    • But he also explains why it can be dangerous under certain conditions.
  • They explain the various fermentation processes of dairy. (11:45)
  • The problem with dairy isn’t the milk itself, but the system of handling it. (21:00)
    • Pasteurizing doesn’t make bad milk good; it makes bad milk not lethal.
  • Bill shares where to legally buy raw milk. (29:00)
    • However, this comes with the responsibility of doing your research and visiting the farms you are considering buying from.

Good and Bad Oils – Episode 2103

by Vinnie Tortorich

Episode 2103 – On this Sunday School episode, Gina Grad and Vinnie Tortorich talk good and bad oils, inflammation, saturated fats, cholesterol lies, and more.

PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS

GOOD AND BAD OILS

  • Not all oils are created equally.
  • This does not have to do with fat content.
  • Rather, some oils are highly processed and cause tons of inflammation.
  • Seed oils are among the worst.
  • STAY AWAY from corn oil.
    • This is similar to what they use in machinery!
  • Vinnie thinks soybean oil should be illegal.
  • Palm oil, however, is pretty good! Vinnie would recommend. 
    • Same with coconut oil and avocado oil.
  • Olive oil, ghee and butter are always a safe bet.
  • If anyone is talking to you about your cholesterol and oils, make sure you don’t just take that at face value.
    • So much of what we are told about cholesterol in the mainstream is BS.
    • We need cholesterol and if we don’t eat enough, our body will make more.
