricky business. If you like roasted nuts, I suggesting using temperatures at or below 265 - 285 F (130 - 140 C) for 20 minutes. The temperature sensitivity of nuts derives from their fragile omega-6 fats. But because macadamia nuts are low in omega-6, they are more stable. Even at 150 °C/ 300 °F, macadamia are okay. In fact, if you roast equal amounts of macadamia and walnuts at 300 F, the macadamia will end up with 1/30th the oxidized fats (pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25766....

      @nicknorwitzPhD  4 месяца назад +6

      The literature shows benefit from 15 - 30 nuts per day. I did out the path for someone else. If you buy the 1kg back from my landing page, it's $1.33 per day when applying the NICK10 discount code. So, all things considering, not a bank breaker IMHO. People spend far more on coffee and donuts daily for far less nutrition!@@eunicebelting

    Interesting. OT but I find this term "insulin resistance" quite irritating, it is used as if its a pathology, like there is something wrong, when it is as I understand it the mitochondria downregulating their sensitivity either when they have sufficient energy substrate, or lipid and glucose at the same time (Randal Cycle). So it is actually a positive response to the environment and not a pathology, it is the environment (diet/lifestyle etc) that is the problem and is reversed by eating only carbs or only fats or just not eating at all, no need to eat macadamia nuts? Although they are still delicious.

      Haha... yes. I agree I'm not a erythritol fan personally. Hence not adding them to the bundle. However, they use stevia in some of their products and the erythritol may be hold over from when we knew less about erythritol and potential impact on blood cloudiness... I'll ask. You have my word... although I may not be able to make them change formulation but I'll advocate for a switch to allulose.@@wr5347

      I'll DM Dr Chaffee right now (we're connected on WhatsApp) with this EXACT statement: "Hey man, Macadamia are awesome. I will fight you over this, either in a battle or wits or in a cage match or Hunger Games Style. Choose your weapon!" Feel free to ask him in the comments to any of his video if I did. You have my word.

      yes you are def much cooler than all other phd youtubers by making relaxing funny videos with a lot of knowledge. im now taking EPA to lower my LDL which isnt very effective , i wanted to try omega7 as the brand im buying EPA from is promoting Omega7 for lowering LDL. The reason why i didnt buy omega7 is that i am afraid of side effects as very little youtuber talking about omega7 , maybe the side effects is very bad lol

    • @CaptainDave05
      @CaptainDave05 4 месяца назад +3

      In chemistry there is the concept of isomers - chemicals with the same formula, but a different shape (L and R isomers are mirror images for example). Cis and trans isomers have key groups on the same side or opposite sides, respectively. The different shape means they act differently in the body, and may or may not fit properly into receptor sites in the cellular machinery (some may not fit as well, some get stuck there blocking others, etc). Hope this is clear, my biochemistry class was... 35 years ago?

    I ate a lot of walnuts for a year because I got bored of eating only avocados and olive oil for unsaturated fats to prevent high LDL.
    Then I developed moles on my skin and am still developing them.
    It turns out that walnuts are high in omega-6s and can cause cancer.
    Now I may develop skin and other cancers in the future.
